Wicked Lasers - "The Torch"

Wicked Lasers

Introduction:

One of the most important things to have is a good flashlight. Today, Wicked Lasers has sent us the "brightest" flashlight in the world - The Torch. We say "brightest" in quotes because it's still being reviewed by the Guinness Book of World Records. With a whopping 100W bulb and 4100 Lumens output, Wicked Lasers claims that their Torch will burn paper, light matches, and even cook an egg. Today we plan on testing the Torch to see if it can do just that.

Wicked Lasers' Take:

Currently being reviewed by The Guinness Book of World Records, The Torch is the world's brightest and most powerful flashlight. This flashlight is easily capable of melting plastic, lighting paper on fire within seconds, and if you want, frying an egg or a marshmallow on a stick! At 4100 lumens, The Torch is 100 lumens more powerful than The Polarion Helios, the former most powerful flashlight. Looking to buy a bright flashlight? This flashlight torch will not disappoint you.
So how did we make such a powerful, bright flashlight? The Torch uses an incredible halogen light bulb rated at 100 Watts and runs on a custom built high voltage rechargeable battery. To keep the front lens from shattering due to the immense heat generated, The Torch flashlight is equipped with a specialized heat resistant glass lens and is encased in a durable, military grade aluminum case.
