No focus at all

This flashlight is misrepresented by Sams club. Sams has the name of this flashlight as 'Bushnell 6500 lumen focusing rechargeable flashlight' but it is not focusing, and no where on the box or instructions or anywhere else in the world is this listed as focusing. Sams is the only one calling it that, and that is very misleading. The light is static, and there is next to no throw due to this. Another downside is that you only get the 6500 lumens for 35 seconds at a time.That's it. After that, it safety switches to 2000 lumens due to overheating. The light at 6500 lumen is fascinatingly bright and can potentially light up your whole house. Unfortunately, it only lasts for 35 seconds. This light is more like a lantern than a flashlight and has a niche function, but since it's basically a non focusing 2000 lumen flashlight, it's not really worth the price. Due to the misleading name at Sams and the 35-second limitation, as well as a 5 hour recharge time, I will be returning this flashlight. Be sure to read the box. It will tell you the same thing in this review. It was my mistake for getting overly excited about this and purchasing without doing my due diligence.

Not recommended

Like others have already stated, this light is a big disappointment to anyone looking for a good bright flashlight. This has an extra wide floodlight beam. I didn't see anything close to the advertised 6500 lumens brightness as expected. I guess the manufacturer used an unusual/misleading method of rating. I will be returning it asap.

Flood light not spot light

Bright but broad, beam doesn’t go far and can’t be focused.

Lacks a focus adjustment

It is not bright. The light beam is too wide and doesn’t carry more than 20 yards.

Happy hunter

Great light!! Very bright. Doesn’t adjust from flood to spotlight, but will definitely give you all the light you want or need

I wouldn't buy this again

Poor Range of light. It projects in a giant circle making it not that bright. No option to focus beam. If I still had the box I would take back for a refund. Bushnell usually has great products, this is not one of them.
