More of a lamp

It will light up a room but not a focused directional beam. More of a lamp than what I use a flashlight for.

No long distance Beam

Very bright with good charge life. But a very wide angle beam, no way to dial in a more spotlight beam. Very good to see 10-15 feet around you, but useless to see anything off in the distance.

Pretty bright but no focusing

This flashlight is bright but there is no option to focus the beam. I wanted brightness at a distance and this is lacking in that regard. It's more of a flood light.

Bright lite

Nice and bright, rechargeable, however; no way to narrow or adjust the beam so bright light is spread very wide. It lights up the whole room if power is out!!

Highly Disappointed

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.

Useless

Awful. Too wide. Only illuminates about 20 feet in front, then very weak to nonexistent illumination. Useless. Really a shame because of Bushnell’s outstanding reputation for quality products. Please Bushnell, take a critical look and compare the effectiveness of Nebo and 750 DL

reply from Bushnell

I'm sorry to hear that your Bushnell light did not meet your expectations. Please see the below list of factors that may affect the illumination issues you may be encountering:Beam Distance Testing: The 100-meter rating is measured using specialized instrumentation. The human eye often can't accurately perceive beam distance, especially at longer ranges.Mode Selection: The user may have been using a lower brightness mode, which would reduce the beam distance.Battery Level: If the battery charge is even slightly reduced, the light may automatically adjust output to conserve power, which can affect the perceived beam distance.Testing Conditions: Beam distance tests are conducted under optimal conditions, which may differ from the user's testing environment.Environmental Factors: Ambient light, weather conditions, and reflective surfaces can all impact how far the beam appears to reach.If you have any additional questions or concerns, please let us know by emailing support@insight2design.com - Bushnell Customer Support

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.

Bright light

Good light, wish you could focus the beam out to a greater distance but it is really good even so!

Decent Flashlight

Decent Light. No adjustment for output limits the uses. Overly bright for not being able to adjust.
