The Powertac E9 Gen 5 3000 Lumen 388m Throw Rechargeable LED Tactical EDC Flashlight is a compact, high-performance light designed for tactical, everyday carry, and outdoor use, ideal for law enforcement, camping, or emergencies. For example, its 3000-lumen output illuminates targets up to 388 meters, ensuring clarity in low-light conditions. With magnetic and USB-C charging, dual tail switches, and a durable build, it's perfect for professionals and enthusiasts. Backed by a lifetime warranty, the Powertac E9 Gen 5 for Tactical Use is a reliable, versatile choice.
Powerful Illumination for Any Scenario
The Powertac E9 Gen 5 features a CREE XHP50 LED, delivering up to 3000 lumens and a 388-meter beam throw with 37,636 candela for a balanced hotspot and spill. It's powered by an included 3200mAh 18650 Li-ion battery, offering the following modes and runtimes (note: step-down outputs extend runtimes):
Turbo: 3000 lumens for 2 hours
High: 1020 lumens for 2.2 hours
Medium: 350 lumens for 3.5 hours
Low: 100 lumens for 13.5 hours
Firefly: 10 lumens for 28 days
Strobe: 3000 lumens for 3 hours
The flashlight charges via a magnetic port or a removable cover revealing a USB-C port, taking about 3 hours with a 5V/2A charger, and features an LED battery indicator (green for 80-100%, red for below 20%). It has an IPX8 waterproof rating for submersion up to 2 meters and a 2-meter drop resistance. The crenelated bezel aids in self-defense, and mode memorization ensures quick access to preferred settings. Prolonged Turbo use generates heat, so handle cautiously. It also supports two CR123A batteries for emergencies, though with reduced output.
Durable and Ergonomic Design
Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum with a Type III hard-anodized finish, the Powertac E9 Gen 5 withstands extreme conditions, resisting corrosion and impacts. It measures 138mm in length with a 25.4mm head diameter, weighing 126g with the battery, making it ideal for pocket carry. The diamond-shaped knurling provides a secure grip, though some users note the tail switch protrudes, risking accidental activation. The double-coated glass lens maximizes brightness, and the removable pocket clip and holster offer versatile carry options. Dual tail switches (main for on/off, side for mode/strobe) enable one-handed operation, though the protruding switch may prevent tail-standing.
Ideal for Tactical and Everyday Use
The Powertac E9 Gen 5 3000 Lumen 388m Throw Rechargeable LED Tactical EDC Flashlight is tailored for law enforcement, security, and outdoor enthusiasts needing reliable, high-output lighting. For example, its 28-day Firefly mode supports extended camping trips, while the Strobe mode aids in signaling or disorienting. The intuitive interface (main switch for on/off, side switch for modes) and mode memorization enhance usability, though some users report Turbo mode issues if threads are dirty. The IPX8 rating ensures reliability in wet conditions, but rinse with fresh water after submersion. Avoid direct eye exposure due to its intensity, and monitor heat during Turbo use. With a lifetime warranty and compatibility with standard mounts, the E9 Gen 5 offers exceptional value, though its protruding switch and proprietary battery may limit some applications.

Note: Turn off the flashlight after use to prevent accidental activation, which could drain the battery. Insert the 18650 battery with the positive terminal toward the head, and remove the insulating film before first use or charging. The IPX8 rating supports submersion up to 2 meters but is not suitable for diving; avoid prolonged water exposure. Handle with care during Turbo mode to avoid heat buildup, and avoid shining the light directly into eyes. Store in a dry place and use the included magnetic/USB-C cable for optimal charging. Clean threads regularly to ensure Turbo mode functionality. Not compatible with Olight Olink due to design differences.
