OxyLED® MD20 Super Bright Portable 250 Lumen CREE LED Rechargeable, Zoomable Flashlight with Clip!

Have you ever needed just a little more light to find something under the couch?  Have you ever been in your car at night and dropped you cell phone under your seat?  Have you ever heard that bump in the night?  Have you ever got up in the middle of the night, tripped over your “wife’s” shoes, then fell down the stairs, and when you got up ran into a wall, stubbed you toe, and banged you knee on the edge of that stupid oversized end table in the living room?  Well do I have the answer for you!

The OxyLED MD20 250 lumen flashlight comes in a very nice hard plastic case with 4 latches.  Inside the case you will find a nice foam lining.  The case holds the flashlight and all of the MD20’s accessories.  OxyLED includes a rechargeable Li-ion AA battery and charger.  The included charger has the flip up prongs to plug directly into the wall without having to find a cable. I prefer the flip up prongs because it is less to keep up with.

I am very impressed with the IPX-6 water resistant rating. What does an IPX-6 rating mean you say?  Well the official definition is: Protected against heavy seas - Water projected at all angles through a 12.5 mm nozzle at a flow rate of 100 liters/min at a pressure of 100 kN/m2 for 3 minutes from a distance of 3 meters.   I love the knowing that I can go out in the pouring rain and that the MD20 will continue to work perfectly.  Well, as long as I don’t drop it in a deep puddle, it will continue to work perfectly.

The MD20 uses a Cree LED, of course, with a lifespan of over 50,000 hours.  Your will find that the flashlight is made using aircraft grade, durable aluminum alloy.  This makes the MD20 feel very nifty in the hand.  The housing has a very nice ridge area for excellent grip and control. OxyLED has gone over and above with included belt clip.  You can easily see the bright orange power switch on the end of the light.  I feel the zoom function, push and pull is far superior to the twist zoom you find on other lights.  The MD20 has 3 modes: high, low, and strobe.  You can cycle through these modes by completely pressing the switch or while the power is on you can cycle through with a half press.

I recommend the OxyLED MD20 to anyone who needs a portable, very bright, well built, water resistant light.  I like the MD20 so much I am buying 10 of them for Christmas gifts this year.
