ZeroAir's Review of SPERAS PZ18 Zoomable Flashlight

by ChenZoe 19 Mar 2024 0 Comments

The Speras PZ18 zoomable flashlight offers great throw or flood. The included 18650  cells can be charged via built-in USB-C! The e-switch has an indicator, too!

What's Included

  • 1* Speras PZ18 zoomable flashlight
  • 1* Speras EB31 18650 Lithium Battery
  • 1* Charging cable
  • 1* Lanyard
  • 2* Spare o-rings
  • 1* Manual

Build Quality and Disassembly
The build quality of the Speras PZ18 zoomable flashlight is good. There are not really any concerns to mention; the build quality is on par with the price.

The head can be pushed all the way in (flood) or all the way out (throw).

The head doesn’t have to be twisted to extend, which I find to be a nice feature.

Both the head and tail have springs.

The tailcap spring is much beefier, though. I couldn't get the cell tube off the head, but the tailcap has a very smooth removal.

Size and Comps
Flood: 131mm x 36mm x 25.4mm
Focus: 149.7mm x 36mm x 25.4mm
Weight: 137g (without cell)

Retention and Carry
Only a lanyard is included for carrying the Speras PZ18 zoomable flashlight. It attaches through this tailcap hole.

Power and Runtime
The Speras PZ18 zoomable flashlight is powered by a single lithium-ion cell, and an appropriate cell is included. It’s a 3100mAh 18650 and appears to be standard.

Charging
Charging takes place via a USB-C port near the head end.
Charging looks good, at around 1A. It’s also very consistent between A and C sources.


LED and Beam
Speras says the emitter is a Luminus SST-40. It’s cool white! In the flood setting, you’ll see the view below.

Summary and Conclusion
As far as zoomable lights go, the Speras PZ18 zoomable flashlight is a nice option. I like it mainly because it doesn’t have PWM! I do not love how cool white the output is. The build quality is good and the price is reasonable – this is probably a good option for those relatives who won’t let go of the notion that zoomable lights are the best lights!

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
