There’s a special kind of calm that settles in once the sun drops. The air cools, sounds carry farther, and familiar trails take on a new edge. If you’ve ever pedaled down a forest path or set up camp past midnight, you know how quickly the dark becomes real—and how much you depend on good light. Ordinary flashlights rarely hold up when the terrain gets rough.
That’s where the WUBEN X1 Pro stands apart. It isn’t just another torch with an oversized beam. It’s built for explorers who need equipment that can survive hard use, wet weather, and the occasional drop without missing a beat.

Compact, confident, and made to last
The X1 Pro feels dense and deliberate in the hand—383 grams of solid aluminum shaped with angled lines and a grip that doesn’t slip, even with gloves on. At under 14 centimeters long, it’s small enough to fit in a jacket pocket or bike pouch, yet powerful enough to light a field.
The housing shows careful thought: floating copper midframe, visible cooling slots, and a matte finish that hides scratches. The single button layout is simple, so you can find it fast in the dark. It’s not flashy. It’s purposeful.
Lighting that adapts to every situation
Three high-output LEDs create a wide 125-degree flood for lighting camps or work areas, and a narrow beam that reaches up to 337 meters. You can switch modes on the go with one hand—no confusing sequences or guesswork.
The range runs from Eco to Turbo. Turbo, at 13,000 lumens, easily turns a trailhead or clearing into daylight. Drop the level and it’ll keep glowing for hours, saving battery life for long hikes or remote nights where charging isn’t an option.
More than a flashlight
Inside are two replaceable 21700 lithium batteries with a combined 9,600 mAh capacity. That’s serious runtime. And if your phone or GPS dies mid-trip, the X1 Pro doubles as a 15 W USB-C power bank. One cable covers both lighting and charging.
A detachable cooling fan quietly pushes heat away during heavy use. It keeps the output steady without throttling down—no sudden dimming, no hot casing.
Ready for rain, dust, and motion
With an IP54 weather rating, the X1 Pro shrugs off rain and grit. The frame handles rough treatment and the occasional fall without showing much damage. It comes with a rope hole for a wrist strap and a new bike mount, letting you go hands-free on night rides or long commutes.
When you’re fixing a tire on a dark roadside, walking through a canyon at dawn, or leading a group back to camp, you want gear that just works. The WUBEN X1 Pro does exactly that—solid, bright, and built to keep going as long as you do.
