Battery, charger & powerbank: choose the ideal option for your flashlight

How to charge a flashlight

Check the battery contained in the torch. Many torches run on AA or AAA batteries, but it's more and more common to see torches with a built-in rechargeable battery. These are handy because you can charge them via USB. No hassle with batteries. Do you use your torch very often? Then a torch with a built-in battery or rechargeable batteries is a smart choice. It saves time and money.

The right charger

It is important to use the right charger for your batteries. Using an incorrect charger can lead to overheating, shorter battery life, and in extreme cases even fire or explosion.

Also pay attention to how you charge the battery. Some torches have an integrated USB-C port, which makes charging super fast. Ideal if you're on the move. For more versatility, separate chargers are a good option. This allows you to charge multiple batteries at once, which is handy if you always want to have extra batteries with you. Choose a charger that suits your battery type, such as a model suitable for lithium-ion or NiMH batteries.

Tip: also use a power bank

Do you go camping or hiking often and want to make sure your torch is always charged? Then a power bank is a good solution. You can charge your torch with a powerbank via USB if the powerbank provides the right output compatible with the torch. With a powerbank in your pocket, you are always prepared! Always have light at hand when you need it.
