MANKER E02 III AAA/10440 Headtorch

The Manker E02 III is a next-generation micro flashlight engineered for versatility, durability, and maximum performance in a minimal footprint. Designed for everyday carry (EDC), outdoor adventures, emergency preparedness, or professional use, this compact light packs a powerful punch without compromising on build quality or functionality.

At just 72.3mm long and 15.2mm in diameter, the E02 III slips easily into a pocket, backpack, or gear pouch. Its slim profile and lightweight construction—only 21.2g in aluminum without battery—make it a near-invisible addition to your kit. The dual-fuel design is a standout feature: it accepts either a 10440 Li-ion battery (included, USB-C rechargeable) or standard AAA batteries, giving users flexibility in power sources. This makes it ideal for long hikes, camping trips, or emergency situations where battery replacement is key.

The light offers two distinct LED options. The 6500K Cool White LED provides maximum brightness and visibility, delivering 560 lumens in Turbo mode with a beam distance of up to 80 meters. This is perfect for navigating dark trails, signaling, or searching in low-light environments. Alternatively, the Nichia 519A-V1 4000K High CRI LED delivers 400 lumens with exceptional color accuracy (R9080), making it ideal for tasks requiring true color perception—such as reading, repairing electronics, or inspecting materials.

The PMMA TIR (Total Internal Reflection) lens ensures a smooth, even beam with minimal hotspots. Unlike standard reflector lenses, the TIR design maximizes light efficiency and coverage, delivering a wide, consistent flood that’s ideal for close-up work or illuminating small areas. The beam intensity peaks at 1,611 candela, ensuring strong penetration even in dense darkness.

The E02 III’s construction is both lightweight and robust. The aluminum version features Type-III hard-anodized black finish for enhanced scratch resistance, while the premium titanium variant offers a naked, corrosion-resistant but slightly heavier alternative with a refined, premium feel. Both versions are IP68 rated, meaning they can be submerged in water up to 2 meters deep for 60 minutes without damage. Drop-tested from 2 meters across six surfaces, it’s built to endure real-world abuse.

User experience is prioritized with thoughtful design touches: the improved knurling on the body ensures a secure grip, even in wet or gloved hands. The magnetic tailcap enables hands-free use on metal surfaces like car doors, tools, or lockers. The reversible 304 stainless steel clip offers secure attachment to clothing, backpacks, or gear. For those needing hands-free operation, the optional adjustable headband converts the light into a reliable headlamp.

Control is intuitive: a single metal button on the head allows for ON/OFF, mode cycling, and access to special functions. Double-click activates Turbo, triple-click cycles through Strobe, Beacon, and SOS—all at full brightness. The memory function remembers your last used mode, and the light includes low voltage protection that gradually reduces output before shutting off to preserve battery life.
