Unboxing Gallery

From the gallery above and as you may have guessed, mophie have created a very solid flashlight. The main torch supports two lighting strengths which is activated by pushing the button and under it is the LED battery metre. On the flip side, there is a work/SOS light that offers a white and red LED which like the torch is quite bright. On the side of the flashlight is a USB port and on the bottom, there is a charging port, connection for the car jumpers plus a button to activate this feature.

Final Thoughts?

With a recommended retail price of $199.95AUD (April 2022), the powerstation go rugged flashlight is indeed a very rugged product that is not only professionally built but very sturdy. Given the lumens of the light, it is super bright and is the perfect torch to have in your car should you need some emergency lighting (e.g. change a tyre) and the ability to jumpstart your car. Then you have the work light and SOS feature which again increases the scope of this flashlight and of course a USB connection to charge a myriad of smart devices.

Highly Recommended!
