    I have an addiction to buying flashlights. I have spent many thousands on them over the past few years. I just bought an acebeam X50 40k lumen torch last week,
    Which nobody would ever need. And now i just got this. Dont end up like me.. this wuben is just a gateway torch. Be careful.

        I bought one a few months back and unlike in that video, it charges fine from USB-C to USB-C. I tested with a few cables, and different wall charges + power banks.

        The torch has had various minor updates over time, so presumably has had the issue fixed since that video review .

        • 8azinga on 03/05/2022 - 10:22

          The one I received yesterday does not charge from a Samsung usb c to usb c

          • Prong on 03/05/2022 - 18:16

            @8azinga: Ahhh, very interesting!

            I dug out a circa 2019 USB-C Samsung charger (but using a Baseus cable), and it charges my C3.

            I also plugged the 2019 Samsung phone to the torch, and the phone can charge it too. Same with charging from my Pixel.

            My other USB-C chargers are Google, and a variety of power banks. It also charges from my Dell laptop USB port no problems. One cable didn't make a great connection because space was tight, but worked if not moved too much.

            I am quite curious about what causes it, because it is mentioned on some of the Amazon reviews too. Does your one work with the Samsung charger if using a different cable?

            What about if charging it from the phone?

    • Prong on 03/05/2022 - 09:32

      Late reply, but I have one (bought a few months back) and it charges fine from USB-C to USB-C. Tested with a few cables, and different wall charges + power banks with no issue.

      The video review where it does not is from an earlier version of the torch, as it's had various minor updates over time.

    • Porker on 18/04/2022 - 20:50

      Yes, annoying that some sites have payment as final step, where others it's second last with 'confirm' being last.

      I didnt order this as i got it previously but you should get an email from [email protected] for the order confirmation. Mine arrived before paypal emails. Did you check your junk mail?
      If you made an account with Hekka, does the order show up there?

    • mksc09 on 25/04/2022 - 20:14

  • ShipShapeRC on 28/04/2022 - 10:13

    I can't log into their site. I got an order confirmations saying they would email me when shipped. No email but when I click on the "View your order" it shows it as shipped with a tracking order that is "unfound" when I click the link, but most disturbing is says it's coming by Argentinean Post (www.correoargentino.com.ar). Feeling a little uncomfortable. Anyone actually received it from this deal (I know it's only been a couple of weeks so far)?

      That's quick. I ordered a week earlier when it was cheaper and it only arrived today. This one had better shipping packaging and listed the sender as Buylogic with an Australian sender address which appears to be the Aramex address whereas the one i ordered in Feb came direct from China/Asia with much worse packaging.

    Picked one up when this deal went live. Freight was ridiculously slow (got a request from Hekka to provide a review, based on the shipment having left two weeks before), and it didn't arrive until yesterday.

    With that said, oh my. Nearly blinded myself with the damn thing. My old Dolphin torches in the laundry will be going out in the next hard waste.
