When deep diving into the world of flashlights, it’s easy to get blinded by the power of pocket rockets. But being EDCers, it also pays to have a compact light you can rely on that’s always within reach. That said, thanks to modern tech, a small light doesn’t have to translate into a poor performer. It’s certainly the case with Klarus’s Mini One Ti. At barely the size of a finger it seems too small to be useful as an everyday light, but its disappear-in-your-pocket dimensions is where it’s just getting started.
The Mini One Ti comes with a 10180 battery, an onboard-rechargeable lithium-ion cell that, while uncommon, brings great capacity and voltage to power a light even this small. When paired with its XP-G3 LED and TIR optics it’s able to output a floody, useful 130 lumens on High for 24 minutes or 8 lumens on Low for over 5 hours—not the output you would expect from a light smaller than its AAA peers of yesteryear. Output levels are controlled via a 3-stage twisty interface, opening on Low then ending on High. It’s simple and effective, and one you can navigate one-handed while the Mini One is hanging off a keychain or belt loop.
And easily hanging off your clothing or pack is something the Mini One does best. At only 1.73” long and weighing a scant 0.56oz thanks to its lightweight titanium construction, it’s a great choice as a main or secondary backup light. It takes up next to no space so it won’t get in your way, and still has enough juice for when you need a light the most. Add one to your EDC by heading over to Amazon at the link below.
