In the ever-evolving world of portable lighting, Wuben continues to set new standards by merging innovation with practical functionality. The brand has long understood the frustration of a flashlight failing at a critical moment due to a dead battery and no immediate backup. With a commitment to addressing such real-world challenges, Wuben has built a reputation for crafting high-quality, reliable, and versatile lighting tools designed for both outdoor adventurers and everyday users.
Following the widespread acclaim of the Wuben X2 over the past two years, Wuben is proud to introduce the next-generation evolution: the Wuben X2 Pro. Developed in direct response to user feedback, the X2 Pro retains the compact, ergonomic form of its predecessor while delivering significant improvements in performance, usability, and flexibility.
One of the most groundbreaking enhancements in the Wuben X2 Pro is its innovative replaceable battery design. While the original X2 was praised for its portability, its fixed battery design limited users in situations where recharging wasn’t possible. The X2 Pro solves this by introducing a quick-release tail cap with a latch mechanism, allowing users to swiftly swap out batteries. It supports a wide voltage range and can run on two 14500 rechargeable batteries or two AA batteries. In emergencies, it can even function with just one battery—setting a new benchmark in the X series for convenience and reliability.
Lighting capabilities have also been taken to a new level. Abandoning the single floodlight reflector of the X2, the X2 Pro incorporates a composite lens system that delivers both spotlight and floodlight functionality. A newly developed rotary switch with press control allows users to seamlessly transition between beam types, while the adjustable focus lets you fine-tune the beam from a tight spotlight to a wide-area floodlight. This advanced optical system ensures optimal illumination for any scenario, from close-up tasks to long-range visibility.
Enhancing its versatility even further, the X2 Pro introduces a multifunctional side light without increasing the overall size of the device. This secondary light offers a bright 400-lumen white output, optional RGB signal lights, and even a UV mode. Its beam angle is adjustable up to 20 degrees, offering personalized directional lighting. Paired with a magnetic tail cap and a sturdy clip, the side light is ideal for hands-free work, emergency signaling, and helmet-mounted use.
The Wuben X2 Pro is designed with active users in mind. Included accessories allow the flashlight to be mounted on helmets using standard rail systems, transforming it into a powerful, head-mounted illumination tool for biking, caving, rescue work, and more. The flashlight also features a mode-lock function that prevents accidental activation during transport. Users can lock the X2 Pro into main light mode, side light mode, or completely disable it, offering peace of mind and preserving battery life.
Powering this high-performance tool are two built-in 920mAh lithium-ion batteries that deliver up to 130 hours of runtime in Moonlight mode. The X2 Pro supports USB-C charging and features an indicator to monitor charging status. Thanks to its parallel circuit design, it can operate with a single battery if needed, and is compatible with standard AA batteries for added flexibility on the go.
Despite its robust features, the Wuben X2 Pro remains remarkably compact, measuring just 1.61 x 0.82 x 3.54 inches and weighing only 134g. It features a premium clip for convenient EDC (everyday carry) use and is built with high-strength aluminum alloy for durability. The flashlight boasts IP68 waterproof protection and has passed a 1.5-meter drop test, making it ideal for tough environments and unpredictable conditions.
The Wuben X2 Pro is not just an upgraded flashlight—it’s a comprehensive lighting tool tailored for real-world use. It delivers 1500 lumens from its main light with a beam distance of up to 205 meters. Its six lighting modes include Turbo, High, Medium, Low, Flood, and Spotlight, ensuring it can meet a variety of lighting needs. Meanwhile, the side light expands utility with stepless dimming and selectable white, RGB, or UV output, making it suitable for EDC, emergencies, signaling, helmet use, and tactical applications.
Set to launch on Kickstarter on July 23rd, the Wuben X2 Pro invites early supporters to join its debut campaign. As an added incentive, if the campaign reaches $300,000 in funding, Wuben will include a tail switch accessory that offers momentary-on and brightness lock features, further enhancing the flashlight's control and usability.
The Wuben X2 Pro stands as a powerful example of user-focused innovation. It’s compact yet powerful, rugged yet refined, and versatile enough to handle everyday use and demanding field conditions alike. For those ready to experience next-level illumination, the X2 Pro delivers reliability, performance, and adaptability like never before.
