VitalTac VT-1 is a rechargeable handheld flashlight for the moments you reach for one — a power outage, a late-night dog walk, a roadside emergency. Simple enough to leave in a drawer, built well enough that you’ll have it for years.
No app, no subscription, no proprietary refills. Click on, pick a brightness, slide the head for spot or flood, and recharge over USB-C when it’s empty.
Designed for general residential and outdoor use. For specialized search-and-rescue or industrial work, a purpose-built professional light is the right tool.
A firm click on the rear button turns the light on at the last-used brightness. A second click cycles to the next mode.
Low for close-up, Medium for everyday, High for power outages and outdoor use. A long press accesses Strobe.
Slide the head forward for a focused spot, or back for a wide flood. The full range is mechanical — no electronics in the bezel.
When the indicator blinks red, plug in the included USB-C cable. Approx. 3.5 hours from empty to full at 5 V / 2 A.
Click the tail switch to cycle Low, Medium, High. The trade-off between brightness and runtime is published below — nothing rounded up, nothing implied.
Soft output for reading a map, finding a light switch, or working close-up without dazzling yourself. Up to 30 hours per charge.
Balanced beam for walking the dog, taking out the trash, or lighting a basement. The mode most owners leave it in. Up to 8 hours per charge.
Maximum 1,200 lumens for power outages, searching outside, or lighting up a wide area. Shorter runtime in exchange — up to 2 hours per charge.
A reputable LED, a hard-anodized aluminum body, and a battery you can replace through the warranty if it ever wears out. Made to be a long-term piece of household kit, not a single-season purchase.
Output, runtime, beam distance, ingress protection, dimensions — the figures you'd find on the box of any reputable light. Nothing rounded up, nothing implied.
No upsells, no add-on bundles at checkout. One price, one box, the full kit.
“We didn’t want to sell another ‘9,000-lumen tactical’ gimmick. We wanted to make the small, honest light you actually grab when the power goes out — the one that fits in a kitchen drawer, runs on a standard battery, and tells you what it is on the side of the box.”

Yes. It uses a 21700 lithium-ion cell — a common rechargeable size you can replace if it ever wears out. The cell ships pre-installed and charges directly inside the light over USB-C.
Up to 30 hours on Low, up to 8 hours on Medium, and up to 2 hours on High output. A full recharge from empty takes about 3.5 hours over a 5 V / 2 A USB-C charger.
The light carries an IPX7 rating, meaning it has been tested for immersion in 1 meter of fresh water for up to 30 minutes. It handles rain, snow, and accidental drops in a puddle. It is not rated for diving or long-term submersion.
Every VitalTac VT-1 is covered by a 1-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Registration is optional — your order receipt is your proof of purchase. See the warranty page for full terms.
Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM ET. Average response time is under one business day.
Three reviews from verified purchasers. We don't curate to only show five-star feedback — mixed reviews appear here too.
“I work on my own cars and I'm constantly under a vehicle with a light. The VT-1 throws a clean beam at the right color temperature so I can actually tell brake-fluid from coolant. The USB-C charging is the part I'll never go back from.”
“I walk my dog at 5 AM in winter and I needed something brighter than my phone but not the size of a baton. Medium output lasts the whole week before I have to charge it. The flood-to-spot adjuster is genuinely useful — flood for the trail, spot to check on movement in the trees.”
“Bought this after the last storm took our power out for a day and a half. The light has done what it's supposed to do. Four stars because the strobe mode activates with a long press, which my eight-year-old discovered by accident; we'd rather it required a separate gesture. Otherwise nothing to complain about.”
