In the dynamic world of portable lighting, Wuben has continuously pushed the boundaries of innovation and functionality. Have you ever found yourself in a critical situation where your flashlight's battery died, and you had no immediate replacement? Wuben understands these challenges and is committed to solving them.
As a brand committed to meeting the diverse needs of outdoor enthusiasts and everyday users alike, Wuben has garnered a reputation for delivering high-quality, reliable, and versatile flashlights. Building on the success of the Wuben X2, which has been a favorite for two years, we are excited to introduce the next evolution in our lineup: the Wuben X2 Pro.
The Genesis of Wuben X2 Pro
The development of the Wuben X2 Pro was driven by extensive user feedback and a commitment to enhance the flashlight's functionality without compromising on its compact and ergonomic design.
The Wuben X2, while highly regarded for its performance and portability, presented a limitation with its non-replaceable battery design. Users expressed a desire for more flexibility and utility, particularly in critical situations where power sources might be scarce. This invaluable feedback laid the groundwork for the revolutionary changes incorporated into the Wuben X2 Pro.
Key Features of the Wuben X2 Pro
1. Innovative Replaceable Battery Design for Uninterrupted Use
One of the most significant upgrades in the Wuben X2 Pro is its replaceable battery design. Unlike its predecessor, which had a fixed battery, the Wuben X2 Pro features a quick-release tail cap with a latch mechanism. This innovative design allows users to easily and swiftly replace the battery, ensuring uninterrupted illumination in any situation.
- Wide Voltage Range Compatibility: The circuitry has been re-engineered to support a wide voltage range, making the flashlight compatible with both 2*AA batteries and 2*14500 batteries. In emergency scenarios, even a single AA or 14500 battery can power the device, providing unparalleled flexibility and reliability.
- First in Series: This makes the Wuben X2 Pro the first in the X series to support replaceable batteries, setting a new standard for user convenience.
2. Advanced Optics System for Versatile Lighting
In response to the demand for more versatile lighting solutions, the Wuben X2 Pro abandons the single floodlight reflector design of the original X2. Instead, it features a sophisticated composite lens system that combines both spotlight and floodlight capabilities.
- Seamless Transition: Through extensive research and development, we have integrated a rotary switch with a press function, allowing users to seamlessly transition between beam types.
- Adjustable Focus: The adjustable lens system enables the beam to focus from a tight spotlight to a wide floodlight and vice versa, providing optimal illumination for various scenarios.
3. Multifunctional Side Light for Enhanced Usability
The Wuben X2 Pro goes beyond just a powerful main light. Without increasing the overall size of the product, we have incorporated a multifunctional side light.
- 400-Lumen White Light and RGB Signal Lights: This side light includes a 400-lumen white light and RGB signal lights, greatly expanding the range of applications.
- Adjustable Angle: The side light's angle can be adjusted up and down by 20 degrees, allowing users to customize the direction of the light for more personalized use.
- Magnetic Tail Cap and Clip: Additionally, the magnetic tail cap and clip enhance the usability of the side light, making it perfect for hands-free tasks, signaling, and emergency situations.
4. Helmet Mount Compatibility for Active Users
Understanding the diverse needs of our users, we have included a set of accessories that allow the Wuben X2 Pro to be mounted on a helmet. These accessories are compatible with standard helmet rails and can be attached to the flashlight's clip.
- Transformative Helmet Light: This feature transforms the Wuben X2 Pro into a highly effective helmet light, ideal for activities such as biking, caving, and search and rescue operations.
5. Mode Lock Function for Safety and Ease of Use
Safety and ease of use are paramount in flashlight design. To prevent accidental activation, the Wuben X2 Pro comes with a mode lock feature.
-
Three Modes: This function allows users to lock the flashlight in one of three modes: main light, side light, or locked. This ensures that the flashlight will not accidentally turn on in a bag or pocket, conserving battery life and providing peace of mind.
Kickstarter Launch and Special Feature
The Wuben X2 Pro will make its debut on the Kickstarter platform on July 23rd. We invite all our customers and supporters to join us in this exciting launch. As a special incentive, we have integrated a connector at the tail of the flashlight.
- Special Incentive: If our crowdfunding campaign reaches $300,000, we will include a tail switch that enables momentary-on and brightness lock functions, further enhancing the operational versatility of the Wuben X2 Pro.

Where can I buy one?
Hi J,
Thanks for your feedback! Our side light has a red light mode with 10 lumens.

The Wuben Team
Why doesn’t it have single colour RGB modes? That would be a lot more useful than flashing ones. Having both would be fine but it definitely needs steady R/G/B as well as mixes.
Hi Keith,
You can use rechargeable Lithium Ion AA batteries, but just a heads up, you can’t recharge them directly in the flashlight. As for power, AA batteries max out at 3 watts, while 14500 batteries can go up to 15 watts.
Best,
The Wuben Team
Hi Will it be able to run on rechargeable Lithium Ion AA, i.e 1.5v x 2. Also what is the output & range with AA’s opposed to 14500’s please. Kind regards
