| Product | ETENWOLF FL2 Flashlight |
| Manufacturer | ETENWOLF |
| Model / Specification | FL2 |
| Product Line | Lighting Gear |
| Samples | 3 pcs |
| Sample IDs | FL2-1#, FL2-2#, FL2-3# |
| Test Environment | Ambient 23 °C, 60 % RH |
| Test Purpose | Simulate extreme environmental conditions and verify brightness levels and illumination across different brightness modes |
Test Equipment & Setup
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Constant Temperature & Humidity Chamber (恒温恒湿箱) | Used to maintain −20 °C and 65 °C test environments |
| Charger (充电器) | Used to pre-charge samples before discharge testing |
| Power Meter (功率计) | Used to measure electrical parameters during discharge |
| Ambient Temperature | 23 °C |
| Ambient Humidity | 60 % RH |
| Low-Temperature Test Point | −20 °C |
| High-Temperature Test Point | 65 °C |
| Soak Duration (each temperature) | 2 hours |
Test Procedure
- Pre-test: Confirm ambient laboratory conditions are 23 °C and 60 % RH. Fully charge all three FL2 samples using the specified charger.
- Low-temperature discharge test: Place samples inside the constant temperature & humidity chamber set to −20 °C. Allow samples to stabilize for 2 hours. Power on each sample and observe illumination behavior, brightness modes, and battery indicator status.
- High-temperature discharge test: Set the chamber to 65 °C. Allow samples to stabilize for 2 hours. Power on each sample and verify illumination, mode switching via the power button, and general functional operation.
- Post-test: Remove samples from the chamber and record all observations including any anomalies in illumination, button response, or battery indication.
- Acceptance criteria: Samples must operate normally (illuminate correctly across modes) at both −20 °C and 65 °C after the respective 2-hour soak period. Any failure to power on, illuminate, or switch modes constitutes a non-conformance.
Test Data & Results
| Sample ID | Test Condition | Issue Description / Observations |
|---|---|---|
| FL2-1# – FL2-3# | Low-Temperature Discharge Test (低温放电测试) | After 2 hours of storage at −20 °C, all samples powered on with normal illumination. The battery indicator displayed a red light upon power-on. |
| FL2-1# – FL2-3# | High-Temperature Discharge Test (高温放电测试) | After 2 hours of storage at 65 °C, all samples powered on with normal illumination. Power button switching (on/off) functioned normally. |
Observations: All three samples performed within expected functional parameters under both temperature extremes. The red battery indicator at −20 °C is consistent with reduced battery performance at low temperature and did not prevent normal illumination. No physical damage, flickering, or mode-switching failures were recorded under either condition.
Conclusion
| Field | Detail |
|---|---|
| Overall Result | For Reference Only (供参考 / ■) |
| Pass | Not formally checked (口合格) |
| Fail | Not checked (口不合格) |
| Standard Applied | Internal Control Standard |
| Test Conditions | −20 °C and 65 °C, 2-hour soak each; ambient 23 °C / 60 % RH |
| Samples Tested | 3 pcs — FL2-1#, FL2-2#, FL2-3# |
| Verdict | All samples passed operating temperature testing. The FL2 flashlight illuminates normally at both low (−20 °C) and high (65 °C) temperature extremes. |

Frequently Asked Questions
What does “For Reference Only” mean for this test result?
The report is marked “For Reference Only” (供参考) rather than a formal Pass or Fail. This designation indicates the test was conducted using an internal control standard rather than a published third-party or regulatory standard. The data is internally valid and shows normal function under both temperature extremes, but the result is not certified against an external benchmark such as ANSI/NEMA FL1 or IEC 60598.
Why did the battery indicator show red at −20 °C?
Lithium-ion and lithium polymer cells experience a measurable drop in terminal voltage at sub-zero temperatures due to increased internal resistance. The FL2’s battery management system interpreted this voltage drop as a low-charge state and triggered the red indicator. This is a normal electrochemical response and did not prevent the flashlight from illuminating. Charge the flashlight fully before use in cold environments to maximize runtime.
What temperature range is the FL2 rated for based on this test?
Based on this internal operating temperature test, the FL2 flashlight functioned normally across a range of −20 °C to 65 °C (−4 °F to 149 °F) after a two-hour soak at each extreme. This covers the operating conditions encountered in most outdoor, automotive, and industrial environments.
How were the samples prepared before testing?
Samples were fully charged prior to testing. They were then placed in a constant temperature and humidity chamber set to the target temperature (−20 °C or 65 °C) and allowed to thermally stabilize for two hours before any functional checks were performed. Ambient lab conditions were maintained at 23 °C and 60 % RH throughout.
