WUBEN X1 Pro Review (2026)

The WUBEN X1 Pro is a compact high-output light with an unusual feature: a small removable fan that switches on when the head gets hot. It is one of the seven high-output lights compared in our brightest flashlight in the world guide.

This review is research-based: the specifications below come from the live Amazon listing, checked on 6 November 2026, and from the maker’s or retailers’ own pages where noted. We did not use this light ourselves.

Key Specifications

Best For / Skip If

Best for: buyers who want over 10,000 lumens for under $150 from a light that can also top up a phone in an outage.

Skip if: you want the lightest pocket carry — the Nitecore EDC37 is flatter, or you dislike moving parts in a flashlight.

The Cooling Fan

WUBEN says the fan starts automatically when the light heats up, or manually with five presses of the switch, and that it helps the X1 Pro hold brightness for longer. It is removable. Optional mounts (not included) let it sit on a bike bar or a tripod.

Safety first: at these outputs the head and body get hot within minutes, and the beam can dazzle at long range. Never point it at people, animals, drivers or aircraft, keep it away from children, and lock it out before it goes into a bag. Follow the maker’s manual for charging the built-in lithium battery.

Limitations and Compromises

At 13.5 oz it is heavy for its size, the battery is built in, and the fan adds a part other lights do not have. The listing asks owners to lock it with four presses when not in use.
