Currently being reviewed by The Guinness Book of World Records, The Torch is the world's brightest and most powerful flashlight. This flashlight is easily capable of melting plastic, lighting paper on fire within seconds, and if you want, frying an egg or a marshmallow on a stick! At 4100 lumens, The Torch is 100 lumens more powerful than The Polarion Helios, the former most powerful flashlight.

$299
Watch it burn paper, light matches, and light cigarettes here:

I used to joke that when I installed my Cibie lights on my old Mazda, I could peel paint off the car in front of me just by hitting my high beams. Now I guess I really can.

It burns through a whole pile of batteries in 15 minutes.

Power Supply: 12x2/3A 1500mAh Cells 14.4V

Battery Lifetime: 15 Minutes

And all that heat is just wasted energy.
