The 14 Best Titanium Flashlights in 2022

Combining a precious metal with a unique design and distinct markings, the MecArmy FL02 not only brings the power of 360 lumens to your keychain, it functions well as a conversational piece, too. CNC-machined from TC4 titanium, it features an ergonomic design and a titanium switch that gives easy access to its Turbo mode, as well as a Strobe mode for emergencies. And since it’s meant to reside on your keychain, the lens of the FL02 has been double-coated to prevent scratches. Different themed designs make it easy to pick one that will go well with the rest of your gear.

If you’re looking for a truly diminutive option for a titanium light, the TEC Accessories Pixel Ti provides a tiny, yet solid option. It outputs 21 lumens from its warm white Nichia LED, packaged in a precision-crafted Grade 5 titanium chassis that’s ready for the rough and tumble of being attached to your keychain or zipper pull. It relies on a simple twist operation, and even sports a slot for mounting a tritium vial on its tail. Battery replacement is easy, as it uses four of the commonly available LR521 alkaline watch batteries.

This is a new edition of the titanium version of RovyVon’s successful keychain light platform. Slightly larger overall at 2.26″ long and now sporting a larger 260mAh Li-Po rechargeable battery, it can reach a maximum of 650 lumens from the high-power Cree XP-G3 LED, or 450 lumens from the eye-pleasing 90+ CRI Nichia 219C variant. A tough and lightweight titanium chassis, IP65-rated weather resistance, and the optional pocket clip that allows for hat brim mounting make the new RovyVon A4x a highly functional option for a titanium keychain light.

The AAA flashlight platform has long been a go-to for EDCers for the balance of portability and power, and few have mastered the platform like Foursevens (now under Prometheus Lights). The Foursevens Preon P1 MkIII matches the aesthetics of its Grade 5 titanium construction with practical everyday performance. The choice of a Nichia 219C LED gives the beam an eye-pleasing and color accurate tint, enhanced by a textured reflector and an optical-grade anti-reflective glass lens. Meanwhile, the included NiMH AAA battery gives the light a stable and rechargeable power source, while saving you the long-term expense of disposable batteries.

The market is flooded with AAA flashlight designs, as well as titanium lights. But only a few are able to match the craftsmanship and value of the Reylight Ti Pineapple Mini. The robust titanium chassis features a grippy machined center section, as well as a deep-carry pocket clip. The reverse clicky tail switch keeps operation easy and one-handed, while featuring a slot for an optional tritium vial. Turned on, it takes power from regular AAA batteries or 10440s to pump out up to 240 lumens from its high-CRI Nichia 219B LED, providing eye-friendly and usable light in a highly pocketable and sturdy package.

This new light from Manker features a stainless steel deep carry clip for easy and discreet portage, as well as a 94mm long grooved titanium alloy body that fits the hand well while operating its tail switch in an overhand grip. The OSRAM NM1 LED and smooth reflector combine to create a compact AA thrower with a 400 lumen beam that can reach up to 250 meters when powered by an optional 3.7V 14500 battery. The tail switch lies flush with the tail end of the light, allowing it to stand, and it also features a slot for installing a tritium vial.

The “D” series of lights from EAGTAC have distinguished themselves as excellent performers in the compact light arena. The Limited Edition D3A MkII Titanium elevates the line by giving one of their bestsellers a refined and robust titanium shell. Inside, an A750 RC LED Driver combines with a warm-tinted Nichia 219C emitter to provide up to 353 lumens of eye-pleasing light. The D3A’s ability to take on both regular AAs and 14500s gives you flexibility for its power source. Its four modes are accessed via both a twist interface and a glow in the dark tail switch. If you’re looking for something more compact, the EAGTAC D3C is essentially the same light, but utilizes CR123A or protected RCR123 button-tops in its shorter chassis.

Pushing 700 lumens out of a AA-sized pocket light is quite a feat—especially with a constant and flicker-free beam—and it’s one that the Klarus Mi7 Ti is able to achieve. This pocket rocket gets enhanced with a slim titanium alloy body, while retaining all the features and utility of its aluminum predecessor. An electronic side switch evokes classic flashlight utility and provides a convenient one-handed interface. Three clicks activates the Battery Capacity Indication feature, letting you know how much juice you have left based on the number of flashes the light makes.

This refined 2020 redesign of Lumintop’s popular AA light brings premium aesthetics and a Cree XPL-HD LED that tops out at 650 lumens from a 3.7V 14500 battery. Four output levels and a hidden strobe keep it highly functional, and the gold painted clip provides an accent to the IP68-rated titanium alloy body. The classic tail switch design from the TOOL series allows for tailstanding and the attachment of a lanyard for easier retrieval from your pocket or bag. The Lumintop TOOL AA 2.0 Ti takes all the right cues from its predecessors, offering value that’s more than skin deep.

Larger but still a pocket-friendly EDC light, the RovyVon A24 plays big brother to the compact A4x. With its compact 2.9″ TC4 titanium body and 2.2 ounce weight, it brings robust functionality as a medium-sized everyday option. A metal side switch handles the interface which includes multiple modes: SOS, Strobe, three levels of regular output, a 1-lumen Moonlight, and a Turbo that throws 1,000 lumens from the onboard Cree XP-L HD LED out to 150 meters. A slot on one end of the light lets you easily thread in a keyring, while a screw-on removable clip gives you the option for pocket carry.

Looking more like premium-priced custom flashlights, the Mechforce Mechforce brings the performance to back up the distinct aesthetics of its 84mm long stonewashed titanium body. The Turbo version squeezes 1,300 lumens out of the triple warm white Nichia 219CT LEDs, creating a wall of light when you need it. Internally, dual QLITE springs create a stable and shockproof cradle for its 18350 battery. The head of the light features 16 separate slanted slots that you can eventually fill with tritium tubes, further amplifying the aesthetic of this high-performance pocket torch.

A long-standing favorite and grail light for flashlight enthusiasts and connoisseurs, the McGizmo Haiku offers a lot of customizability in a Grade 5 titanium chassis reminiscent of a certain Jedi’s lightsaber. It’s served as the benchmark for custom titanium flashlights for over a decade, and offers various choices of emitter, driver, and fuel source, from AA to 16650 Li-ion. The reflector, refined over many iterations of the light, is the secret of the Haiku’s success—balancing the light’s flawless beam between flood and throw better than most, if not all, competing designs.

This crowd favorite light has its roots as a joint project between the German TLF and international BLF online communities. Beyond the wide base that helped design and bring this flashlight into fruition, the original aluminum FW3A it has established itself as value-packed option for a high-output 18650 light that runs on the versatile enthusiast Andúril interface. The FW3T upgrades the original with a robust titanium chassis and the option for a 95 CRI neutral white Luminous SST-20 that tops out at 1,600 lumens to go alongside the 2,800 lumen Cree XP-L HI alternative. Looks-wise, you have some choices: pick from Polished, Stonewashed, or a distinctive titanium and copper hybrid.

The titanium-clad variant of the heirloom-quality Muyshondt Flieger takes a design inspired by old school aviation icons and builds it to last. A titanium domed tail switch button sits recessed in a titanium housing provides a reliable clicky mechanism that allows the light to tail stand while giving you access to five output levels from 1 to 720 lumens. On the other end, a sapphire crystal lens protects the warm white emitter. Internally, multiple o-rings help ensure the weather sealing and water resistance, bolstered by smoothly machined square threads. Also inside, gold coated circuitry safeguards the efficiency and durability of the light’s internal functions over time. Choose from Turned, Brushed, or Stonewashed finishes to better match the rest of your EDC kit.
