SOG M-48 Flashlight Black 2500 Lumens

The SOG M-48 in black: 2500 lumens from a CREE XHP50.3 HD emitter, a stated beam distance of 279 meters, a single 3200 mAh cell, and USB-C charging.

This one completes the picture across the SOG range we carry. Line the beam distances up against the outputs and the pattern is unmistakable: 1320 lumens reaching 652 meters, 1300 reaching 175, 2500 reaching 279, 4000 reaching 288, 5000 reaching 340. There is almost no relationship between the two columns.

The M-48 sits where most compact high-output lights sit — a lot of light spread over a useful working distance, in a body small enough to carry without deciding to. That is a good place to be for camp, for a truck, and for anything within a couple of hundred yards.

If you want reach rather than coverage, the A-37 is the one to look at instead.
