How it began?

Rey has extensive experience in making custom flashlights, both his iconic Pineapple and Lan flashlight are highly sought after in the EDC community. Since I am a flashlight collector and chess fan, I talked Rey into making this Rook-shaped flashlight with me.

Rey and I have known each other for more than half a decade, and I have always been amazed by his products and work ethic. Whenever we get together, we often discuss how to improve the functionality and playability of our products.

Compared to Rey's other premium flashlights such as Krystal and Dawn, the Rook has a simpler programmable user interface. The Rook is engineered for both new and advanced flashlight users, as it provides a great balance between functionality and playability. we sincerely believe that our Rook flashlight will be a great daily tool and a nice EDC collection piece for you.

The moonlight mode is a useful and comforting mode for night reading, map reading, checking sleeping baby, camping in the tent, and any tasks that you don't want to shock your night-adapted eyes or disturb others. Enjoy the convenience of just 0.5 LUMENS to light up what's right in front of you without alerting it.

With Strobe and SOS features, the Rook can do its best to hold the danger and panic at bay. The strobe function is capable of temporarily blinding your attacker in dimly-lit places while the SOS function delivers a crucial tactical advantage by issuing SOS signals to rescue you from dangerous and threatening situations.

DESIGNED TO BE FUN AND FLEXIBLE

With the simplified user interfaces and beginner-friendly programming, it actually works for most light lovers who'd like to dabble in the custom-configured flashlight. With just a few quick taps of the switch, you can change the lighting groups to cater to your demand.

Never set in stone, flexibility in hand. 

You can reprogram the light from the standard default, enable/disable the moonlight mode and memory function to your liking. 

The cherry on the cake is that you can quickly access Turbo mode.

4000K neutral light ensures a uniform and smooth spot with accurate color rendering (CRI R8090), thus colors will be true-to-life and not washed out.

With a fairly high PWM frequency at 31 kHz, there's no flickering effect to naked eyes and phone camera, highly reducing eye strains. 

*TIR lenses (Left) can make light more concentrated and more efficient.
