The TC15 V3 is just barely bigger than the Archer 2A V3, but at the high setting it’s twice as bright with a similar run time. We have also looked at rechargeable flashlights, and not surprisingly, the ThruNite TC15 V3 USB rechargeable flashlight hits the same balance as the Archer 2A V3, offering high-end features at an entry-level price. Its two-AA-powered beam pattern produces such good overall visibility that, even after trying all the other lights, we reached for this flashlight first when we headed into the woods. The Archer 2A V3 also boasts a number of other features found on more-expensive lights: It doesn’t roll on a flat surface, it stands upright on its rear end, it can survive a 1-meter drop or full immersion in water-try that, smartphones-and it has a memory function as well as a momentary-on feature that turns the light on and off with a half-press of the rear button. The blinding strobe mode is useful in an emergency-but the Archer 2A V3’s design makes it easy to avoid activating the strobe during regular use, an advantage over most competitors. Like many of the best flashlights, this light has a two-button interface that lets you easily toggle through the brightness levels one-handed. We hope that you will find a pattern that will light your fancy.The ThruNite Archer 2A V3 has the widest range of brightness settings of any AA-battery-powered light we tested, including a very dim mode that allowed us to read a map (without destroying our night vision) and a bright setting that illuminated trees 500 feet away. Our patterns range from the patriotic "Shield and Star" to the romantic "Sweetheart" to the nostalgic "Twinkle". The glass patterns are all mouth blown and the lamps are available in a variety of vivid colors. All glass lamps are functional (Metal based lamps do not hold oil and should be used for decoration only.) The solid brass Gem Arctic, Nutmeg or Acorn kerosene burners are all working burners with cotton wicks. We complete our reproduction miniature oil lamps with solid brass miniature burners, tripods and collars. When lit they emit a warm and comforting glow throughout the room. But many Antique Dealers believe they were used as a nightlight in a child's room. There are a few theories concerning the original purpose of the miniature lamp. As in the standard size oil lamps, hundreds of miniature patterns were originally made in many beautiful colors. One of the most popular areas of collecting in American antique lighting is the miniature oil lamps.
