The Acebeam X80GT 3 is a compact high-output torch designed for caving and exploration. The white light version uses 24 6000K LEDs to deliver up to 30000 lumens with a beam distance of 430 metres, and recharges its built-in 4 x 18650 battery pack over USB-C at up to 60W in about 1 hour. Two multi-light versions pair 18 cool white 6000K LEDs or 18 Nichia 519A 5000K high CRI LEDs with 4 red and 2 UV LEDs, and run on a swappable 4 x 18650 battery compartment. A CRI 95+ side light works on its own or together with the main beam, and stepless dimming adjusts the output smoothly without PWM flicker. The AL6061-T6 aluminium body is IP68 rated and 1 metre drop tested, with a magnetic mechanical lock, a patented detachable handle and a UNC 1/4" threaded socket for tripods.
Features
Three LED Options: All cool white LEDs for the highest output, cool white with red and UV, or Nichia 519A high CRI with red and UV.
60W USB-C Charging: Recharges in about 1 hour through a USB-C port under a metal cover (white light version).
CRI 95+ Side Light: Lights the ground at your feet on its own, or runs together with the main beam.
Stepless Dimming: Non-PWM output adjusts smoothly from 150 to 3500 lumens on the white light version (100 to 3200 lumens multi-light, 80 to 2200 lumens 519A).
Magnetic Mechanical Lock: Push the lock inward to stop accidental activation, outward to unlock.
Detachable Handle: The patented handle improves grip and comes off to save space; a UNC 1/4" socket takes tripods.

Performance and Runtime Disclaimer
How to read the data: The outputs provided above are maximum outputs for each mode, and the runtimes provided are the time it takes to drop to 10% of the initial output. This is in line with the International Flashlight Testing Standard ANSI FL1.
Any visual representations (graphs) of the data are approximate only.

The actual output of the torch/headlamp is controlled by an in-built temperature regulation system. As the torch/headlamp heats up, the brightness will drop to prevent overheating. The Turbo modes of torches/headlamps usually drop down significantly after anything from 15 seconds to 2 minutes. High modes often also experience a drop down over time. Medium and Low modes, however, can be constant for very close to the length of time specified. As the torch/headlamp cools down, either from being turned off or from being used on a lower output level, you will be able to access higher brightness levels again.
Example: An output of 2000 lumens and runtime of 5 hours does not mean 2000 lumens for 5 hours — it means it starts at 2000 lumens and drops below 200 lumens after 5 hours of continuous use.
Turbo and high modes may be unavailable or limited as the battery gets low on charge.
Exact specifications can vary between torches, batteries, age and environments.
