Acebeam K1 Limited Edition launches with a rare 488 nm cyan laser
Acebeam has expanded its compact K1 lineup with a striking Limited Edition model that swaps the usual red or green pointer for a cyan laser at 488 nm. Wrapped in an Azure Blue housing, this special variant keeps everything fans like about the original K1 while adding a distinctive, eye-catching laser color that’s uncommon in everyday pointers.
The K1 remains a three-in-one tool. Alongside the cyan laser, you get a UV emitter rated at 1,000 mW and a cool-white 6,500 K beam delivering 9 to 1,000 lumens with a throw of around 220 meters. It retains IP68 certification for rugged, all-weather use, making it a versatile choice for work, travel, and everyday carry.
Charging is handled via USB-C, but with a twist: instead of plugging into the flashlight body, you unscrew the head to remove the 3.7 V 14500 cell. The included battery looks like a standard AA, yet it houses its own USB-C port and an LED status indicator. Capacity is listed at 3.7 watt-hours, giving you a neat, self-contained charging solution that’s easy to top up on the go.
Compact and pocket-friendly, the K1 measures about 11 cm in length with a head diameter of roughly 2.5 cm, and it weighs just under 80 grams. The Limited Edition commands a premium: it costs $89.90, which is $35 more than the regular model, and ships free. The K1 range has been on the market since September 2025, and this new cyan laser version is the standout addition for collectors, EDC enthusiasts, technicians, and anyone who wants a unique laser pointer paired with practical UV and high-output white light.
