Wuben G6 Launches as a Tiny 40-Gram Flashlight With USB-C Charging and Up to 72 Hours of Runtime
The Wuben G6 is a compact multifunction flashlight designed for anyone who wants a reliable light source without carrying bulky gear. Weighing just 40 grams, this pocket-friendly flashlight is built for everyday carry, outdoor trips, emergency use, and quick tasks around the home or on the road.
Despite its small size, the Wuben G6 packs a built-in 400 mAh battery and charges through USB-C, making it easy to power up using a phone charger, power bank, laptop, or other common USB-C accessories. Wuben says the flashlight can run for up to 72 hours on its lowest 1-lumen mode, which is ideal for low-light situations where long battery life matters most.
For brighter illumination, the flashlight can reach up to 300 lumens. At maximum brightness, battery life drops to around 45 minutes, which is expected for a light this compact. That makes it suitable for short bursts of stronger light, such as checking a dark path, inspecting a car, searching through a backpack, or handling an unexpected power outage.
The Wuben G6 also focuses heavily on portability. It includes both a clip and an integrated carabiner, allowing users to attach it to a keychain, jacket, belt loop, or backpack. This makes it a practical option for hikers, campers, commuters, cyclists, and anyone who prefers to keep a small flashlight within easy reach.
Durability is another key feature. The body is IP67-certified, meaning it is protected against dust and can handle water exposure. That waterproof rating makes the Wuben G6 a useful companion for rainy weather, outdoor activities, and rough everyday conditions.
The Wuben G6 multifunction flashlight is currently available through a crowdfunding campaign. Early supporters can reserve one for around $35, not including shipping, taxes, or customs fees. Shipping is currently planned for January 2027.
While Wuben is an established name in the flashlight market, buyers should remember that crowdfunding campaigns can involve some risk. Delivery timelines may change, and final product quality can sometimes differ from early expectations. Still, for those looking for an ultra-light, USB-C rechargeable everyday carry flashlight, the Wuben G6 offers an appealing mix of portability, battery life, water resistance, and practical design.
