Thrunite Catapult Mini 680LM 598m Throw Rechargeable Flashlight Description
The Thrunite Catapult Mini 680LM 598m Throw Rechargeable Flashlight is a pocket-sized thrower designed for long-range illumination, ideal for search-and-rescue, hunting, and tactical use. For example, its 680-lumen output with a 598m throw can spotlight distant targets during a night search, ensuring visibility in low-light conditions. With a USB-C charging port and a durable aluminum build, it offers reliable performance. Featuring a 2-year warranty, this Thrunite Catapult Mini for Tactical Use suits law enforcement, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts.

Powerful Illumination for Tactical and Long-Range Use
The Thrunite Catapult Mini utilizes an OSRAM KW.CSLNM1.TG LED, delivering a maximum output of 680 lumens with a beam throw of 598m and a peak intensity of 89,600 candela, making it one of the farthest-throwing flashlights in its size class. It features six brightness modes, including Firefly, Turbo, and Strobe, accessible via a single side switch:

• Turbo: Brightest setting for maximum visibility.
• High: Strong illumination for sustained use.
• Medium: Balanced output for general tasks.
• Low: Energy-saving mode for longer runtime.
• Firefly: Minimal light for extended use.
• Strobe: Disorienting flash for emergencies.
  The runtimes with the included 1100mAh 18350 battery are as follows:
• Turbo (680 lumens):
  1 minute
  Drops to 200 lumens: 70 minutes
• High (355 lumens):
  5 minutes
  Drops to 200 lumens: 72 minutes
• Medium (150 lumens):
  2.5 hours
• Low (30 lumens):
  12 hours
• Firefly (0.5 lumens):
  106 hours
• Strobe (680 lumens):
  2 hours
  Powered by a 1100mAh 18350 lithium-ion battery (included), it features a USB-C charging port (cable included), taking approximately 1 hour to fully charge at 1A, with an indicator on the side switch showing battery status (blue: >21%, red: 11-20%, flashing red: <10%). The flashlight is IPX8 waterproof (submersible to 2m) and impact-resistant to 1.5m, ensuring reliability in harsh conditions, though its 87.5g weight without battery (approximately 116.5g with battery) makes it lightweight for EDC. This makes it a specialized choice for long-range tactical applications, though users should note the brief Turbo mode runtime and plan for recharging during extended use.

Durable and Compact Design
The Thrunite Catapult Mini is constructed from high-strength T6061-T6 aluminum alloy with a Type III hard-anodized finish, available in black or metal grey (black in this listing), ensuring durability and resistance to wear in rugged outdoor conditions. It measures 81mm in length (3.18 inches), with a 40mm head diameter (1.57 inches) and 25.4mm body diameter (1.00 inches), weighing 87.5g without the battery, making it one of the smallest throwers in its class, often described as “palm-sized” in user feedback on Amazon.com. The flashlight features a smooth reflector for a tight, focused beam with minimal spill, ideal for long-distance spotting, and includes anti-slip rings for a secure grip, though some users note the lack of a tail switch can limit instant access to modes compared to dual-switch designs, as mentioned in reviews on Amazon.ca. Its IPX8 rating ensures it can withstand submersion, making it suitable for rainy conditions, though users should avoid prolonged submersion beyond 2m. This makes it a durable, compact choice for tactical use, though users should use the lockout function (press the switch four times quickly to lock/unlock) to prevent accidental activation and be mindful of the focused beam’s limited spill for close-range tasks.

Designed for Tactical and Outdoor Use
The Thrunite Catapult Mini for Tactical Use is tailored for law enforcement, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts needing a compact thrower for search-and-rescue, hunting, or emergency scenarios. For example, its 680-lumen Turbo mode with a 598m throw can illuminate objects over 600 meters away during a night search, while the 0.5-lumen Firefly mode provides up to 106 hours of runtime for extended emergencies, though some users on Amazon.ca report the actual throw may be closer to 150m in practical use, suggesting the 598m claim may be optimistic under real-world conditions. The light’s six modes offer versatility, and its IPX8 rating ensures reliability in wet conditions, such as during rainy searches, though the 1.5m impact resistance is moderate, so users should avoid drops. The Catapult Mini’s focused beam pattern is ideal for long-range spotting, but its minimal spill makes it less suitable for flood lighting compared to models like the Thrunite T1, as noted in user comparisons on Amazon.ca. It’s perfect for those needing a small, powerful thrower for outdoor and tactical scenarios, offering a balance of range and portability, though users should plan for recharging, be mindful of the focused beam’s limitations, and consider the lack of a tail switch for instant mode access.
