[Review] Loop Gear SK05 Pro MAO – feature-rich EDC flashlight with awesome MAO finish (infosec.pub)

Summary

The Loop Gear SK05 Pro MAO really has a lot to offer: powerful floodlight, long-range spotlight and a multi-colored side light. Operation is intuitive, using a rotary switch combined with a push button. The batteries are easy to swap – a rare feature for a flashlight of this kind. The impressive MAO surface finish feels unexpectedly smooth and has a ceramic-like quality. Its irregular, cream-gray coloration resembles stone or concrete, giving it a truly distinctive character.

Unfortunately there's no true moon mode. The side light's "white" setting doesn't make an adequate substitute, since it lacks dedicated white LEDs and the red, green and blue mix looks rather unnatural.
