Summary

You are looking for an inexpensive and small thrower for your pocket? With Anduril and fancy aux LEDs? Then try out the Wurkkos TS11!

The Wurkkos TS11 is a fantastic, small pocket thrower that can easily keep up with larger flashlights such as the Sofirn IF22A in terms of range and brightness. Anduril offers many functions and can be updated and extended with some experience. On the other hand, this complexity can easily be overwhelming. (Wurkkos has just released the TS11S, which is the same flashlight, but with a simper user interface.)

There’s a small issue with some orange in the spill, but you can either use the black version or apply my modification with aluminum tape. Apart from that the TS11 is exactly what I expected.

    Great review. This also seems very close to the Thrunite catapult mini v2 (https://zeroair.org/2023/05/30/thrunite-catapult-mini-v2-flashlight-review/) but with the v1 optic.

    The catapult mini v2 also with sft40 lists 1100 lumens for turbo, so maybe it has a 4-5 amp driver. But it also seems to be regulated with 400 sustained lumens in zeroair’s review. With the addition of custom UI and aux in the ts11, maybe long sustained use isn’t really needed for a pocket thrower in which case it would be a better choice.
