If you're looking for a new light that can fulfill your EDC and work needs, then pick up the Klarus E5! Its main side COB LED is designed with a maximum output of 600 lumens in a 98ft beam, great for DIY household projects, car repairs, and more. Through the secondary LED, this light offers efficient close-range visibility that runs for up to 12 hours, perfect for late-night hikes and navigation. The E5's red and blue strobe mode generates clear, effective location signaling to fellow campers from a distance or during an emergency.
Charge It, Clip It, Mount It
The E5's clip makes it a great right-angle flashlight for odd jobs at home or stable lighting at work. It also lets this light act as a backup headlamp by attaching it to the brim of your hat. The magnetic tail enables even more hands-free lighting options, such as attaching it to your car hood while working on the engine. These features also provide storage and portability options to prevent it from falling in any environment. With its USB-C port, you can charge from outlets, power banks, and other devices, ensuring you can always recharge everywhere you go.

"Slim and light weight. Easy to carry every day. The pocket clip works well on a cap brim too. The magnetic base is also good for hands-free operation."
— MICHAEL K. (5/5)
Not for me
"I didn't realize the main flashlight was pointing down. The forward beam is not as bright. Didn't like the charging gasket (type c) which came off completely. It was hard to put back on and could be lost."
— JOSEPH R. (1/5)
Great work light
"Last a long time very bright."
— Mark J. (5/5)
Best small EDC carry
"Most useful EDC carry I have. Small enough to clip into my pocket and be unobtrusive. Just enough light for most getting around. Small enough second head to get into small spaces and use as head light clipped on to bill of a hat. USBC charging, magnetic tail. Charging time is a little long and on and off switch takes getting use to. All in all. best small light I have."
— Bc (5/5)
Too early to assess durability
"My second purchase of the Klarus E5 has been received. So far I am pleased. These are not tactical lights, but work lights. They are not intended to produce a strong long distance light but instead provide close range illumination to great effect. The shape fits perfectly in a shirt pocket; thin, light weight, on/off switch will not accidently be engaged. The separate front and side light options provide versatility. The clip allows the light to be nicely attached to a shirt, coat, hat, etc. with the light facing ones work space and having both hands free for the task. I am giving several of these as gifts. My concerns with new lights are durability of the circuitry, mechanical switches, and switch/outlet covers. I have not used mine long enough to make judgments as to durability. For self defense and tactical carry, I prefer a small light weight pocket light with long throw and good value for the price like Olight Batons, Klarus XT1C, Nitecore, JetBeam, etc. with instant access to strobe. My EDC varies with the plans for the day. . . . today it is a"

Very useful and bright
"This light is quite useful both for carry and illumination of work area on small jobs. I only wish the magnet was on the back instead of the bottom."
— John M. (4/5)
Very small but versatile
"This is a very small, thin edc light. It is light weight, you hardly know it is in your pocket. The clip is perfect in size and shape and works as intended. It is not a replacement for my Streamlight Protac but I have been carrying the Klarus E5 for a few weeks now and it has been great! It is definitely worth the price."
— Ed M. (5/5)
Klarus E5
"I really like this light. Haven’t really delved into where and how hard it is to ever change batteries. Very bright on the work light side. Love the magnetic base. Only complaint I might have (Hense the 4 star) is I found the power button on the side is hard to use if you have big hands. I tend to drop it a lot lol. Otherwise, a nice light. Well thought out. Over all very nice value for the money"
— Michael L. (4/5)
Nice little light
"Small, bright, easy to carry…have to get used to the functions, but overall good value for the money, especially if your looking for a small but bright light to keep in a tool box, purse, or car…"
— Richard M. (5/5)
A new way to view things
"I know there’s been a “New/Different” way of doing just about anything, this is no exception"
