Solid and easy to use
This was my first continuous light source purchase for my very beginner, 'just for fun' setup consisting of a light + Sealife sportdiver phone case+ tray. I'm impressed. Solid aluminum build. Very bright, especially for US PNW cold water diving. Can easily turn it off with one finger/thumb when not needed. Color spectrum of red and blue w/ or w/o white is nice. 1" ball mount stays tight. Was doing 2, 50-60min dives and had plenty of battery for that scale.

Effective Pool Lighting
I bought this to use as a swimming pool light. It effectively lights a 21x43 foot pool.
So far so good. But after playing with it for a while and getting familiar with the settings I didn’t get a full to hours of light. I charged it all day and will try again without any use and see how much longer it lasts.
In all it is still better than a lot of actual pool lights on the market.

Not nearly as bright as advertised
After initially charging this light for almost 24 hours with a 2.4a 5v USB was very disappointed with the light output. Using a professional light meter from 5 feet away I measured the light output on high of this light compared to my older 4,000 lumen video light head from i-divesite. Both of these lamps have 120 degree flood output.
I-Divesite 4,000 lumen: 646 Lux
LetonPower 10,000 lumen: 335 Lux
The letonpower Turbo S is half as bright as my other 4,000 lumen light but claims to have double the lumens...It should be reading somewhere in the 1200 lux range.
Also, the 6500k out put is very blue, looks more like 13,000k.
I'm writing this review to see if anyone from the company will comment on this. Perhaps my unit is just weak for some reason. On a side note the literature with the light claimed it was the S2 model, and if that is the case, than this is even more disappointing as apparently that light claims 18,000 lumens...

Internal Battery
This model is a big improvement over its predecessors.
-I’m impressed it comes with a lock mode function that would prevent you from accidentally turning it on during transport.
- The TS S has an internal battery that is charged via a USB -C Connector. This is beneficial as it is sometimes hard to find batteries for the other models that didn’t come with them.
- You can use a coin to access the charging compartment, but it comes with a coin shaped object already.
- At the highest setting, 18000 LUMs the light will last for approximately 90 minutes and at the lowest setting approximately 240 minutes.
- I like the red light feature to help bring out certain colors but it also helps when I night dive. Sometimes the white light can scare some of the smaller creatures away. When I use the red light at night, I can line up my equipment before I turn on the white light to get the picture.
- My average dives are typically 80 feet or deeper, the light from the S2 makes my Videos and pictures turn out amazing.
- This light is a great investment and LetonPower has great customer service if you have any questions or issues.
