Spark Illuminations

Spark Illuminations

Spark Illuminations

Spark Illuminations

. You have purchased a light 

that is very compact, yet extremely bright. This light is made of premium materials, with the highest quality 
of manufacturing available. It is machined on highly precise CNC lathes, so that very tight tolerances are 
held - this gives it the best fit and finish available today.  

 
 

Our Philosophy: 

 
The 

Fire~Fly 3

 is designed and intended to be with you every day – right there for you whenever you need a 

little more light to see what you are doing, or a lot more light to see where you are going. You never need to 
worry about where you left it – it’s in your pocket or purse, or on your keychain.

Fire~Fly 3

Fire~Fly 3

The 

Fire~Fly 3

 flashlight is one of the finest flashlights in the world, with many premium qualities and 

features. The 

Fire~Fly 3

 is very tough and durable. The body and bezel are made of high-grade aircraft 

aluminum (7075T6), which has nearly the strength of steel, yet one-third the weight. Accidental drops and 
falls will result in no (or minimal) damage to the case of the light.  
 
The light source is a 

Luxeon III

® high-powered LED emitter, which, since it is solid-state, has no filament to 

break or burn out. The anticipated lifespan of the 

Luxeon III

® emitter is 

at least

 50,000 hours of on-time 

(about 5.7 years constantly on), so that in normal use it will never have to be replaced.  

 

The 

Fire~Fly 3

 is rechargeable, which means it is nearly free to use. No need to worry about consuming 

expensive single-use batteries, nor about polluting the environment with the used cells. With a second battery 
ready, you can have continuous light, as the spent cell is recharged. The 

Nano

® charger is tiny, and is
