KeySmart is a relatively young company based in Illinois whose company name is a reflection of their first product. The original KeySmart smart key organizer was launched in 2013, and has evolved since then. In addition to now offering a few versions of their Swiss Army like key organizer, they also have a few other interesting products in their line up, such as the Nano Torch Twist magnetic swivel LED flashlight we will be covering in this review.



The Nano Torch Twist is pictured with its included accessories in the image above. It is a compact LED flashlight that can put out a good deal of light (600 Lumens / 3000cd) that includes a Lithium Ion AA battery that recharges via an included USB cable. Before taking a closer look at what you get and how it performs, let's take a look at some published data on the Nano Torch Twist, as taken from the product page on the KeySmart website...

While we will use the review to check out the flashlight subjectively, we will take an objective look at the claims that on the lowest brightness setting that a single charge will get you 7 hours of run time.
