Is Philips now a zombie brand?
Added 2025-09-17 18:21:02 +0000 UTCI bought this little light thinking that it was probably just stealing the Philips name, but it looks like it is a product that is licencing the name like so many other zombie brands like Duracell.
On a plus note, they have done a decent job of giving this light some design and software features worthy of a posh brand.

This looks like a bit of a rip-off of the Nitecore TIKI LE https://flashlight.nitecore.com/product/tikile

Do you have an email address that I could send a message to you that I want to remain private. I don’t want to post anything publicly as I don’t think it fair on the person involved. Kind Regards Graham
