Pros and cons

✓ Pros

  • Cheapest light here, small enough to live on a keyring permanently
  • COB strip throws a usable flood rather than a pinpoint beam
  • The light you actually have on you when the power cuts unexpectedly
  • HaixnFire is a real manufacturer with its own catalog, not a blank label

✗ Cons

  • No published lumens, runtime, or battery capacity at all
  • Keychain size means a small cell, so expect short working time
  • Too small to light a work area, it lights what is directly in front of you
  • No magnet or hook, so it is not hands-free

The HaixnFire BL01 is our Best Always-On-You pick: a COB keychain light for around ₱289. It won’t light a room. It will be in your pocket when everything else in this roundup is sitting in a drawer.

What’s the actual argument for a light this small?

Availability, not brightness. Every other light in this roundup is genuinely useful only if it’s within reach when the power cuts. A keychain light travels with your keys by default, so it’s the one light in this whole category you can reasonably expect to have on you at 9pm in a parking lot or a stairwell.

How much light does it give?

Unknown in numbers, small in practice. HaixnFire publishes no lumen figure for the BL01, and given the keychain form factor, expect a small COB cell: enough to find a keyhole, read a label, or light your immediate path, not enough to work by.

There’s no magnet and no hook, so it isn’t hands-free. You hold it, the way you’d hold a phone flashlight.

Is HaixnFire trustworthy?

Yes as a brand. HaixnFire runs its own website and sells through Amazon, eBay, and its own Shopee store, so it’s a genuine manufacturer rather than a blank label. What it doesn’t do at this price point is publish lumens, runtime, or battery capacity, which is the honest limit of the review: we can vouch for the brand, not for the numbers.

Is it sulit?

Around ₱289 as of July 31, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee. It’s the cheapest light in this roundup, and the value case isn’t brightness, it’s redundancy: a backup that costs less than a meal and lives on your keys.

Don’t buy it as your main work light. Buy it as the light you always have, alongside a proper one you keep at home.

Who should buy it

Buy this as a cheap backup to keep on your keys, not as your primary light. It’s the right choice for anyone who wants insurance against being caught without any light at all.

Alternatives to consider

For a light you can actually work by, the SUPERFIRE G25 is our Best Overall at around ₱919 with a published 800lm. HaixnFire’s own H11 is a step up in size at around ₱529, still small but with USB-C charging.

Frequently Asked Questions

How bright is the HaixnFire BL01?

HaixnFire publishes no lumen figure for it. Given its keychain size, expect a small COB cell producing modest light, enough to find a keyhole or read a label, not to light a room or a work area.

Why would I buy a light this small?

Because it's the light you actually have on you. A ₱919 work light in a drawer at home is no use when the power cuts while you're out. A keychain light is in your pocket by default.

How long does the battery last?

Not published. Assume a small cell given the size, so expect short bursts of light rather than hours of continuous use. It's a stopgap, not a primary light source.

Is HaixnFire a real brand?

Yes. HaixnFire runs its own website and sells flashlights and camping lights through Amazon, eBay, and its own Shopee store, so it's a genuine manufacturer, not a blank label. It simply doesn't publish detailed specs for its budget models.
