Porodo Torch Light is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 2,200, brand new and sealed, with an 800-lumen output and a built-in 1200mAh rechargeable battery in black. The Porodo Torch Light throws a bright, focused beam that reaches well past what a phone flashlight can light, while the battery inside saves you from buying dry cells every month. It is small enough for a handbag, a car glovebox or a jacket pocket. Come and switch it on at our shop in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for households, security guards, drivers, boda boda riders and field engineers across Kenya, the Porodo Torch Light handles the moments when the lights go out. A KPLC power cut at dinner time, a flat tyre on the Thika Road at night or a walk home from the matatu stage after dark all call for real light. Using your phone as a torch drains the battery you need for calls and M-Pesa. Keeping the Porodo Torch Light charged in a drawer means your phone stays free, and you are never searching for candles and matches in the dark.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded torches with no warranty and no idea of their true brightness, Mascom International stocks a branded unit with a stated 800-lumen rating and written warranty cover. Customers across Nairobi tell us their cheap market torches dimmed within weeks once the batteries faded. At Mascom International, we're seeing more buyers keep one Porodo Torch Light at home and another in the car. Order on WhatsApp and pay on arrival, or walk into our Kimathi Street shop and test the beam yourself.
Common Questions About the Porodo Torch Light
How much is the Porodo Torch Light in Kenya?
The Porodo Torch Light costs KSh 2,200 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed in black. That price includes a 6-month warranty covering manufacturing defects, plus pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. Orders within Nairobi arrive the same day, and buyers in other major towns receive theirs the next business day. You can also collect it from our Kimathi Street shop and test the beam before paying. There are no hidden charges added at delivery.
How bright is 800 lumens in real use?
The Porodo Torch Light's 800 lumens is bright enough to light a whole room during a blackout or a stretch of dark road ahead of you. Lumens measure the total light a torch puts out. Most phone flashlights give far less, so 800 lumens shows you stones, potholes and steps much further ahead. Indoors, pointing the beam at a white ceiling bounces enough light to cook or help children finish homework. Avoid shining it straight into anyone's eyes, since a beam this bright dazzles for several seconds.
Is the Porodo Torch Light useful during KPLC power cuts?
The Porodo Torch Light is a reliable backup for KPLC power cuts, because its built-in 1200mAh battery is charged in advance and ready when the grid fails. Keep it charged in a fixed spot, such as a kitchen drawer, so everyone at home knows where to find it in the dark. Top it up after each long outage rather than waiting for the beam to dim. In Kisumu, Mombasa and rural areas where outages last longer, it saves money on candles, paraffin and dry cells.
How does the Porodo Torch Light compare with using my phone's flashlight?
The Porodo Torch Light is much brighter than a phone flashlight and keeps your phone battery free for calls, Safaricom data and M-Pesa. A phone light is always in your pocket, which is its one real advantage. However, it drains the battery you may need to call for help after a breakdown. It is also awkward to hold while changing a tyre. Pick the Porodo Torch Light for blackouts, security rounds and roadside work, and rely on your phone only for quick, short looks.
Who should buy the Porodo Torch Light, and who should skip it?
Buy the Porodo Torch Light if you face regular power cuts, drive at night, walk home after dark or work security shifts. Watchmen in Kilimani estates, farmers checking livestock in Nakuru and long-distance drivers all get daily use from it. Skip it if you need to light a whole campsite or room hands-free for hours. A rechargeable lantern or an LED camping lamp suits that job better, because it spreads light evenly instead of throwing one focused beam.
What does the 1200mAh battery mean for me?
The Porodo Torch Light's 1200mAh battery is a built-in rechargeable cell, so you never buy or replace dry cells. The mAh figure measures how much charge the battery stores. Running time depends on the brightness you use, since full output draws far more power than a lower setting. For long nights, use the beam only when you need it and switch it off in between. Recharge it after each use so it is always ready for the next outage or night drive.
Can I keep the Porodo Torch Light in my car?
Yes, the Porodo Torch Light fits easily in a glovebox or door pocket, which makes it a sensible part of a Kenyan car emergency kit. A breakdown on the Nairobi-Nakuru highway or a puncture on a dark murram road is far safer with a bright beam. Midday heat inside a parked car shortens the life of any lithium battery, so do not leave it on the dashboard in direct sun. Check and recharge it every few weeks, since a battery slowly loses charge while stored.
Is the Porodo Torch Light good for security guards and night shifts?
The Porodo Torch Light suits security guards and night-shift workers, because 800 lumens lights up gates, parking bays and fence lines clearly. Guards at offices in Upper Hill and Westlands, and at estates in Kilimani, use torches for every round. A rechargeable unit cuts the monthly cost of dry cells that older torches need. Charge it fully before each shift. Security companies buying in bulk for their teams can ask Mascom International on WhatsApp about quantity orders.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- 800-lumen output — enough light to see a dark road, a compound or a whole room clearly during a power cut.
- Focused handheld beam — the light is thrown forward to where you point it, rather than spread around you like a lantern.
- Handheld torch design — easy to grip and aim during security rounds, roadside repairs and late walks home.
- Built for everyday emergencies — power cuts, flat tyres, night errands and checking on livestock or gates after dark.
- Saves your phone battery — your phone stays charged for calls, Safaricom data and M-Pesa payments instead of lighting the way.
Compatibility
- Rechargeable design — charged from a power source instead of using dry cells, which cuts monthly running costs over time.
- Charge from a phone adapter or power bank — confirm the cable type with our team on WhatsApp before ordering.
- Suits home, car and work use — store it in a drawer, a glovebox or a guard's kit bag.
- Usable by anyone — no setup or pairing needed, so children and older family members can use it easily.

Build
- Black finish — a dark body that shows less road dust and fingerprints than lighter colours after daily handling.
- Handheld body — sized for one hand, leaving the other free for a tyre spanner, a key or a gate padlock.
- Portable size — slips into a handbag, a backpack side pocket or a jacket for walks home after dark.
- Store away from extreme heat — high heat on a car dashboard shortens the life of any lithium battery.
