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

Hi BigClive, I need to contact you URGENTLY regarding one of your friends / someone I know a little; I am very concerned about this person. 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

Philips make more profit from licencing their name than they ever did designing, manufacturing and selling their own products. I was at the Philips museum in Eindhoven last month, it's sad to see their history has lead to this.
