MagicShine offers 1 year warranty for the light but only 180 days for battery.
Just as point of information, which I'm sure most are already aware of, the MS lights lumen ratings (as well as a LOT of flashlights) are "bit" overstated, especially for the P7 emitter. More like 70% of the claimed lumens. Just saying, you can't really judge a light by it's advertised lumen rating. Beam shape also plays a large roll.
