How do they get this much light from a small flashlight??
I use my flashlight daily at my job.
I have been used to going through these cheap LED flashlights every few months. I either misplace them or they fail. I don't spend a lot of money on a flashlight simply because I have misplaced a few and would rather lose a cheap one than an expensive one.
So I decided to give this model a try. And I have to say I am impressed!
It is small enough to fit in my tool holder and has a very bright light. The beam is adjustable so you can broaden the light or concentrate it into a fine beam.
To my amazement the push button has not failed yet and I don't have to shake the light to get it to work. That seems to be the first problem with these cheapo flashlights. And I am pretty abusive to these flashlights. They get dropped, banged and used on & off many times every day.
Runs on 1 AA battery and seems to last really well. I like this option better than a rechargeable because sometimes I forget to shut it off when I put it back into my bag. Then when the battery dies I have to wait for it to recharge. With this unit I can just swap it out with fresh batteries and get it going again.
I will be getting another one of these when this one starts to fail but so far it has outlasted every other cheapo flashlight and has been the cheapest in cost!
