Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this without doing extensive research because Anker rocks. Their power banks are the bomb and pretty much everything I've gotten from them so this excited me. It does work exactly as advertised- I just didn't realize it had design shortcomings before buying it. Pros USB rechargeability at this price point is pretty awesome and the battery life seems awesome, assuming it's actually that 3... mah they advertise. Update... the battery life is awesome. Being water proof, this bright, USB rechargeable, and having a mode memory is a good thing. That and the scalloped bezel is nice. The battery is replaceable, tho I haven't tried it. The light spread and pattern is great. Its comfortable to hold too. It performs very well. I have dropped it several times on rocks and concrete.. not a scratch! Cons. FIX THE MODES!!! It sucks that you have to cycle through strobe and sos everytime, that needs to be locked out accessible through specific button command. The button also needs soft clicking / partial actuation usability. I don't like that the USB port is on the back as opposed to the side, making the button tiny. NO! it's too clicky and just sounds cheap. Still feels pretty good. The runner is soft. The Gnurling or "antislip" surface is a joke. It needs to be more aggresive, meaning cut deeper and with wider gaps and slightly sharper edges.. its uniquely shaped but not very functional for not slipping. Lastly... the pocket clip and material all around seems thin. It feels strong however. It just doesn't look very nice. Not that that matters at this price point. I'm holding this light to foursevens standards, which is a problem I suppose because it's a 20$ light. Oh yeah.. no lanyard hole and the pocket clip isn't removable... poo All that garbage said, the only real problem I have is the modes, which is what I'm removing the star for.. and the weird button. but I already have a smaller EDC light, so this will be my dedicated spot light/ brighter defense light. This light is really good for the price still, so of you only want to use it for one mode most of the time, it's not even an issue other than having to hold the light to turn it off to forego cycling through all the other modes. I want them but not that bad... theyre not worth all the clicking... so either remove modes to keep it cheap and less annoying or program it right.
