Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

We have come along way since those days when Maglite was considered the precipice of high tech, top end of flashlights. When I flew for the Navy, seems like everyone carried a Mag in the flight suit. Now we have or better put, I have a plethora of Cree LED -Flashlights of varying lumens from recognized brands, many of which are now sitting at the bottom of my desk drawers. I was on the hunt for a compact light that I intended to mount on one of my AR's and as I searched through pages upon pages of flashlights, (Amazon has 137,674 items available if you search LED Flashlight), when I came across the VIZERI. Pushed the buy button and 2 days later, the Amazon box arrived. My first impression was a very impressive package instead of a blister package. I'm always amazed when you spend $100+ and it comes in package that looks like you bought a pack of glue sticks. Even before I installed batteries, I was impressed by the solid precision construction of the VIZERI. Heavy-duty lens, precise printed markings that remind me of a torque wrench; when you find you favorite light size, the markings allow you to return to the exact spot. Turning the adjustable head is a smooth as any light I have ever owned, and a feature that is not standard by any means. When you have it in your hand there is no mistaking the quality. It feels like the designer deliberately had the "First Impressions" are the ones you remember as a top priority. No sharp edges, just very comfortable in hand. The light itself is the perfect color, not hazy or blue, but more pure white. The ability to vary the size and strength of the focused beam is fantastic. Now the versatility is high on my list. You have the ability to use rechargeable batteries and if you find yourself without one, pop in AAA's available anywhere. Replacement o-rings for sometime in the future if and when needed, and a diffuzer which works really well when the power goes out here in Michigan on a regular basis. And something that I take for granted, the VIZERI comes with an actual carrying case, and a quality one to boot. I never understood when you spend $75 for a flashlight and a protective case is an option. The rest of the quality touches like gold plating, waterproof, unconditional guarantee...the list is very small of brands you can compare apples to apples. Bottom line, the VIZERI surprised me by exceeding my expectations. You are getting more than what you are investing with VIZERI. I will not mention 2 brand names that come to mind, but you know whom I mean. Companies that charge a portion for their names, not to say that they are bad, but in today's world, I look to get my money's worth. Try one out for yourself; I believe you will have a smile on your face as well.
