Nice little flashlight

I bought this and another flashlight as a potential gift for a person who wanted a flashlight to help see jigsaw puzzle pieces more clearly. Specifically I was looking for a clear, bright light, and for a decently broad beam. This flashlight has a great light that is brightest in the center and very gradually tapers off to a fairly well defined circle. It doesn't have a darker ring in the center or a really yellow light like a lot of other flashlights I have owned, so it illuminates what you are looking at very clearly, which I was happy about.
As for the beam width, I decided to measure it for the review because that isn't information I was able to find when I wanted it. So if you hold the flashlight 12 inches above a table, it makes a circle of light that is about 7 inches in diameter. Just to make sure it would correlate, I measured it 24 inches above the floor and the main circle of light was about 14 inches in diameter. The other flashlight I ordered, a Coleman Wide Beam, had what seemed to be a much wider beam, though I never measured it, and since that was important for the intended use or the recipient, that is the one I actually gave as the gift and kept this one to use for other things.
Again this flashlight is very bright, so if you are in a dark room the peripheral light illuminates much more than what is in the main circle I talked about. In our big walk in closet with the door shut, if I shine it against the back wall it illuminates everything in the closet quite well, but of course the main bright circle is on the back wall. I haven't tried it outside at night so I can't comment on that. But it is lot of light for a flashlight that measures 3-3/4 inches by 1-1/2 inches.
Other people have written about the other aspects of the operation so I won't do that, but everything works great on mine and I'm very happy with it. |

| I can find nothing to discredit this little light. I'm sure there's something but i just have'nt found it as yet. I bought two 9LED's one 21 LED and one 28LED. I let the 28 burn in for a while to see if it would buckle, it performs well. I've bought a lot of led flashlights since they came out cause i'm a flashlight junkie and all i can say is, for the $$$ u cant go wrong with these. They definitely deliver. Never gonna pay top dollar for a flashlight again. Thanks china :) |

I ordered three of these units, an I am very happy with them, finding that the battery life is great.
The amount of lights they produce is amazing.
After the first few hours, one walked to my son's car, and then another
to my wife's car.
I keep mine locked in my glove compartment, after being questioned about it's where abouts ( many times )
They make great inspection lights, fit in a small jacket pocket.

| I purchased 5 flashlights for the kids at the lake. There is enough light to see them at distances, let them find their way easily and yet not enough to blind anyone back on the porch. With the little strap they can also hang them on the porch for use the following day. (Emphasis on can) I was also incredibly impressed with the speed of delivery. I was notified the same day I ordered, they had been shipped and they arrived in 5 days. |
