Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dorcy 41-1044 2 Hour Failsafe Rechargeable Flashlight with Built-In Charging Adaptor
Customer Review: Not automatic
Summary: 3 Stars
I haven't had the light long enough to see how long it will last but I was expecting a light that comes on automatically when the power goes off. I had another brand that did, and I assumed they all worked the same. But other than that... so far, so good.Customer Review: On the disappointing side
Summary: 2 Stars
This reminds me of the old flashlights you would see on airplanes for the stewardess (I specifically used stewardess because that is how old these look). The flashlight is very lightweight and small (the size of a phone receiver). In fact, it is smaller than I expected and not as powerful as I thought. It doesn't have a wide range, so it doesn't have enough power to light up an area.
I bought two of these for occasional power outages, which seem more frequently lately. In general, they have worked so far. My biggest disappointment is that they do not have an automatic setting that will turn them on in a power outage, although the little red light means you can spot them if you have a direct line of sight. So, I suggest keeping them in locations that are unobstructed and easy to reach.
The only real outstanding thing is the free shipping. That brings the price down and makes it tolerable.
Customer Review: Rechargeable batteries don't last very long
Summary: 2 Stars
We purchased several of these flashlights for our office just over a year ago and have not really had to use them. However, when checking them to make sure they were in working order, we have discovered one by one, the batteries are dying. They are also not a standard size which makes replacement difficult. I don't think its unreasonable to expect these to last more than a year at this price.Customer Review: Great while it lasted
Summary: 2 Stars
I loved this flashlight and used it often for about a year, then it just died. Sad, but will probably order another one as it's so neat while it lasted.Customer Review: A Rip Off
Summary: 1 Stars
This This Flash Lite is not even worth one star, when it is on there is a BLACK spot in the center of the light, so it's like not even having the light on. SAVE YOUR MONEY I would NOT Recomand it to Anyone!!!!
