Tools and Hardware Reviews of Neiko 40290 Super-Bright 21-LED Aluminum Flashlight, Gunmetal Silver
Customer Review: Good buy for price
Summary: 5 Stars
Great little light, I was especially surprised at how solid the construction is, it appears to be milled out of a solid piece of aluminum. It's also very, very bright - especially when compared to a 4 LED 2 AA light I also have.
As for the flickering mentioned in the other reviews, I made sure to rough up the contacts with some low grit sandpaper before I started using it and I haven't seen any instance of the problem they describe. I use this as a bike headlamp and it works great.
I would beware the batteries included with it. The instructions specifically mention that they are "demo" batteries and may not last a long time. They are NOT kidding, I got an hour tops of full brightness out of them. Not a con, since it's still a 5 star without the batteries at all, but I suggest disposing of them immediately when it arrives.
It's probably not as nice as some of the $50-$100 ones out there, but why would you compare that to a light that costs as little as this?
Great deal!
Customer Review: Amazing Light Intensity!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Look for the 100 LED flashlight here on Amazon. Yes, it is larger and it costs more, but you won't regret it. Read my review before buying the 100 LED flashlight. But if you don't need very much light and cost is a primary consideration, this 28 LED version is marginally adequate. I've noticed problems at times with flikering light and that is because the terminals inside the light tarnish making for an intermittent situation that is rectified by rotating the battery compartment while pressing it against the LED bulb assembly. And rotate the batteries while inserted to clean the surfaces. It doesn't happen often.Customer Review: People here must be stupid.
Summary: 5 Stars
This flashlight is awesome. I have three of them. If it flickers, you just tighten the caps on either end. It really doesn't work as well as a push button flashlight as a "twist the cap and it stays on" flashlight." Besides, you don't want it to work as a push button flashlight.
Just twist the cap to turn it on, and then twist the cap the other way to turn it off. If you keep it in your car like I do, just take one of the caps off all the way. It's a great, tiny flashlight that will impress all your friends and come in real handy. Get one. Rite-Aids sell them usually if you want to try one out.
Customer Review: Compact; Durable; POWERFUL
Summary: 5 Stars
This flashlight is so small, it fits in the palm of my hand. It's highly durable, and VERY powerful; VERY bright. Lights up everything with a bright white light. When I first bought this flashlight, that night, I turned it on and held it up, pointing it at the sky, and I could see a beam of light coming from this small flashlight held in my hands, shooting straight up into the dark sky of night. The beam of light was faint, but it was still there. I was just amazed at how small this flashlight is, and yet it's so incredibly durable and powerful. powerful enough to make a beam of light..Customer Review: Linterna Resistente pero con problemas
Summary: 5 Stars
Pros:
.-La estructura de la linterna es muy fuerte, resistente a golpes.
.-Brillo muy bueno.
Contras:
.-Luego de un tiempo la luz parpadea porque no hace buen contacto un resorte de tierra que esta detras de los led. Solo hay que sacarlo, darle un poco más de fuerza, limpiarlo y volverla armar para que trabaje.
.- Los led no son de larga duración, si acaso la he usado como unas 5.000 horas y ya tengo 3 led quemados. Eso de 100.000 horas es mentira.
