I went to Battery Outfitters this morning - turns out the batteries were bad (could have been from me charging them with them inserted in the wrong direction) - needless to say the guy sold me a battery for it that he just happened to have and the flashlight is now Rockin with Dokken. He also showed me some different sized non rechargeable batteries that I could use in a pinch.

I just tested mine..........

DAMN!!! I used it outside alongside my browning.
There is no comparison. I could see detail and color in trees at 50+ yards. It can definitely serve as a spotlight for coon hunting.

The two drawbacks I see:
1. The actual brightest spot of the light is pretty small.
2. "Waterproofing Design" - I don't like this wording.....and I don't see that it would really keep water out in a downpour. I'm nervous about a short in bad weather.

In summary, I think this is a badass flashlight. I will probably always carry a backup with me in case it goes out, but I will use it as my primary light at night from now on.
Overall, for $19.98, it will be very hard to beat.

2 questions:
1. Once fully charged, how long will it hold its charge if not turned on?
2. How long does it hold its charge in the field?
