My review of the light.

Came in yesterday. Charged overnight.

Pros: Light is very bright. Doesn't weigh much. Cheap.

Cons: the battery pack makes for difficult use when wearing nothing but tighty-whities and shooting a possum from somewhere near the neighbor's fence.

Overall: I suggest holding battery pack underneath armpit (right handed shooters hold under right armpit and so forth) when in this situation.

Good deal man!! I was hoping you guys reviewed them also.

For future reference, stash the battery in the front of your whitey tighties for bulge enhancement...

They sent two bands with each light. One is a spare, right? One band just attaches and loops all the way back to the lamp?

Charging these bad boys as we speak

1 strap is for the headlight
1 strap is when used on a handlebar, PVC pipe, or hard pecker....

No cave exploring, you can only do that with a $500 light!

Yep, seems to be bright as hell. Worth $25.

Got mine in today as well. Glad I'm not the only one that took a sec to figure the light attachment. I wish the cord was longer but geez this is a great light for $30. Me and the misses are gonna drop some E and put it on strobe in the closet in a minute.

The real test will be how long this battery lasts on a charge

Drop some E



I'm glad everyone is liking the lights.
My luck, I figure everyone would get a bad light out the bunch and ruin my street credit...

After a few white cans in the evening I break mine out and spot around da back yard... I'm sure the neighbors love it...

I will probably do that tomorrow night. I got it in the mail today and there's a movie filming nearby so it will for sure be interesting.

TT,
After reading Amazon's description of the light, I have a question I'm hoping you'll answer. Can the light be focused from wide to narrow?
