The battery holder can be cleaned if one leaks, will not swell to stick the entire lot in the barrel, like I've had with MagLites, and always spells the end of flashlight life, as there is usually no direct way to pry the damned batteries loose again. If you mail it to the battery maker, it becomes a battle of wills.

Flashlight will zoom or focus from very wide even beam to a point.The point beam is a little disappointing because it is a square projection of the square LED chip itself.Liked the 3 brightness modes, strobe & SOS modes. (5 Modes total)Nice lens, rugged construction, with belt/pocket clip & lanyard.3 AAA batteries or carrier tube to convert to single 18650 battery.Great price, 2 for $14.99, would buy again.

Great value for the price! Highly recommend these lamps for that alone.The beam selection is a little clunky. You are forced to cycle through the modes from where you last had it. Clicks are high, medium, low, strobe, SOS. If you click from high to low, then turn the lamp off when it was on low, in order to get back to high the next time you turn it on, it turns on back in low and you are forced to click through strobe and SOS before getting to high. Would be MUCH better if each time you turn it off it automatically went back to high. Who really ever uses the strobe or SOS function anyway?!?!

Nicely machined out of aluminum. Bright a a nice zoom feature to widen and soften the beam when necessary.

For the price you can't beat these. Bright enough for any job or occasion. The only down side I found was the light doesn't reset the settings like most. Noatter how long the wait it will always pick up where you left off.

Two solid little flashlights. They all basically use the same type of LED chips anyway, although the Cree chips are a bit better. Your best bet on buying this pair (since they don't come with batteries or chargers) is if you already have a bunch of 18650 batteries lying around with those chargers they send you. Seems like the batteries and chargers last longer than some of the flashlights.So if you are already jazzed with the 18650 batteries and the chargers for them, this two flashlight offer is a good deal. If you don't, you might be better off buying a set that already comes with batteries and a charger. But why buy more batteries if you already have a dozen of them and plenty of chargers lying around?

The clip is a epic fail! It does not hold on too the belt or anything. Keeps falling off. The flashlight it self is real dependable and sturdy but bulky. Would not recommend it for stealth operations but otherwise it's good but could improve. Please do better if you decide to do another version of this proudt.

Best deal for 2 - 18650 flashlights. I do lots of biking and needed a platform I could easily swap batteries while on the trail. I got an 18650 headlamp to complement these being attached to my bars. I feel I'm doing my part to reduce lithium waste, and it's way cheaper when you will need to replace batteries after every ride

For being a cheap flashlight, it’s really not bad at all. I like the different modes on it, and the adjustable focus/zoom on it. It’s not as bright as I was hoping, but for $15, the two flashlights will get their use for sure. Probably wouldn’t buy again if they break/I lose them, only because they are dimmer than I was expecting them to be.

I bought a couple of these for stocking stuffers for some Meals on Wheels recipients. They are very bright and handy to have around in case of a power outage.
