It is < $9.00 with free shipping. Thanks in advanced for your advice.
You're only out $9, so give it a shot. I'd be concerned about the brightness and the battery life. The seller isn't spouting off about how many million lumens it produces, or how long the batteries last, so I wouldn't have high expectations of it's performance. It seems underpowered to me.
