The bad:
It feels flimsy, but maybe I'm not being fair.
It has five modes, and it doesn't remember what mode it was last on, so when I turn it on, it goes to mode 1. I happen to like mode 4, so I have to hold the on button for a second and then press it three times, watching the output to make sure I get what I want.
mode 1: low steady
mode 2: tail light
mode 3: medium steady
mode 4: high steady
mode 5: flashing, not sure which intensity
The tail light mode (2) is useless.
The good:
It lasted for two hours at high intensity (4).
The beam is, in fact, good, both in intensity and shape.
The price is almost impossibly low. It's gone up to $9, but that's practically free.
I have to test this more to be fair. I'm impressed overall. How did you find this?
The lack of mode memory is a serious deficiency.
That is surprising. Please let us know how it holds up.
