Saw an promotion online and the pink little flashlight attracted me.
With 9 LED lights, the flashlight would be bright for tens of inches for most of the time.
Was going to get one and ask if anyone have had one and give me some advice. Worth to get one? Here's the link.
No .
Those are low-power LEDs.
The light may be good indoors and excellent when you work in a dark spot, less so outdoors.
The lights discussed here use high-power LEDs.
I wouldn't take one of those for free.
The last one I received was a door-prize freebie. I actually cut my finger on the thing while unscrewing the tailcap.
I don't know, I mean, I kind of like the custom two-tone red silver on the front edge of the bezel
That's the photographer's skin, dthrckt.
lmao
ok, so if someone DOES try to give you one you'd better TAKE IT and CRUSH IT in your vice - for safety's sake
Man, the paisley is knee-deep tonight.

Harbor Freight gives those away for free. Haven't taken one yet. Also they should probably be less than a dollar.
I can buy this flashlight for only $1.65 in my local nightmarket.
Yeah, like some said, you can get it for free in some cases :D
Paisley Pony says "Neigh!"
That does not qualify as flashlight. Better stripped bare and the amuminium milled into fine powder. Add some iron oxide together in a bowl (outside) put the rest in it and ignite safely.
Thermite should do the job of disposing that nonsense.
Must admit I was quite unaware of this new BLF attitude toward newbies...
The attitude is appropriate for spammers. Although innocent newbies sometimes get accused of spamming, I think the paisley is pretty obvious this time. :)
Newbie? Where?!
I bought couple of these to use as walking light in country side for my family, its an ok light with bit of flood and no throw, cool blueish tint, 3xAAA, cant say anything about battery life since I havent used them and tested, but its OK light when used in the middle of nowhere in absolute darkness and no light other than that coming from neighbors windows :D.
Got it for 1.17$ a piece from ebay, wouldnt say that link posted is a bargain :D!
So, for non-flashaholic its pretty good disposable light, and I think these last longer than other cheapo lights that use 1xAA, thats only my observation probably because latter have both throw and bit of flood while OP's light is more about flood and closer range so the drop in output isnt that obvious and uncomfortable like it is with single power led flashlights that have some bit of throw and hotstop to them.
BTW, if anyone of you get them pay close attention to how you insert AAA batteries into caddy, Ive had lights where you cant put the caddy when loaded with batteries back into flashlight because the batteries stick out too much from the caddy, oddly enough I got refund on those lights and later on after many months when I tried them again batteries went in just fine, tho I applied some force to squeeze them deeper into caddy when it seemed like the batteries have been already pushed as far as possible into caddy.
