$7 Rayovac Roughneck CREE XP-E Flashlight, 2D batteries (incl), Spot-to-Flood, Side Switch, Free ship (US)

Welcome to the site, REVENGE.

I got mine today and ordered another . It's a great light for the money, but I do get free shipping so that makes a difference.

The beam pattern is not too bad, I am putting one in each car and forgetting about them so if the batteries leak and destroy it who cares.

6.16 + 5.85 to ship =12$

if you buy 5 they are 30.80$ and free shipping

or you can buy other stuff to get the order above 25 $ to get free shipping

I have a bunch of the tenergy NIMH D's so there is no leaking in lights anymore

So rain proof. Not bad.

Got mine today too and am happy with it. The rubber protection around the head, tail and along the body make this a perfect light for the kiddos. Everything about it feels very sturdy. Thinking about ordering some for the cars too and just leaving them in the packaging so I don't have to worry about battery leak lol.

I bought 4 and these are great as Christmas presents, white elephant games. Yep, Christmas is coming soon.

Got some this morning...thanks for the heads up.

Mine came today. Not a bad worklight, but the beam is ringy as heck. It's worth $10 as a knock-around, short-range light. It is not going to replace an L2 or even a Maglight.

The biggest thing to dislike about it? #%$ *&@! CLAMSHELL PACKAGING. JEEEeeeeez, I wonder how many people get cut or injured trying to take things like this light and batteries out of the clamshell. I HATE that stuff. Had to use a serrated knife to get through it, put a nick in the body of the light when I did it.

BTW, this $6 light is almost exactly the same size as a TK41, just little thicker body. Very comfortable to hold, especially with the rubberized inserts.

It is an XP-E with some sort of moving-aspheric that is part of the flood-to-throw mechanism.

Edit again...the throw on this light is not too bad. Puts a very cool white hotspot out about 150 feet pretty clearly.

Or you can use one of those snap-off razor knives with the adjustable blade length . Just leave about 1/16 of the blade showing .

i use tin snips

No i'm pretty sure you need to use whatever exduct knife they just sent you ..:P

So is this light ,Not ringy at some setting ?? has anyone torn one apart yet ?

Haha, like I said...why should you need access to tin snips to open a *&^%ing $6 flashlight? Hazardous and environmentally unfriendly, clamshell should be banned from the planet. Every year 6000+ people end up in the emergency room due to injuries caused by clamshell wrap.

Has anyone tried these "2*AA to D Battery Adaptor Converter cases"?

On the back of the packaging there's a perforated tab that you can pull for bladeless opening. Worked for me at least.

Ahh, I didn't even see that.

Impatient me....

Gotta be smarter than the packaging
