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.
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.
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.
Hahaha..I actually saw this post last night and told myself not to forget. But wouldn't u know it, I sliced my way in with my pocket knife. I came here to leave my opinion of the light when I see this part of the thread again.
Doh!
Anyway, nice light for $6 and change. Ordered two yesterday and got them today! That was fast. As mentioned, very ringy when in flood mode but when zoomed, it gives a nice, not too tight beam. This will work nicely in the garage.
