But the batteries are worth more than the light and i would be unhappy to lose my Eneloops.
I don’t have any alkaleaks to put in it and they cost money.
In the end i have to use my good lights since i typically need good lighting. But my keychain Olight i3e does well in most (rare) situations where i don’t have an 18650 light on me.
That said i can see recommending this light to muggles, they buy their own batteries
i rolled up a strip of cardboard and dropped in an 18650 laptop pull.
its apparently got a resistor as it didnt go up in smoke.
it has no heatsinking to speak of.
ran 3 cycles and still the same as an unused control.
probably the best $1 light out there.
This one has ribs. Perhaps more pleasurable? 50 lumens too. Maybe the same cat in a different sweater? Cheaper by the dozen if it’s basically the same @.78 each. Plus ya get all the colors.
