…each….bargain….
Dat blue wrapper… UltraFire anyone?
EDIT: I can very easily see some poor guy buying this, and boasting to his mates about it.
If anyone actually googles it, let’s hope it brings up this thread. Do not buy the 260 Lumen Rechargeable CREE LED Torch!! It is a massive waste of money, please look around the forum (and join) for MUCH better alternatives.

Haha, classic.
I suppose it’s a step up from the usual “Super bright, fantastic, amazing, brilliant” etc
3aaa 9 led pieces of crap thats usually available.
Jaycar are the WORST when it comes to price gouging. I remember seeing something (can't recall the part) that retails online for 50c, for purchase in Jaycar at the bargain price of $19.95.
That's approximately a 4000% price increase.
I only ever buy parts from them if I need the component that day and it's an emergency as I live close to a store. If I can stand waiting a few days, I buy online.
Probably due to MAP….
How bright is bright enough...
Runtime VS Lumens...
