Review on πŸ”¦ Bell + Howell 1176 Taclight: High-Powered Tactical Flashlight with 5 Modes, Zoom Function, 22X Brightness, Weatherproof Design - Perfect for Outdoor Activities, Camping, Emergency - As Seen On TV (Original) by Nick Andep

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Almost the same design for all flashlights.

Almost the same can be bought for $5. Look around on amazon. This magic (high lumen output) flashlight is not really magic. These flashlights use CREE LEDs. This is not new technology at all. CREE has been around since 2012 and they produce high performance and long lasting LEDs at a low cost. Bell + Howell is one of those companies that run TV ads that say they've revolutionized the world of flashlights, but "their" design isn't actually their design. I encourage you all to read this comment, search Amazon for "LED tactical flashlight" and let me know what you find. All flashlights from Outlite, Tactical Elite and Nestsun have almost the same design and are $10 cheaper. You can get the Outlite Tactical LED Flashlight for $11. Same functionality, same design, same (five exclusive modes used by high-end special forces) which is absolute nonsense. They make you think that the military has these highly rated flashlights (laughs, classified flashlights?) that are very bright and long lasting, if so, they use flashlights, but they're not like that at all. The military uses flashlights on guns. So don't fall for this false advertisement that this flashlight is a top secret LED technology. Buy one from another company that doesn't lie about competitors' prices and that uses it. The police don't use this flashlight. EMS do not use this flashlight. Stop advertising like that. If I could put 0 stars I would. I only get this 1 star because the flashlight works, but you can buy the exact same one for $10 less. Don't consider this review useless spam, I have two of these lamps (not Bell + Howell, other brands) and they are the same as this one. save your money
