Review on Flashlights Hausbell Flashlight High Adjustable Resistant by Matt Simpson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Love it. My 3rd purchase!

No ordinary cheap flashlight. Robust aluminum body. If you break or bend it, please post how. No stupid plastic battery holder (which breaks down over time). This is my third order because people keep wanting/taking mine. Seriously, I have over 100 flashlights laying around (about 50 in stock with the batteries removed). Those tail kicks. BRIGHT. Continuous. The three-position switch is a bit annoying, especially if you accidentally switch to disco mode. But mine reverts to bright steady mode for about 3 seconds after turning off, including those in that order. At least I don't have to go through all the settings to get back to a bright permanent state. Actually, I forgot about the dimming and flashing modes. I turn on the light (Bright Steady), use it, turn it off and time flies. Next time I need it, it will glow brightly and evenly again. I've never been surprised by a flash other than playing/testing them when I first got them. Did I say "Bright"? This is the poor man's version of Surefire. With my income, $4 is doable, but $100 for a flashlight isn't. Seriously, don't let it shine in your eyes. Even with my eyelids closed (which I just did and I have acne). And it's powered by a Revain Basics AA battery. Due to mixed reviews I'm waiting for my 14500 batteries and charger to see if I can get even brighter light (which would be great!) or double the battery life. Oh, back to cheap LED flashlights, I like them but they don't have range (the distance the beam travels). These housebells have enough shots to make it into the big leagues. Second only to my 12v car battery or my plug-in headlights (I live out of town. Far from home).
