Review on πŸ”¦ Vnina Rechargeable Tactical Flashlight: USB Magnetic Flashlights with COB Flash Light, 4 Models, Zoomable, Waterproof – High Lumen LED Torch for Indoor & Outdoor Use by Robert Blair

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works well but your expectations match the price.

Pros: Inexpensive, USB rechargeable, backlit power button, easy-to-use controls, side emitter produces quality floodlight, magnets in base feel nice, can stand freely on anyone The Bad: Fresnel -Reflectors are simply a poor choice for most applications. With a forward-firing emitter, you have to choose between a ton of floodlight with no hotspots in the beam (which is best achieved with an open emitter on the side for floodlighting) or a not-so-bright beam focused. and projects an image of the emitter surface. This means that a square image with lines in it is projected. Total Internal Reflection (TIR) optics or a traditional reflector would provide a much more useful beam with no artifacts. Both of my headlights appear to have been used as evidenced by dried dirt on one of the headlights (which I cleaned with a toothbrush) and the other headlight also had a lot of wear on the fairing around the edges of the headlight such as a few chips and dents. Final Verdict: These are cheap rechargeable flashlights. You get what you pay for and you don't get what you don't pay for. Those are pretty good headlights, but if you want to use them for your front beam I'd look elsewhere. The convenience of charging without having to remove the batteries is great.
