This review is from: Dorcy 41-4290 3AAA 1-Watt Tactical Flashlight (Tools & Home Improvement)

It puts out almost as much light as one of those high-dollar tactical lights that I own, but without the expensive CR123 batteries. It produces a tight, very bright beam. The flashlight has a charcoal-grey colored matte finish on a machined aluminum tube. The tube is checkered, so it won't easily slip out of your grasp. It is powered by 3 AAA batteries which are supplied. The beam will easily reach 100+ feet. Unlike other tactical lights which have xenon bulbs, the LED bulb on this flashlight will not heat up(and burn your fingers). Because it does have an LED light source, I expect battery life to be good.

The cons:

polycarbonate lens could scratch easier than glass (no big deal)

The button is on the end cap. I would have preferred the switch to be located where my thumb would be while holding it (again, no big deal)

There is no "dim" switch mode. It puts out too much light for use as a task light, where you don't want to be blinded if you are working in a small area. (but then, it is marketed as a tactical light)

Overall, the advantages far outweigh the cons if you want a very bright light source for a third of the price of the more expensive tacticals.

Ordered two of these lights. Put in the batteries and turned them on. The lights seemed to be fine until you went to turn them off. The tail cap switch on BOTH light didn't work and you had to click the switch a dozen times to get the light off! I returned them as defective. Only got one returned from Dorcy and that switch was defective also. I'm still trying to get my second light but am getting the run around.
