4.0 out of 5 stars Probably a good alternative to the Sylvania Dot-It lights, December 13, 2007

I bought these Fulcrum lights because they were a cheaper alternative to the Sylvania Dot-It lights, I could get 3 for a little more than the price of one Dot-It. So these are the pros and cons of the Fulcrums compared to the Sylvanias.

Pros
----
-The Fulcrums look much the same as the Sylvanias.
-Works the same; push down on the clear center area to turn on and off.
-Light output seems the same, very good.
-Unmarked, no words printed on front of the case.

Cons
----
-More cheaply made, plastic instead of aluminum.
-AAA batteries are NOT included. You need 3 for each light.
-Adhesive on the back of the Dot-Its seemed better.

By the way, don't stick the adhesive back sides of two of these lights together. They're VERY hard to get back apart...

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing......., December 12, 2007

Out of 3 lights, I am sorry to say that only one worked correctly. One would not come one, and one would not go off once I got it on. Difficult to remove the cover on 2 of them to get to the batteries. I had high hopes, but this time, just no luck.

Although Fulcrum may not have anticipated this use, they saved my life & sanity in the aftermath of Hurricane Ike. When I bought them, I had intended to use them as extra light when doing garden work after dark as well as lights for my closet.

After Hurricane Ike intruded on my life, I found several other uses for them. Living 100 mi. inland allows me a pretty good buffer from the wrath of hurricanes. (I went through both Betsy & Camille in New Orleans as a child. I chose to pass on any future front row seats as an adult.) Prior to Ike We'd not had more than 8-12 hrs. of pwr ourage from storms in my neck of the woods. Try two weeks of life without electricity, and we were some of the lucky ones! These lights were light enough to carry around in my pocket so that I always had one handy. Since I have to walk with a cane, carrying a flashlight left me no hands to carry anything else. When I walked outside after dark, they were lifesavers because there were no street lights. On the other hand there were lots and lots of downed trees to avoid as well as cars driving around at speeds that did not allow them to see far enough ahead to avoid hitting me or my dog.

As far as durability, they may be made of plastic, but they survived being dropped no less than once a day. They hit hard enough to knock out the backing & the batteries. They lit up again as soon as I located & replaced the batteries, and there was not a single crack in any of the cases. The only defect was pre-Ike. One of the backs was missing 2 of the raised pieces that enabled it to lock onto the front. This caused only a minor inconvenience as I had to remember to hold the back in place if I chose to use it. The batteries stayed in place without the backing.
