Tools and Hardware Reviews of Neiko Super-Bright 9 LED Heavy-Duty Compact Aluminum Flashlight - Gunmetal Silver
Customer Review: Decent
Summary: 4 Stars
I would not say this is super bright, but still think it is a good price for a decent small flashlightCustomer Review: Decent for the price
Summary: 3 Stars
I've seen cheaper flashlights with similar configuration but this one has a better quality build. The outside is a fairly attractive aluminum with some sort of anodizing. The LED's put out a bright, though slightly bluish tinted light and it will stay bright for a few hours, then will dim considerably as the batteries die. Put in high MAh Ni-MH batteries and the light output is even stronger, though rechargeables will have a power curve that drops off very sharp but they do last longer. The flickering issue is solved by keeping the rear cap screwed on tight. The button doesn't always work the first time so you may have to do multiple clicks to get it lit, disappointing. Its pretty tiny and convenient to have a few of these around the house, in the car, or just keep one in your pocket just in case. It uses a AAA battery carrier, so don't lose it for the flashlight is then pretty much useless.Customer Review: Decent light for the price

I bought this light because I was purchasing something else for 22.50 and wanted to get to $25 for free shipping. Shipping was $6 and the light was $4 so I figured I was saving $2 and got a light. For $4 this is a decent light. Very bright, not a real concentrated beam but great to keep in the car or by the bed. I would recommend the light!Customer Review: Defective

I thought I would take a chance and get one that doesn't have the spotty on/off problem so many others have reported. No such luck. It doesn't turn on when you click it. If you reseat the battery, or jiggle it around, it will eventually turn on and work, but when you need a flashlight, you need a flashlight, not one five minutes later.
A consistent design flaw or poor construction process.
On the plus side, it looks great, and when it works, it works well. I gave it to my 4-year old and bought a Smith and Wesson 28 light LED flashlight.
Customer Review: Defective right out of the package
Summary: 1 Stars
Nice idea for a cheap, light weight flashlight, but very poorly made. The light flashes on/off randomly. It will turn on sometime with the switch, at other times it must be lightly tapped or shaken, and sometimes nothing. It is essentially useless. It is most definitely NOT "Heavy Duty" as the description says. I liked the size and price, but this is just a piece of junk. I am returning it. Save yourself some aggravation, pay a few bucks more, get a name brand.
