enough said
Amongst my plethora of goodies I rate this item so much that it goes with me everywhere. it sleepsin my coat pocket and ihardly remember that its there.
The winter nights assure regular use - walking the dog across the field, reading in bed(wife undisturbed ;-)
going down to the garden shed,and the 3 AAA batteries havent flinched yet after many hours of constant use.
Oh,and a couple of nights down the woods with my tarpand hammock setup.
you won'tneed a lamp or a torch costhis caters for all needs.
The slide across lens diffuser provides a broader beam for close quarters, combined with 3 brightness settings, of which the dimmest is good enough for reading forhours on end.
The main beam would reach a rucksack in the darkwoods at a measured (paced)40 metres - no exaggeration.
This facility has a duration ofabout 20 seconds or so before it auto resets to prevent overheating &/or battery drain.
NICE KIT
