(More customer reviews)For the size, this thing is super bright, as good or better than a double D type light.I've had mine for over 2 years now, constant daily use, and haven't had to swap the bulb or battery.If you leave it on, it will get super hot.I've heard it will blow the bulb if you drop it hot.You can put it on the charger and leave it there, it won't overcharge.On a full charge, it will last all day, but starts to go dim towards the end.I wish it had something to keep it from rolling when you lay it on a flat surface.I noticed the newer led model is made with a deal to keep it from rolling.
UPDATE:I did finally have a couple problems with it.I dropped it and it stopped working.Opened it up, wonderful, it had a spare bulb in the tail cap.Simple swap, working again.Then the twist switch stopped working while the push was still working.Opened it up, slid the battery out, found the spring that pushes against the battery had caused a little dark dent on the battery contact area.Cleaned it up, reassembled, back in business.
Now, I believe from dropping it, the twist switch stopped working.The dents on the battery contacts are now deeper and no longer want to hit the contacts good.It looks like I'll have to replace the battery to get it to start working properly.
Then occasionally, it doesn't want to contact properly with the charger.Clean the contacts on the light and charger, snap in, and it works most of the time, but occasionally, I have to twist the switch to get it to start charging.Make sure it's turned off before you walk away.I also noticed it doesn't like being in direct sunlight on a hot day on the charger.
