    Great, bright flashlight. Only issue I had was the charging port got pushed in from charging too many times. For the price, I would buy again!

    I work at a local casino as a Security Officer and this little flashlight does the job! 800 lumens is plenty enough for my job and needs! On top of that, i havent even charged it yet in a month! Battery life is great if you use it on low or medium settings!

    There is not a better flashlight at a better price. Then this 800 lumen piece of awesomeness, then this rechargeable flashlight from Best Buy small compact. Multiple brightness levels, comes with a cool pouch for your belt, wrist strap. I bought 2 just so i had a back up.

    Perfect light for home, car, office, or work. Charges fast and lasts me multiple shifts. Very bright and also very dim when needed. I can do field paperwork at night or search rooms for lost items, in the dark very well. The click memory setting is a preffered mode and absolute fantastic feature.

    Incredibly bright, built pretty solid. Only complaint would be that the cover for the charging port doesnt like to stay shut. It also catches on everything, and opens itself. But, other than that, works great.

    A great little flashlight with 4 levels of brightness. It is especially good when working in confined spaces with little light. On the brightest setting it will get hot to hold. It is a great gift for someone who does repairs around the house or on machinery.

    This rechargeable LED flashlight is very bright and holds a charge for a long time. I had an Insignia one and wanted to get another one, but Best Buy didn't have it any longer...just their own brand. I decided to try the Best Buy Essentials one, and it's an exact match to the Insignia brand. I would definitely recommend this flashlight!

    Bought the flashlight because it was rechargeable and seen like most people like it and I did too, it has three light setting , it’s pretty bright for its size and when you charge it has light indicator that goes from red to green when charge, I use it for work and for $20 it’s reasonable priced.

    This a good option por edc flashlight. Light modes are suitable for every need. High mode is pretty bright. Just 2 Cons, you have to eeally push the cable in charging port so it actually starts charging, sometimes I get the feeling I am pushing it crooked. The other Con, lens gets hot in high mode if used continously

    These are fantastic. 4 levels of brightness and very sturdy. We have several and they’ve been dropped multiple times on hard surfaces in puddles and mud and still work perfectly fine. Will buy again.

    You don't have to run through "strobe mode" to change brightness on this light. I've been looking for this feature for a long time. With four light levels, this light should work for just about any situation. I'm not sure about the 200 meter range, but it will light up my neighbor's garage 200 feet away. It really is impressively bright. It has a good solid feel to the construction. The nylon case seems quite functional if not real fancy. The light includes a USB A to Micro USB cord so you can charge it almost anywhere. For the money, this is a great light.

    Was not sure if this was for me based on some reviews on how to operate. It took 5 minutes to figure it out with out the instructions and its really simple. It is bright and one thing that I i notice in all settings, it gets warm fast. Weight is moderate for its size and capability of being recharge after every use or once a month depending on your use. So far everyone that has seeing me use this light has been impressed. So I am ordering another one for a family member today. Had it now for a month or more, so im convince.

    It is small & easily charged. Just plug in the charger that comes with the flashlight & it is always ready to use when needed. The flashlight is small but it provides a great bright light. It is small so it is easy to use in small tight places..

    Representation pictures need a better to scale comparison. other than that definitely capable of germinating seeds, and or anything else that would use these tubs and lights I actually really do like the size of these definitely for quick germinating and straight to transplanting. definitely do not use a speed or a fast charger base/receptacle unless using a compatible cord for it. However in doing so you loose out on the provided [(timer-wire harness)] . All lights function of a mid grade portable charger also if reducing on power consumption. Would be nice if heat Matt came with digital meter and probe. all tubes do fit on heating Matt with proper arrangement. Thanks hope this helps others in decisions in this area
