Tools and Hardware Reviews of Denali Super Bright 9-LED Heavy-Duty Compact Aluminum Flashlight, 3-Pack
Customer Review: BlahLights
Summary: 3 Stars
For 11 bucks, and 3 lights, what do you expect? Well, having them work, for one thing. The black one didn't work at first and luckily I work around engineers to tinkered with at a repaired it...the metal between the click button and the spring coil did not connect, so the light did not switch on. I don't know what the hell they did, but it's working fine now.
They are great for wide open areas, as they are a flood light, NOT a spotlight and cannot be adjusted. Great to buy a couple of 3-sets so you can have them everywhere in your house, your car, backpack/purse, whatever. Very light in weight (aluminum) and can fit anywhere.
As long as you don't need a light that will last you years and years, these will do the trick.

When these little lights work, they will be all the light you need. For about 30 minutes of use. Then they start going off in the middle of use until you jiggle them. Then they won't turn on unless you jiggle them. I've owned three, and only one (the newest) is still working. I'll use it until it dies, but it's definitely not my flashlight for anything important. The first one I owned completely fell apart. I tried to turn it on, but when I pressed the button the force (not much) pushed the battery back, which pushed the LED housing, which pushed its way through the cheap plastic lens on the front, which then vomited all the electronics innards onto the floor.
I don't recommend.
Customer Review: Perfect little lights!
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't know if I just got lucky, but all three of the lights I received worked perfectly...and have been for a few years now. I like to keep one of these wherever I need a little extra light...I have one in my closet to peek into shoe boxes or discern if that skirt is navy or black!, I have one in my lower kitchen cabinets to find the elusive lid to something way back in the corner or read what soup is in the can, I keep one in my car, drop one in my pocket when we go trick-or-treating, etc. etc. I even put one in some family members' Christmas stockings. They are just nifty, portable little lights to use anywhere, and cheap enough that you don't fret if you misplace one.Customer Review: One out of three ain't bad?
Summary: 1 Stars
Out of the box, all three worked - very bright. About an hour later, one of them would not turn on, and another would come on dim. I changed out batteries and traded out caps (the switch is in the cap), but the problem appears to be connectivity between the ground connection of the little LED circuit board and the flashlight body.
The second one finally quit a few days later, but the third one still works well. It's the silver one, and I suspect the color treatment of the other two is what killed the conductivity.
While the price is good, I'm left with only one working flashlight. I wouldn't recommend this purchase.

Customer Review: Not Very Bright
Summary: 1 Stars
The best flashlights at one point were Maglites but as LED technology improved, I started looking for a great LED flashlight. Frankly, these aren't it...
They go through batteries fairly quickly, don't produce a well focused beam and they're kinda dim for 9 LEDs. I found that if you're looking for a great LED flashlight, look for ones that use the Luxeon bulbs. I found a version sold at Costco in a 2 pack for about $20. The Luxeon bulbs are incredibly bright and efficient and produce a powerful beam that is like a spotlight. These are ok to give to the kids but for a serious portable flashlight, do your research and compare.
