Tools and Hardware Reviews of Neiko Super-Bright 9 LED Heavy-Duty Compact Aluminum Flashlight - Gunmetal Silver
Customer Review: Not amazing, it just works
Summary: 5 Stars
Do yourself a favor and just buy the dang thing. I went on a 2 month backpacking trip and, believe you me, I used this flashlight many a times while running through the woods/prairie/rocks to do my business. Definitely not the most powerful light out there, but I wasn't really looking for a floodlight. I wanted a dependable, durable, easy-to-carry, small flashlight with a bright-enough light and this did the job. I know other customers had problems with the build, but my flashlight never failed on me and I didn't even have to use the back-up batteries I took with me. Amazing? - nope, it is a flashlight after all. Good enough? - yup.Customer Review: not as bright as other 9-led lights
Summary: 3 Stars
Two things bothered me about this purchase. First, this light was advertised as a "buy together" with another similar light that qualified for free shipping under Amazon prime. But this light does not qualify for that since it's from another vendor, so I ended up paying about twice as much as I thought. Second, it is not as bright as the other similarly styled and priced cool blue or black flashlights I have bought from Amazon. The batteries are toss-out quality. Seems brighter with better quality batteries.
Still, it's a good light for the car, taking very little space and fitting in tight glove comprtments with ease.

I bought two of these for my niece and nephew for Christmas, only to discover today (Christmas) this alarming warning.
Customer Review: it's a flashlight
Summary: 3 Stars
The LED light is bright white but sometimes makes it hard to see. I use it when I work on my car and seeing into those small spaces with this flashlight is hard at times. It is a nice flashlight and it is very handy; however, sometimes it dims for no reason as if it is getting less power from the batteries but then when I shake it the light gets bright again. That might be specific to my flashlight though. Overall, this flashlight is a decent flashlight. It deserves 3 stars because there is nothing really wrong with it but it doesn't get four or five stars because it isn't above average or an exceptional flashlight.Customer Review: Worst item ever ordered
Summary: 1 Stars
I read all the reviews AFTER I order three of these and none of them worked. Wish I had read them before. I appreciate that some of you can MAKE them work by soldering, etc., but I purchased them for my 85 year old Dad for a Christmas present and the item should work out of the box. No clear direction on which way batteries should go or which way battery pack should go back into flashlight. I tried every possibility I could find and nothing worked. I have never had occasion to return an item from Amazon, but all three of these didn't work and are being returned the day after Christmas. Such a disappointment.
