Tools and Hardware Reviews of Neiko Super-Bright 9 LED Heavy-Duty Compact Aluminum Flashlight - Gunmetal Silver
Customer Review: EXCELLENT PRODUCT!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought 4 of these 21 LED lights expecting to be at least a little disappointed in some way but I was mistaken! These flashlights work GREAT! They flood the area with very white light and not just inside the house. This is a flood light and as such performs very well. I took one outside and was very suprised to see that it provided a great deal of bright light across a broad area of my back yard. The lights are very sturdy and fit just right in your hand. The 3 cheap batteries that came with the unit don't last long but copper tops and energizers last much better. Buy them you won't be disappointed!Customer Review: Quality is poor
Summary: 2 Stars
This flashlight was great, while it worked. After a few months, the switch became tricky to use - sometimes it would light, sometimes not; sometimes while I was outside in the dark, the light would go out suddenly & I'd have to jiggle the housing around to get it to light again. Even then, the lighting was inconsistent. When I opened it to try to fix it, the spring popped out & I was unable to insert it again - it was too far down in the flashlight to reach, even with needlenose pliers. You get what you pay for. For $5, it seems like a good deal, but I'd rather have a heavy-duty, reliable flashlight.Customer Review: Hard to keep lit
Summary: 2 Stars
It was only $5, so I didn't expect too much, but this thing is TINY. I guess I didn't pay close enough attention to the dimensions given, but I really didn't expect it to be so small. It's almost keychain small, but the light is nice and bright.
Problem is, there seems to be a bad connection between screw on top and battery which makes keeping the light lit difficult unless you press hard on the button the whole time. So, overall, I wouldn't recommend this one and think you could probably find a tiny, cheap flashlight at WalMart or a dollar store that would work better for less money.
Customer Review: Defective
Summary: 1 Stars
I thought I would take a chance and get one that doesn't have the spotty on/off problem so many others have reported. No such luck. It doesn't turn on when you click it. If you reseat the battery, or jiggle it around, it will eventually turn on and work, but when you need a flashlight, you need a flashlight, not one five minutes later.
A consistent design flaw or poor construction process.
On the plus side, it looks great, and when it works, it works well. I gave it to my 4-year old and bought a Smith and Wesson 28 light LED flashlight.
Customer Review: 9 LED flashlight
Summary: 4 Stars
I haven't used this light a lot since I got it, so my experiences with it are limited.
(I bought it for emergency use and haven't had emergencies)
The very small size is a boon for auto or pocket.
I was totally unprepared for the brightness this little sucker produces.
So for as little as I've used it, and the quite reasonable price, it is a very good item.
(A fiend came over the same day this was delivered and she was so impressed with the small size and brightness, she had me order two for her.)
