Overall a great product, although showing its technological age. I bought mine about 4 years ago.

I bought this unit for use on backpacking trips because it's lightweight and very bright. I have used it at least once a week since and often more. I use it in many around-the-house projects.

I had the older single "Strength" unit - I bought my sons the newer adjustable light with three bulb brightnesses plus a strobe feature. All have been good performers. My unit did have a malfunction when one of the wires became loose at the switch. I found it and re-soldered the wire to the switch and it was back in action. I see this unit has been superceded by newer units and is in the "bargain bin" now - good deal if you are looking to save a few $$.

Pros - Light weight
Bright
Long lasting (3 AAA) batteries

Cons - The blueish light is not the best spectrum for humans to see. Pure white is better (at least for me).

Does not project a long distance beam - works best within about 15 ft.
