Neiko 'GIANT Light - Small Package' LED Flashlight
Pros
For a small lighting gadget, it gives out a very bright light. The beam is wide, uniform without any rings. I brought this one on a camping trip and it served quite well during the night hike in the pitch dark woods. There is also a slight blue tint but it doesn’t bother me much.
The flashlight is lightweight, making it easy to carry around for camping trips or as a tool in your emergency kit. Among others, I find this flashlight is the best priced for its simplicity. There are other more compact, high-tech flashlights if you are willing to pay for it.
Cons
Keep extra batteries if intend to use this flashlight on a regular basis – say if you use it as part of your job repairing electronics. The flashlight goes through the AAA batteries rather quickly.
Another thing that irked me was that it’s poorly manufactured. When I first used it, it kept on dimming and flickering. It was annoying as I had to keep on tapping the flashlight. A friend also encountered this before and pointed out that it was a connection problem between the batteries and the copper tabs. All it took was to bend the small tab outwards so that it would make better contact with the batteries.
If you don’t mind its flaws, the Neiko ‘GIANT Light – Small Package’ LED Flashlight is the flashlight if you are looking for a compact but powerful flashlight. Although the batteries may set you back a bit, the manufacturing problem is an easy fix.
