Just get a sofirn or something that lasts for $10 more
Just get a sofirn or something that lasts for $10 more
Why buy this flashlight at $10? Check out the above link. The same flashlight is for $7.79. The code still works. I verified a minute ago.
For $10 more you get an actual flashlight designed to last multiple years of everyday use and its rechargeable so no need to purchase AAs.
2 AA's is typical, 4 is wasteful. The cartridge design also also allows for lots of leakage leading to less actual use during storage. If you plan on using this for years the cost for the batteries would be more than $10
Compared to a flashlight that uses a 21700 battery (similar size) with higher brightness and battery life usage. Also, did I mention the rechargeability option? Batteries cost money. Even if you have or buy rechargeable AAs that might put the cost of the flashlight + batteries at or more than $20 anyways. Those Sofirns are typically USB-C and can be recharged via any source out there (powerbank, some phones, cars, etc.)
The only non-lion powered flashlight i own is a maglite 4D cell and thats bc those last multiple years in my car and doubles as a tool if needed

I bought two of them. The second one is for spare and parts. You can bet I don't store batteries inside the tube. Sure, a 21700 battery powered flashlight is better; but, I don't want to spend $130 for one just yet. For $7.79 each, I don't have much to complain. The halo is just the way it is.
Even I did spend $130 on a nice 21700 powered flashlight, I would still get these at $7.79 each. I don't mind to have some backup to the backup.

For replacement 21700s, try liionwholesale, and 18650batterystore.

There's a wurkkos wk03 with a sst40 LED on slickdeals for $10 on their website for 1800 lumens with a 18650 battery.

I'm not talking about those $130 overpriced bs. You get 90% of the build for $30-40. If it breaks, you can buy 2 more and it's still cheaper than that.
