Rothco489: Army Style C-Cell Flashlights

Product purchased used for under $6 and it arrived defective. After fixing the contact points it works flawlessly, not the same build as a Fulton but it’s a good clone.Four basic color filters R/B/G/Y (not the same color density or set as the Fulton original) functional spare bulb under battery negative contact spring, 3 switch positions, o-rings are cheap and the plastic threads are concerning. All this said, if I’m buying a cheap flashlight it’ll be this one.The lenses can be replaced with 32mm dia. 1mm thick watch glass, battery conversion for AA or AAA, threads can be covered with teflon tape, o-rings replaced, bulb upgrade to led. The reflector is different higher profile then the mx991 so the height of the bulb body isn’t problematic like it is on other lights (no shadow throw). Modify to your needs imho it’s the same thing just smaller lighter and cheaper manufacturing. I’ll buy again, repair and upgrade.

Decent illumination and lightweight, has no protection to the bulb and would probably crack if dropped from a decent height.Overall a decent flashlight that you can modify if you need to.

This Rothco C cell size version of the Military angle flashlight is built much stronger than the Rothco AA call Military angle flashlight. The synthetic material is more durable.

Put batteries in it and nothing worked brand new batteries and nothing of the flash light worked. The looks nice but came broken

It is surprisingly smaller than I expected but it’s very practical in size and illumination is pretty good.

As with most other items made/sold by Rothco, this product looks good, but falls a bit short in quality. This item did not come with the belt clip, and the light is pretty dim for a new item (bought new batteries, so I knew that wasn't the issue).

Lightweight due to C batteries. Good brightness. Comes s/ various color gels that you can use if you wish for signaling. Belt hook. Basic, useful light.

As described and works well. After being accustomed to the days of LED lights these aren't as bright. Fast shipping and great price. I've bought 2 for my grandsons. Clips to their backpacks and vests.
