SdeNow Mini Flashlight Rechargeable, 500 Lumen EDC Pocket Flashlight with 5 Modes, Magnetic Tailcap LED Handheld Flashlight Water Resistant Torch for Camping 16340 Battery Included

There are three things I have in my pocket at all times. A Fisher space pen, a small Victorinox Swiss Army knife, and a pocket sized flashlight. This little light just replaced my Streamlight Microstream. This tiny thing puts out is just as good, it’s a third of the size, and it’s rechargeable. The o-rings seal tight so the end doesn’t accidentally twist in my pocket and turn on. The only thing that would make this better is if the loose end pice would screw onto the tail while it’s charging so there is less chance of it getting lost. Luckily it doesn’t take long to charge, so I’ve managed to keep up with it.

I bought this along with a Olight I1R 2. The Olight is just a hair more expensive however the light difference is massive. This is rated at 200 lumens, the Olight I1R 2 is rated at 150 lumens. However that does not tell the whole story. The Olights have a high/low setting. Photo is on the high setting. Both were packaged well and seem well made, but the cost vs light clearly favors the Olight.Disclaimer: I have no relation to either company, just bought both to see the difference.

Build quality is ok, and yes it's tiny so convenient you can easily put it in your pocket and charge it with your micro usb. But it's nowhere near 200 lumens! This is FALSE ADVERTISING. I would say this is as bright as the Maglite Solitaire which is rated at 47 lumens. My Thrunite Ti3 is rated 120 lumens and it's much brighter. I should have paid $10 for a 100 lumen usb chargeable flashlight instead.

This light is now tucked into my go-bag. I thought it might replace the Streamlight Stylus Pro that's been EDC in my pocket for many years, but it won't. Here's why:PROS:* Lightweight and compact. but not as slim as I would like to slip in a pants pocket (as compared to the Stylus Pro)*The removable clip is sturdy and allows attachment to the bill of a baseball cap to serve as a headlamp*Rechargeable lithium battery and micro-USB port are a huge advantage*500 lumens in strobe mode are plenty bright to discourage and disorient an attacker*Comes in a neat little semi-hard shall zipper caseCons:*A bit fat for pocket carry*Takes practice to get the hang of changing modes*With the clip configured for cap attachment it leaves the lens upright and exposed for pocket carry*The rubber cover for the charging port came off the first time I tried to use it. Can't get it back in its holeOverall, a good value and highly recommended as a backup for purse or pack.UPDATEI purchased this light in March of 2018 and it is now January 2019. Sometime in 2019 I had more need for a handy flashlight in my home office than I did in my go-bag, so for about a year it's been attached to a metal component of my computer desk right at hand when I need to get down and sort through the tangle of cables behind my "desk"top computer that sits on the floor. Last fall I joined my local CERT and needed a light that I could carry in that role. This one met all the criteria - bright, dimmable, USB rechargeable, easily carried in my safety vest, clips on the bill of a baseball cap, magnetic base, easy to deploy but out of the way when not in use...everything but water-resistant, since the rubber cover for the USB port broke off. So here's the update: I just bought another one to use outdoors in unpleasant weather and demanding situations. This time I'll be more careful with the USB port cover. I'm still carrying my Streamlight for EDC. I'm not adding a star, but just wanted to reinforce how useful and practical this pocket light can be. Don't get hung up over lumens. In bright mode this light is plenty bright on a cold winter night patrolling a large crowd at a municipal Christmas tree lighting ceremony.

The device is small and doesn't put a lot of weight on key chain. It gives out a nice light to see your way in front of you. The light kept flickering on and off when it was in my pocket. Kept it charged whenever it started to dim. I purchased another one as a gift, but the first one finally gave out. I tried placing a newly charged battery in the problem flashlite but it didn't work. So now I have an empty metal tube as a reminder not to purchased another one. It was good while it lasted...

Totally bizarre. The package I received (see picture) contains a tiny BATTERY POWERED flashlight, even though the package included a USB charging cable and printed instructions for a 'USB chargable flashlight' Repeat: THIS IS NOT A USB-RECHARGEABLE FLASHLIGHT, IT REQUIRES A SMALL BATTERY OF SOME KIND (that also does not have a USB plug)

It's cute, light, reasonably bright. Kind of a bummer that it only has on/off settings rather than multiple brightness settings, but not that big a deal.Biggest problem is that it did not charge with three different kinds of micro-USB cables I had laying around, I had to use the one in the package, which I think is about a millimeter longer than usual. I've never had this issue before, even with other 10180 lights with the unscrew to charge mechanism. I consider this a dealbreaker.Also it did not come with the usual plastic/paper disk preventing activation until removal, unlike most lights I've received recently that come with batteries installed. I don't think that's a big issue since the battery is so small but that's also a red flag.
