Product Description
I have to agree with the review by Mark Leedom. The usable light doesn't last anywhere near as long as the manufacturer states (about 5 mins max). Having said that I have used similar flashlights before and knew this to be the case before I bought this, so I'm semi happy with my purchase. I wanted something for absolute emergency and unfortunately this is the best there is at the moment!
