gives off a very strong light.

Nice little flashlight, but the batteries that came with it didn't work and one of them was dented. Not worth my time to return it, because I like the light.

I wished someone who'd purchased this item before I did would have told the truth review about this plastic junk called "Dorcy Lantern!" This lantern's flimsy internal parts were rattling loosely inside the lantern when I removed it from the Amazon brown envelope. I called Amazon for a return and was told I would receive a refund and to discard the item. I kept the 4 batteries that came with the lantern but immediately tossed the cheap lantern in the trash! DON'T BUY THIS ITEM! Amazon forced me to click 1 star before submitting my review!

Excellent simple hand held flashlight. Easy to hold and easy to replace with simple double A batteries. Love it!

Funciona muy bien

i like this;.. i will buy again ..this puts out alot of light..compact inexpensive..i am impressed...i will buy again

Compact size, bright LEDs, on-off only no signaling features. It's good if that's what you are after - no frills. Batteries included makes the price fair. I like the squared off form factor - set it down and it won't roll away. The top closes on a gasket and the switch appears well-covered, so I think there's real water resistance. The switch is usually the weak spot on inexpensive lights, but this one feels crisp and robust. The simplicity of no additional pushbutton switch features is probably a bonus for reliability and straightforward usability. I thought I was getting a different color but reading the description now I see you don't get a color choice - no big deal anyway. One moment of confusion installing the batteries, you drop them into little tubes that aren't marked for polarity. Look on the underside of the top for polarity markings, it's not obvious until you see those markings. I took off one star for that, otherwise it's 5-star for well suited to price/purpose. I wouldn't have this as my sole light out camping or for critical situations, but it's fine for utility use and as a backup.

Llegó rápido mi pedido y es lo que yo compre. Gracias

Ilumina muy bien

It works great when you put your own batteries in. Still a deal. There are no instructions on how to place the batteries and the +and - symbols are down in the well and difficult to place. So after trying different combinations I took my first photograph for an Amazon review. NOTE : how the batteries insert . The positive and negative will charge the light only in this configuration. It is bright. I just purchased it and tried it in the same day which is November 2024. Longevitiy of bulbs? I will let you know.

Very, very light weight. Excellent amount of brite light ! Smaller than expected…great for the money, except the need to buy tiny batteries.Very sorry that there was no chance to order by color…the yellow one wasn’t the one that arrived.

Sure the handle could be a tad bigger, it could have a hole for a lanyard for hanging and slipping your hand through, but for the dollar it is simple to power, turn on and off, I can drop it and it still works, and it throws a very generous beam of light. And if I clumsily, or otherwise, drop it overboard, I won't cry myself to sleep. Affordably priced, durable and very effective. I have three on board.

This is a very nice littler bright light, if you have big hands only your first three finger will fit on the handle. I wish the handle was longer and not open ended, I can see it slipping out of my hand if i don't pay attention. The handle is hard plastic so it can be slippery if your hands are wet or cold, I plan to warp the handle with cloth tape this will help and to somehow attach a wrist strap. There was no sticker on the lens as reported in the past, someone was listening to those comments. Four AA batteries are included with the light, which is nice so can use it straight away. The light is the size of a Foster's beer can [short and fat] but a inch or two taller. I was surprised when I unpacked it, I was thinking I was going to get a light similar to a 6 volt hand help light. This light with batteries is very light , easily less than half the with of a 6 V battery.I have a 6V 3-LED $5 flood light I picked up at Lowe's or Homepot. Its heavy but it puts out a nice spot light and has out lasted two battery changes of the standard 6 V flood I also own. But this 9-LED light put that to shame, lighter and much brighter and only a few dollars more.Since this light is light in weight I'm planning to order more and give them to my mother and aunt, the are up in years and have complained about the new LED flashlights being to heavy or to tiny to use. The both like the whiteness of the LED lights but hate the size or weight. This is a perfect size for them both, it will make i nice stocking stuffer, also it has a big button so that's makes it easy to push on/off.This is a spot light more than a flood light, but with an extra illumination phase. It has an interesting light pattern, when you turn it on [dark room or out side] you get the white spot light in the middle and best way to describe it is and halo or aura surrounding the spot light. Its doesn't give the normal even spread of light you'd get from a normal flood lights. I tried this a few minutes ago to help me describe the light pattern and size this little light outputs. At ten feet with the light shinning on a brick wall outside you get a ~2' of very white light and ~12' of aura light, which is bright enough to see most everything else. This would be very useful walking at night, the spot is your focus point the aura lights the rest well enough not to trip over something.Someone wrote about placing the light on a table pointed up, so I tried it and it does work very well and it put out enough light to make dinner the night the lights died and see our food as we ate. Great alternative to candles and way safer.BTW, the wife likes it, not much impresses her.Update: Since the east coast storm Sandy passed by us a few days ago we along with a few thousand neighbors lost power so this light got a full test. Now I was using it as a normal flashlight and it does light up an area well but I still was surrounded by darkness. So for the heck of it I pointed the beam straight up at the ceiling while I was walking around. As mention earlier with the beam pointing up the light does give an umbrella effect with the light output. Pointing the light upward lit up a 7-10 foot area around me and it made walking in the dark a breeze. I was now able to look at the floor and see things I know I may have missed if i was using this flashlight as normal. It worked so well in the up position we put out all of the candles and just used these lights to light up a room. We even sat around it and played cards, it gave off that much light. I tried this same up-pointing with other flash lights and did not get the same wide covering effect as this flash light did. I don't feel like I'm walking in a dark room anymore.
