Hello All!
In order to prevent confusion with the ratings change I made on FlashlightReviews.com (boy, some folks get ANGRY when you rate their light at a lower Star rating!) I have implemented a new symbol for the new system (at the suggestion of - believe it or not - a retired testing engineer from Consumer Reports!).
Since many ratings did change and people seem to be having a hard time with understanding the change in critera, I've switched the symbol to spots and the name to "Points".
[EDIT]
I was going to call them "Spots" but someone suggested "Points" as it sounds more professional. I agree, so that is what they will now be.
[END EDIT]
[EDIT 2]
Nov 14 - I'm back to Stars. I didn't like the way the Spots/Points turned out, and they served the purpose for a little while. I'm not planning on any further wholesale changes to ratings, so this should be the last change for a long time.
