If you don't like it, just order the black one. They do have it in two colors. The yellow is a somewhat bright indusrtrial safety type yellow.
Some people prefer (or may even require) the yellow for safety purposes in industrial use. If it looks cheap to you, it really shouldn't matter what others think; it will still look cheap to you if that is what you've concluded.
Personally, I have several of both and don't really care which color I use (unless it is for a specific purpose that requires a specific color). But you're right, it has no impact on performance
And the plastic is definitely not cheap or frail, it holds up better than it would if it were aluminum.

Ok this is a dumb question, but I am about to order one and would like to know. I have seen pictures but would like opinions. To me the yellow looks cheap. Like a generic plastic light. That really doesnt matter performance wise, but it just bugs me. What do you think? cheap looking or does it look better in real life?
