Saw this in a mail advertisement. If Lowes could pull this off for $10 I'll go down and by every one I could get my hands on!

I would think the add should really read "Kobalt 80 Lumen". 800 watts! That would cattle brand your thigh after a few minutes in your pocket! At 100 lumens per watt...

It uses two 10440's instead of two AAA's.
Looks legit.

800 WATTS?

Its an LED, so watts is not even a normal rating method other than as an equivalent to incan for comparison, etc.....and I don't think this penlight looking LED is putting out the lumens of that many 100 watt incan bulbs, etc.

I look at the math, and get 800 watts over what ever the voltage is = the amps.

I don't see a lot of ways for this to work?

:D
