Very cool little light. How is the UI? Is the red light useful or is it really just a beacon? I know a lot of people like the usb rechargeable but, especially on small lights, I like to be able to replace the battery if needed.
Yeah, fair enough with the battery. I have been using rechargeable on my keychain for years now and find I don't have a problem keeping it charged and finding a usb chrarging cable and plug is actually easier than finding a battery (for me).
My first impressions very positive. It is longer than I was thinking, but still shorter than my car key and small diameter. It is lightweight - not as light as the littlest keychain lights, but at around 15g it's not much heavier.
I prefer the aesthetic of a metal light, but this is very practical and more subdued looking than I was expecting, with the diffused thick plastic.
Mostly, I find it a very good tool to have, with all the features being worthwhile. I like that it can go very bright for a short time if needed, or a reasonable 100 or so lumens for longer time for walks. The reading light built in to the body is awesome. PLenty bright at lower level, though nice it also offers brighter reading light. Very clear, diffused easy on the eye light for dim restaurant menus, reading a program in a theater or any up close lighting. And the beacon light is a very bright flciker that would be great to have if there's a flat tire at night or emergency. I have the UV, not the red light. I'm not sure when I'd use the UV, but it looks cool and makes the flashlight GITD a nice green for a bit.
