Just received my ultra expensive flashlight that cost me a cent. Well okay the freight was $9.99 but that was all the way from Hong Kong! How can these guys make money on these things?

Anyway just thought I would post this as I think it's a cool little flashlight, and because I'm cheap. :nana:

On a duration test it lasted for about 6 hours then dimming on a single 2500mah AA nimh cell. Even though it has 12 leds it looks about as bright as my 3 AA 4 led flashlight.

Turns on/off by twisting the front cap. Construction is all aluminium. Seems to be well made.

It's cute, it's cheap, it's no Fenix but hey it's 1 cent! (+$9.99) Remember this is AUD which is probably worth nothing in USD. :p

That's an Xnova.

For a real treat, try lighthound.com's 1AA/8 LED new Hi-Power version.

It's brighter than can be, and would blow that 12 LED away.

About $ 6.50.

I have a white and UV one of those,
really not bad for the $.
The threading is a bit loose, but eh, what can you expect.

I put a 14500 Li-Ion cell in mine,
overdrives it, but its real bright. :devil:

Ok thanks, now at least I can put a name on it. Definitely looks like a Ghost 2 alright from the review. Doesn't seem to be too bad in the review either. US $9.99 is more than I paid for mine all up including freight from Hong Kong so I'm happy. :)
