Stellar SZ-12 High Performance 500 Lumens LED Flashlight Ultra Bright CREE XML-T6 Adjustable Zoom. Aluminum alloy. Valuable Addition to Camping Hunting Walking Power Outage

I have to carry a flashlight while working on a ship. I need a light that is dependable and sturdy as they do get dropped on a steel deck. I bought some of the other lights listed on Amazon and learned the hard way they were over-rated by "paid" reviewers. Beware those cheap fake lights that make outrageous claims of super powers.This light is the real deal, for the money. It is not a $100 professional light by any means but of the lights in this price range it shines (excuse the pun). Its is built with a sturdy body. It fits together well. It has a real Cree LED (the fakes claim to but lie and don't). It is rated at 500 Lumins but is more powerful than the fake light I got that was grossly over rated at 1000 lumins.I am a real customer that uses a product and pays full price. If it is bad I will tell you and it if is great I will sing its praise. I hate fake reviews and won't give on. Like you I just want to know what I am getting.I like this light a lot as for its price it gives far more value than the cheap fakes out there. It is not a $100 professional light but then don't expect one for this price. I love this thing and will buy another as for this price point I have not found one any better. You will have to spend a lot more money to get anything better than this and unless you really need to have the ultimate quality and durability of the high end lights I doubt any other light will preform any better.

I can't recommend this lantern, and I really wanted to like it. It arrived quickly, but right out of the box the white LED lantern did not work. I tried charging (even though the unit showed fully charged) and no luck. The red LEDs worked and probably the power bank function is fine. I think the case that it came in is pretty cool, along with the provided hook, but the unit actually didn't look very slick in person and has a clunky, brick-like feel in the hand. I returned for refund, as I would like to find a dependable, small emergency lantern and power bank - one suitable for backpacking as well. I just can't take the chance on this one again, even though I like that it has an included case. Two stars for the case and the hook.

I am very happy with this product. It has a solid look and feel and it is very bright. I like having the rechargeable lithium battery and the option to use AAA batteries. This is an excellent value. If you are ordering only one buy the set to obtain the lithium battery charger.

Nice heavy flashlight for the price. They put out good illumination and the slide to increase/decrease the area of light works smoothly. I purchased two of the lights and one had a flickering issue on arrival. This was promptly addressed by the company. I would recommend this light to others.

The lantern is very bright and well made. It's perfect for camping or to use as a utility light. The lantern can light up a large room in my house and the battery capacity is very good, actually better than advertised. The dimmer switch is great for conserving power when full brightness is not needed. I recommend this lantern to anyone who is looking for portable and versitile lighting solution.

In only a few month's time the light ceased to function, and the LED lost its intensity before going kaput. The SOS and defensive function come on intermittently and there is no way to control when they do come on, so all too often you get a flasher when you need constant light which is extremely frustrating. But the worst part is the wasted money on something that looks nice but becomes worthless in short time. Buy something else.

Excellent flashlight. Super bright. Just as good as the $50 and up ones as far as brightness is concerned.

This is a good light for the price. Use this light because I'm a mechanic and I need to see in dark areas used this light once and the next day stop working had to tighten the switch from inside just make sure it's tight once you get it and u should be fine and not zoomable which is good
