Got dim after 10 minutes of use, died completely after 15 minutes. Went to replace the batteries and found them to be special LR44 ones (not a standard AA or AAA). Bought new ones $$$ and light still doesn't work. Bummer. You get what you pay for (sometimes less).
Pros: cheap, really cheap
Cons: non-standard batteries, flimsy construction
Would recommend: No

I'm a "rank-amateur" astronomy enthusiast, and this Carson flashlight is the handiest light I've ever had to avoid that dreaded intrusion of night-vision-wreaking, anything-but-red light! The Carson provides a bright light, is light in weight, and has a tough casing. And I love the attached key chain! I hooked it to one of those webbed ID carriers that dangle around the neck, and I never have to go hunting around in the dark when I want to consult a star chart or locate a particular eyepiece. Great bang for the astronomy buck!
