I did a rain check, hope they set aside mine.

I bought one, when they had em in stock. Magnet it over the
work bench of my van, and it is good work bench light. wish
they used AA cells, not AAA. Still, a good light for three
bucks.

I suspect the 48 hours is the time it will produce 'light'... very
different from 'useful light'.

Seems like for that price, you could crunch some numbers and come up
with the right size resistor to modify, and permanently wire one or more
of them into your van's electrical system.

Also check some of these, most if not all already set up for 12V use

I suspect the 48 hours is the time it will produce 'light'... very
different from 'useful light'.

And for those who have not yet used LED flashlights, it is
difficult to tell when it is about out of juice. Unlike an incandescent
light (flashlight or whatever), the color does not change as the voltage
drops. It just gets dimmer at the same blue-white color until it
suddenly winks out.

Enjoy,

I've learned to have at least one set of spare batteries on
hand. Same goes for FRS walkie talkies.

My experience with ultra cheapo units has been that the number of LEDs
showing light goes down near the end of battery life.

My Mini Maglite LED will start to flash intermittently.
I then know that the cell cap is loose or that it is
time to replace cells.
