In need of a keychain flashlight
Hello all,
I recently had my keychain flashlight taken away from me when going to a red sox game, I guess they don't allow flashlights in fenway. It was a $10 lumintop tool AAA so I wasn't too heartbroken. I had purchased it recently to replace an i3e EOS that stopped working.
I would just re-order it, as it was pretty inexpensive and seemed to do a good job of chuckin light. But I wanted to see if a little more money would get me something a little better.
I don't use a flashlight daily for work, or in my personal life. The reason for having it was wanting something accessible that's better than my phone flashlight in a pinch as I always have my keys with me.
An integrated and non-removable battery is fine, but I do have a preference for user replaceable. Whether it be AA, AAA or one of the numbered lithium cells available.
As far as features go, I noticed there were options that had a more diffused mode for light, so I could put it on a table or something and brighten up the surrounding area. That seemed cool to me, but the only way to do it on the lumintop was to carry around a little rubber cap to slap on the top of it. Definitely not convenient, I'd lose that thing in a second. If there was a light that could do it without carrying around a cap, that'd be a pretty big selling point.
