These little lights are quite bright for their size. It's great to have one on keychains for finding those keyholes in the dark. If you are buying them as gifts and want a good presentation, then I recommend screwing those screws tighters before giving it out. Build quality is otherwise good considering its price. The only issue I had with it is that the on/off switch is too tiny and requires finger nails to operate.
We would have rated it a higher ease of use rating if the switch were larger and if the batteries could be changed without screw drivers.

Great Value, Super Bright Light
These little lights are awesome! They are extremely bright and I almost blinded my brother with one. The price is unbelievable! I want to buy 90 more and make a chandelier out of them. Anyway, can't go wrong with this price. Great for little gifts!
Pros: These lights are incredible! These flashlights are fairly small but they produce more light than most keychain lights. Compared to my Streamlight Nano, I'm guessing these keychain lights are about 15-20 lumens. The price is also great. For 10, the price works out to be about 45 cents per light which is a fantastic deal. I gave two of these lights to my brother and he immediately bought some more for himself. Size-wise, these lights are fairly small and lightweight. They're about the size of a real Photon light and can easily be attached to your keys, backpack, neck lanyard, etc.
Cons: Nothing. These lights are excellent! (However, it would be nice if the flashlights have a strobe function but I'm just being picky.)
Other Thoughts: Lights are shipped OEM in a bubble envelope. Some of the screws may be loose so when you receive them, tighten the screws with a micro screwdriver. The white version releases a bit more light than the black version. Of the 10 lights I received, only 1 had a sensitive LED but this was easily corrected by opening the light and readjusting the contacts.
Bottomline: These lights are a MUST HAVE. Don't be fooled by the low price, they are the BEST keychain lights DX has to offer. Buy 10, 20, or even 30! Keep them all or give some to your family and friends. You never know when you may need a flashlight so hang some on your keychain, backpack, jacket zipper, etc.
Pros: Great little torch light which lights up very brightly just as everyone said. Quite surprising for its size. Good for emergency situations. Besides, it's handy, small, light and easy to carry around. I also like the fact that there's 2 ways of turning on the light. 1 by switching the on/off button for sustained light and another is to simply just push to on the light. Price is good too. Great to have one around you.
Cons: Build quality. One of the On/Off switch was not working for well for one of the light in my pack of 10. Had to adjust it abit.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: Great to have one around given the price. Useful and affordable. Great gift to give away too.
Pros: Really compact little torches, They are really bright!Perfect to give awayHandy little switch which I haven't seen on ones in the shops.So cheap!Hardly any dimming
Cons: Apparently not water-proof! One rusted up after getting drenched (Fairly water resistant).Some had to be opened and the leads bent to make them work properly (only like 1 or 2)
Other Thoughts: Really handy to put on all your keyrings to take out with you. Would be cool if the LEDs came in more variety of colours
Bottomline: Really great product if you want lots of cheap super bright tiny torches!
Pros: -Very very very cheap, my friends wont believe the price I paid for 10.-Unbelivably strong bright light.-Unbelivably good built quality (for the outside)-Great gift for anyone since its so small and cool.-Long lasting batteries
Cons: -metal ring is not very strong-"locked on" position is a bit hard to achieve if you are not used to it
Other Thoughts: I gave 9 of mine as gifts, and used the last one's LED to upgrade my mini maglite.
Bottomline: This is one of the products in DX wich i think is very worth the price, having a light in your keychain is very usefull and much better than using your cellphone's screen as a light.
