(uploaded by spencer) Another pic of the throw on a wall hanging from about 3 feet.  Nice spot and spill. (uploaded by spencer) The pictures of the flashlight DX supplies are accurate. Here's light throw from about 5' in dark

Ownership verified by DX It's Cool Light

Price: starstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstarstar
Usefulness: starstarstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: 1.Small light comes with enough light
2.Use single AA battery.You can't beat that.
3.strap is big enough to fit your wrist.
4.Battery time is pretty long.

Cons: 1.no o-ring
2.It seems little smaller spot.
3.click thing is bit soft.
4.No lube

Other Thoughts: I also got the Small Flashlight Holster # 01373 and it still big for the flashlight.

Bottomline: I want to order some more of this because it's small enough for my kids and my wife to carry.
if you are looking for small flashlight for hiking and all...this is good enough.

Pros: - This one cute flashlight.
- Overall build quality is quite good, feels solid.
- Came with P4 emitter.

Cons: - Slight color difference b/w body and tail.
- dent and rough finish inside the body. Nothing major though.
- Not as bright as some other AA lights.
- It drains over 1A from the battery, and still is not as bright as some other AA light. It gets dim after an hour and half, then it stays "candle-like" dim for hours. The driver efficiency is poor and is not well regulated.

Other Thoughts: - The beam is like the picture you can see in this site.
- Very wide spill, which makes it useful inside the house. No thrower.
- You may want to replace driver board to get more out of this light.

Bottomline: Cute, useful household light. If you're expecting anythin

Pros: Absolutely the best flashlight i have purchased. very bright and runs off of a single AA battery. Contains the P4 led which is much brighter than the P2 led.

Cons: only get about 45min per battery before it gets kinda dim, the flashlight will get warm while on.

Other Thoughts: the led in the flashlight is replaceable, if you unscrew the head of the flashlight with some needle nose pliers you can get at the led to replace it.

Bottomline: get this flashlight it is probably the best flashlight that your 15$ could buy. I personally like this flashlight better than the RC-A2 flashlight, though this flashlight seems to have more throw which can be a downer if you looking at using it for close up work, as it can almost blind yourself while using it.

Ownership verified by DX Good light for the price

Pros: Small P4 led, runs well from eneloop cell. Efficient boost circuit.

Cons: No forward clicky like other Romisen's (this is a Romisen RC-A3 don't let the name Saik fool you.)

Other Thoughts: Compared to the Romisen RC-H3 this is a HAIR brighter, but only when white wall hunting, and very little difference. The H3 comes with forward clicky, orange tailcap if that suits you and a quai-assault bezel, and is a dollar cheaper.

Bottomline: Good EDC for the non flashaholic, great gift light. I would recomend the RC-G2 if you can handle the larger head, or the RC-H3 if you want the same slim style. I have yet to find a better single AA light on this website and I own many. More reliable than the ultrafire C3 or MTE. But not nearly as bright as a cr123 light.
