Pros:

Cheap bluetooth headset.
Genuine Nokia.

Cons:

Bad audio quality, people on the other end cannot hear me very well.
When off battery discharges it self quite quickly.
Range is not too good, cannot talk with phone in my pocket, phone must be in line of sight with bluetooh.

Other Thoughts:

My retail pagkaging was all old and ripped and crushed when I received it

Bottomline:

If people on the other end do not complain about the audio quality then you have your self a cheap bluetooth headset.

Ownership verified by DX Cheap HID kit.... that works NOT 8000K

Pros:

Bright
Fits on my car
High beam function works
Ballasts manufature by Exsun
Lights up gradually when you first turn them on does not flicker like other HIDs I have seen.

Cons:

It kept blowing my fuse to I had to upgrade 30 AMP fuse
Hare to install in my car as mounting brackets are no good.
Brand is not BJ union or Ecko Max it is something else.
NOT 8000k! Even thought tag on bulbs say 8000k I have used a light meter to test and it is actually 6000.
Poor packaging bubls were covered in dust when I received them.

Other Thoughts:

After 1 min of turning them on each bulb will flicker once, I don't know if this is a built in function in the ballasts to allow bulbs to warm up before running at full power but I think its is quite a cool feature.

Maybe use the correct packaging to stop misleading people to think it is a BJ union product.

Bottomline:

Cheap and works

Ownership verified by DX AA torch that packs a mighty punch!

Pros:

Brightest torch I have owned to date.

Was able to light up a 4x4m room by sitting on the floor and pointing the torch towards the centre of the ceiling.

Very convenient AA power source.

Compatiable with GID tail caps (this took me a while to figure out how to change but in the end it was as simple as losening the push button from the inside)

Very smooth light spill transition, travels a good distance too.

Extreamly good build quality!

Cons:

It seems that I have a revised version of the torch and it now has a protruding tail cap which causes an inability of tail standing and candle mode (this is a shame considing its ability to light up a whole room!!).

Unable to disassemble the lens to clean for dust.

Lanyard is exactly 7cm long and well is pretty usless but I had spares at home.

Other Thoughts:

Perhaps.... nah can't think of anything.

Possibly have to carry it for long to test the drain on the AAs.

Bottomline:

This torch is just amazing! Everyone should have one! Could you imagine 100s of people standing together each holding one of these and pointing it towards the sky at night? It would be fliping insane!

Ease of Use: star
Build Quality: star
Usefulness: star
Overall Rating: starstar

Pros:

Not too many, maybe the fact that led even managed to come on was a surprise to me.

Cons:

Weak build quality
Led flickers and will not stay on
Contacts for the battery are corroded

Other Thoughts:

Well I'll need to wait for the GF to use it on me and get feedback from her to make a full judgement on its praticality

Bottomline:

Cheap item, would not buy again and don't recommend it to others either, rather have spent the money on the Pig led torch
