The data of the flashlight short and sweet: With a length of 9cm and a diameter of 2cm it is very compact and can be attached with a metal clip to clothes such as the belt. There are no different light modes, just a simple on/off switch, a simple AA battery is required for operation.

It is difficult to judge how bright the lamp is at the end; even if we are talking about 600lm, this says little about the actual luminous intensity. But we’re talking about a flashlight for very little money, one you can use if you have to look under the engine hood or under the sofa. We had already used other models ourselves, and experience has shown that torches from China do a satisfactory job.
