 Extremely bright, use my own AAA's, pocketable April 12, 2008

I've been using this light now for about ten days, and I'm consistently shocked by the brightness of the beam. In case you don't know, this light boasts 6 watts and 120 lumens. It is my understanding that lumen output is tough to rate for a flashlight, so I can only go by what I see. I own many different types of flashlights for different purposes ranging from a 2 million candlepower spotlight to a 3 watt Brinkman tactical light. I also own several different Maglight flashlights of varying sizes. This Dorcy light is the brightest pocketable light I currently own and it's even brighter than most of the large, non-pocketable lights I own. I've dropped it twice this week, so it's proven to be durable. It uses standard or rechargeable "AAA" batteries, and it is extremely bright. I do agree with the other reviewer that commented that the battery life indicator is a silly gimmick that gives the flashlight a cheaper appearance, but I don't think it's that bad. Another comment in the reviews made the assumption that a 6 watt LED will suck the batteries dry. I would have also made that same assumption, but so far the battery life seems fine. I always carry spare batteries, just in case, but in the past 10 days of moderate usage I haven't used my replacements yet. The beam is still more than twice as bright as any of the other lights I own. I'm very happy with this flashlight and I plan to buy another one for my camping pack.

Extremely bright LED flashlight. Well defined central beam. I work as an Aircraft Inspector and this has become my primary light. AAA batteries rather than expensive lithiums make it cost effective to operate.
Dorcy 6 Watt 3AAA K2 LED Flashlight September 6, 2008

I need to use a flashlight every time I am at work and often while enjoying activities. I am a bit of a flashlight junkie. I own flashlights that cost 10x more than this, but I am surprised to find it the brightest. I have found Dorcy flashlights to be durable, functional, and value priced. This appears to be no exception. The use of 'AAA' batteries is a plus for a flashlight that sees regular use.
GREAT LITTLE FLASHLIGHT! November 4, 2008

I received this flashlight as a gift. I used it this past Halloween while escorting my kids around the neighborhood from door-to-door. 3 hours of continuous use later, the flashlight was still shining brightly on the same set of Energizer AAA batteries, which was surprising to me. I expected this flashlight to eat batteries, but it was actually more efficient than typical bulb flashlights producing significantly less lumens. I am so impressed with this flashlight that I'm going to purchase one to keep in the car and another for my brother.
