There is still a market for flashlights? Every phone has one.

1) those lights are shitty 2) it's dumb to rely on your phone battery for light 3) flashlights are more durable than cell phones 4) some jobs don't allow you to have your cell on you at all times |

I and many coworkers were given free Redline flashlights at work. They all fell apart or stopped working within 90 days. The stupid red plastic ring at the lens end breaks very easily. |

I have had mine for almost a year and it still works great. I don't use it every day but I use it more than once a week.

This was a few years ago. 2012-2013 I think. Maybe they have the quality control figured out now. But it was enough for me to not consider them ever again. |

My flashlight will strobe at 1100 lumens for a few hours as a safety feature. |
