this is really bright. waterproof. floats.

1st click = solar power

2nd click = backup batteries (uses 3 or 4 depending how bright u want)

solar & backup are same brightness

also works with backup removed

it has a string to hang it up

The only thing is this is a little too big & heavy for backpacking but if its bear or mountain lion wilderness I might still bring it because its bright. For caving I want the crank/solar combo.

the lifetime warranty doesn't cover the rechargeable battery so i'll see how long it lasts

if you're not 2 lazy copy the name into google images to get link to youtube comment reviews

1ST CLICK = ON, 2ND CLICK = OFF

We were going to go camping and I wanted a flashlight that we wouldn't need to carry extra batteries around for. So I got this and left it in the window for a few days and on saturday night i needed to...... "do some business" in the middle of the night and this thing REALLY lit my way. You can deffinatley tell it is 120 lumens it out did my dads 2d battery powered maglight. I love Love LOVE it totally worth the 25 dollars.

It is water proof up to 80 feet.

Has 3 not 2 back up button cell batteries.

It can also charge low light I went for a walk it was thick overcast raining and 7:30 just barley had enough light to make it back to the camp site and it was still charging the whole time.

In other words if you need a totally reliable really bright flashlight and dont want to carry around extra batteries this is the best way to go and is worth the investment.

UPDATE: During the 110 degrees summer heat I left it in the window and made the mistake of pushing the rubber switch. It cracked, I am a little concerned about the waterproof-ness of the now so I just put a piece of duck tape over the button.

So just remember after it gets hot do not use it until it has cooled down a bit.

I've been very pleased with this flashlight-it's surprisingly bright, the solar charge can be used for hours at a time, and it seems to be pretty durable.

A few notes:

--Sunlight seems to charge it more efficiently than artificial lighting, so I keep it by a window.

--If you buy it, make sure you know what the different colored lights signify (red for charging, orange for solar, green for battery).

--The smaller version is good, but it's not nearly as bright as this one (though still a great flashlight).

Honest reviews on Hybrid Solar LED Flashlight with Battery Backup 120 Lumens Black

Flashlight was delightful to receive and is quite sizable....light is bright too. However, it isn't working properly and after contacting the vendor, I was referred to Amazon in the case I wanted to return it. The flashlight charges via the solar panel, but not the battery back-up from what I can tell. (There was a problem installing the fourth battery...something was in the way). Rather than go through the hassle of returning it, I'll keep it because it does work.

much brighter than i expected. i estimate the charge lasted about 6 hours. the lanyard is cheap, but otherwise the flashlight seems well made and durable.
