It's small, lightweight, unobtrusive...and yet it's durable, great MUI (mechanical user interface), and packs a ton of light!
The only tricky thing about it is when I lend it to someone who's never seen it before they need to be told how to turn it on, but other than its non-conventional switch it performs as well or better than anything comparable. The reason it requires twisting the top to turn it on/off is because it is designed to withstand pressures of several atmospheres, as I understand it.
This flashlight (three LEDs) gives a nice spread of light with no defined boundaries as to where the beam is and where it isn't...so it's beam pattern is not designed to perform as a spotlight, however with 6 volts of electricity this thing can light up distant objects very well for its size.
It's energy efficiency is unbeatable at this price. I can take "dead" AAA batteries and not only will this thing work but I can't really notice the difference in brightness. So yes, if you take four fresh AAA cells you can turn this thing on and leave it for days going at full operating capacity!
I've dropped mine several times onto tile, pavement, and concrete, bumps that make me cringe and I wouldn't want to intentionally inflict, but this thing kept on chugging. My first one (black color btw) finally succumed to being lost in the ocean surf at night =( Right now I'm enjoying the second one I've ever owned and this time I tried the olive color exterior.
Actually one other thing, the clip is pretty fragile, that broke off within a week or two after I got it, but I actually didn't mind because it was more in the way than anything else...with just a clip-stump the flashlight can be held in your mouth really well so you can work on something with two hands.
