What do you make of these?  I keep getting ads all over for these:

 

G700..X800... flashlights, others...Most are between $30-$60 depending on number purchased.

 

Are they worth it?

Buy one and tell us

I have had the X800 for about three months now, and here are the plus and minus as I see it

 

Plus is it is a very bright lite and in the zoom mode it is almost laser like. Also I have not had to recharge the battery since I got it and I use it every night and morning to walk the dog, about a 1/2 hr every day.

 

Minus is it is not waterproof, listed as water resistant. Also it has 5 settings, high, med, low, a very fast pulse and an SOS pattern, in that order, so to go from med to high you have to go through all the other modes.

 

Hope that helps.

Aside from being super bright, what makes it " military "

They're black and therefore evil.

I get these popups too, and other places. Claim to be worlds' best things since the wheel, "75 % OFF RETAIL!!!"    and yet to find out the cost you have to sign in and give them your info. It's that kind of advertising that makes me upset, it's just deceitful. As to the pricing itself, they say "75 % what, a nice big number!" Oh, but wait, buy two and SAVE!!  Buy and handful and SAVE EVEN MORE!!! Come on, they think  we really are THAT big a sucker?

 

My 3 and 4 cell Maglites have been doing just fine, thank you,,,,,,,,and the liitle ones, 2aa, 2aaa, even the wimpy little keychain one, a single aaa battery job, work pretty darn good.

 

And there are plenty of flashlights that police officers use, more expensive than the Maglites perhaps, but the cops seem happy with them. 

For cheaper hand helds I've been very happy with my foursevens lights

i'm perfectly happy with my streamlights that i have at the shop. i've got 2 there that i've been using for 6 years with ZERO problems. i have one in my truck, and i have one at home. then there's the head mounted lights i use too. and the spare smaller lights. and the bar lights.
