MINI-REVIEW
(short, quick, and to the point)

Cutest frikkin' light I've ever seen! Press on the momentary switch on the head and the nostrils of the piggy light up! I have a coworker named Mary Lou who loves pigs and would just go bonkers over this one! (Hi, Mary Lou!)

Body: The body is made of metal and is fairly substantial.

Bezel: The LEDs are tucked behind the nostrils. So not only does it light your way, but it's really cute, too.

Output description: Bluish-tinted wide flood of light.


Beam at one meter at target center

Runtime Plot: A runtime plot will not be completed for this light.

Switch: Press the little silver momentary-only switch on the head to turn the light on. Hold as long as you need light.

Seals: None

Ergonomics: Using the switch is no problem. It has a little weight to it.


Size compared to a common 2AA aluminum light

Batteries: Three AG-13 coin cells power the light. Remove the screw under the top, remove the top, drop out and replace the cells. Be careful of the itty-bitty wire inside that connects the two halves electrically.

Accessories: Keychain attached.
