Detailed
Information:
Well, it's silver, and it's a keychain light. 'Nuf
said. No really, there isn't much more to it. It looks
really pretty, I'll give it that much.
The LED is a common lower-end LED which produces a
very bluish tinted light in a fairly nice round spot.
The use of small watch (button cell) batteries results
in fairly low output. The LED is mostly recessed in
a silvered dimple which does catch some of the normally
wasted side light and send it forward.
To operate the light, tighten the keychain attachment
point on the end of the light until it comes on. A little
friction to try to prevent accidental activations is
produced by an o-ring inside the switch area. After
I fixed the swivel that attached the light to the keyring
so that it actually swiveled (there was an extra molded
piece of metal left from the manufacturing process preventing
it from pivoting) I found that the light tends to pivot
on the swivel rather than twist the switch and accidentally
turn on.
If you loosen the switch until it stops and keep twisting,
the rear battery cap is engaged and can be unscrewed
from the body of the light. The three AG3 batteries
can then be easily replaced.
This light really isn't water resistant, but should
withstand splashes.
What I Liked: Pretty
What I Didn't Like: Not water resistant,
Dim
Conclusions: A nice little giveaway
light or pretty keychain fob. I wouldn't rely on this
light as a primary light source, but it makes for a
nice little gift to yourself or others.
