Lowball for this instance's standards, but I was gifted this mini Maglite six months ago and I've now got the bug. SO useful and I'm always the weirdly prepared guy now. (lemmy.world)

They were impressively bright for a light that size in those days. The trouble with mine is it became so unreliable it was useless (flaky contacts or switch, cleaning didn't help). I gave it to a collector who immediately recognized it as an unusual variant and was delighted, so it still made someone happy. I guess that is a win.
