Review by MYFRIENDKRAMER@yahoo.com for 10 X LED MINI MICRO BLACK KEYCHAIN KEY RING SUPER FLASH BRIGHT FLASHLIGHT WHITE LIGHT
Rating:
I ordered the 10-pack of these in the Clear version. They came EXTREMELY FAST (ordered FRI., arrived MON!!) which is even MORE amazing considering the shipping was FREE, AND they came from Florida (I’m in CT!).
They are AMAZINGLY BRIGHT (You can EASILY see the ground CLEARLY when walking at night, so they’d be MORE than enough for looking for a keyhole in a door, or whatever “up-close” needs you may come across). My expectations were low [given that the price was so low (10 for $10.95...I bought at their website...they're cheaper there than through Amazon)] but all 11 (yes, 11, there was an extra one in the envelope [outside of the 10 that were enclosed in bubble wrap]) work perfectly.
These are very small, which is a good thing, perfect for the keychain [about 1 1/2" long by 1" wide (not including the metal key-ring which is itself about 1" in diameter)]. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED PRODUCT.

Review by A. Mandeville for 10 X LED MINI MICRO BLACK KEYCHAIN KEY RING SUPER FLASH BRIGHT FLASHLIGHT WHITE LIGHT

bought this multi pack for gifts for stocking stuffers…my wife and I have LRI PWK Photon II LED Keychain Micro-Light, White Beam and wanted to give some as gifts…I saw how inexspensive these were and thought what the heck for the price I can’t lose right…well I was really suprised they were great. I will say the beam shines just as bright as my Photon but sends a more concentrated beam with less fill light on the sides. (did I mention that even though we bought them for gifts we kept a couple for the spare key rings…thats how good they were we could not bare to give’em all away…)
another note this light has a bit of a bluish zenon look to it even thought they are the white bulb. But we really did not mind as it helps you keep your night vision while you find what you dropped or open you door or whatever.

Review by Sam for 10 X LED MINI MICRO BLACK KEYCHAIN KEY RING SUPER FLASH BRIGHT FLASHLIGHT WHITE LIGHT
Rating:
Excellent pricing! Shipped fast and via USPS, ordered Thursday, got it Monday.
1 of the 10 flashlights is very dim and essentially defective.
However, that’s fine, I did not expect 100% to work for this very
low price and type of product.
You get 10 flashlights w/ batteries installed.
Press and hold to turn on light, or slide the locking switch to
keep light on. Bright light.
Everything about product is as expected. Can’t go wrong.
Update: the price has gone up 6x compared to when I purchased
the product, so the above review is based on the original super-low
price. Not that great of a deal now, though the product and
shipping were good.

Review by M. Gozum for 10 X LED MINI MICRO BLACK KEYCHAIN KEY RING SUPER FLASH BRIGHT FLASHLIGHT WHITE LIGHT

I’ve owned a Photon light for almost 10 years and the batteries were dying. Replacing batteries cost about 30c to $1 per battery, depending on bulk purchasing.
This product, including the light itself, cost as much as replacing the battery towards the high side.
However, this clone is far superior to the original product is these ways:
The build quality is identical
The on/off switch and lock mechanism actuate easier and far more secure feeling
The case is sealed with screws versus snap on cover on the Photon, which alas, seems to get damaged each time you open it
The photon contact seems to need cleaning every few years, so time will tell with this clone
I paid $10 for a Photon back when. Bright LEDs are all the rage this past 5 years, and you see them now competing against CFL in desk lamps or even home lights.
There are other variants of this keychain light not copying the Photon, so should these folks get some legal troubles, there are alternatives at this price. So before this happens, snap up these clones!

Review by yogiyoda for 10 X LED MINI MICRO BLACK KEYCHAIN KEY RING SUPER FLASH BRIGHT FLASHLIGHT WHITE LIGHT
Rating:
These lights have about half the brightness of the Photon II. They have a blueish color that is less warm than Photon II. They have shiny silver screws heads showing on the bottom which makes them look cheaper. They also feel cheaper. As the photo shows, they do not have the Photon II’s very useful mini-clip for easy clip-on to key chains etc.
That being said, they are much less expensive per light. If you are aware of the limitations, it still may be a good purchase. I would have given this item three stars if it wasn’t for all the other five star reviews. I bought this item based on the rave reviews, thinking I was getting Photon II equivalents at much lower price. That it not the case. You get what you pay for, not more. Buy only if the lower quality meets your needs.
