Pros: tough, works every time
Cons: can hurt tv or magnetic media.

I have had this light for three months now and I will say that I love it. Tough as nails, reliable, bright, nice to have around.

The only thing I have noticed is that the magnet in the handle is VERY strong. I found this out when I set the flashlight down on top of my television one evening. I thought that the picture tube was going bad. Everything was trippy psychadelic pink and chartreuse. The next day the tv was fine. I didn't realize then that I had moved the flashlight. Speaking to a tech friend of mine I found out that you can permanently screw up a tv tube with a magnet this strong. So just beware. Keep it away from tv's and monitors. I also suspect that this sucker may be strong enough to erase video and audio tape, or even wipe a credit card strip, though I haven't had the desire to try it out.
