NF-05 3W 30-Lumen LED Flashlight with Clip (1*AA)

Pros: Awsome price- i dare you to find anything cheaper than this light. A solid flashlight for general use only and very handy with the clip. Uses AA battery which is common and very easy to find.

Cons: The light is for general use only because its very weak but it will do the trick. The reflector and the plastic lens do effect the light but for 3.35$ its awsome.

Other: Is there anything to think about with this price? I think just the metal of the light is made of is more expensive than the whole flashlight itself. buy it

Pros: This is very useful general-duty light. For the price, it's hard to complain about any feature of this light. It has a sturdy aluminum housing, with a clicky switch and pocket clip. LED light output is acceptable.

Cons: The light output is almost identical to the more expensive C-02 Cree P4 LED Flashlight (SKU-05949), only this light is blue. I prefer a white light to the blue, but that's just me. The pocket clip actually makes this easier to hold. Mine came with a loose pocket clip, and I had to reverse the screws in order to get it to hold tight.

Other: Durable, inexpensive blue LED (blue) light with adequate light output.

Pros: -Solid construction -O ring in the back section -Sturdy clip -Doesn't come with any markings like "Police" other than the NF-05 on the head -Looks like a tactical light compared to the other low cost flashlights on DX -Takes AA batteries which are available anywhere you travel -Won't feel bad if lost or stolen because of the price

Cons: -Doesn't tailstand -No O ring in the front section -Spring for battery rattles in the tail when shaken -No lanyard or attachment for one unless you somehow hook it to the clip -Came with scratches on the plastic lens that affects the quality of the beamshot -No multi modes but to be expected for the price

Other: It doesn't feel as solid in my hands like my more expensive flashlights but for the price it can't be beat. Great for EDC. I will order more as spares and gifts.

Pros: This light is filthy stinking cheap. Its so cheap Im stashing them everywhere even though they are kind of mediocre in quality. They're pretty dang bright and worth every penny. It outputs way more light than my Pentagon MOLLE light and I wont feel bad if I lose it or give it away.

Cons: I ordered two of these lights, and both lights emitted a blue/purple color. Definitely not white. Not even off white. The build quality is pretty poopy, one didn't work out of the box but I was able to trace the problem back to the pocket clip screws. Since I was planning on removing the pocket clip from one of the lights anyways it worked out and I didn't bother to get it replaced. I also had both of the orings on one light desintegrate when disassembled the light to lubricate the threads and put in a fresh battery.

Other: It's blue, Its cheap, it works so who cares? If you want a throw away light, get one of these and don't look back. Heck get one for your glove box, your brief case, your jacket, your office, and your first aid kit. Just make sure they work before you put them away.

Pros: This is the second one of these lights I bought as gifts for nephews. Build quality is surprisingly good (except for the clip), especially for this price. The light has a nice, sturdy feel.

Cons: The clip is screwed on so badly it is almost useless. I removed it from both lights. Afterwards close the holes, or the light will not be water tight any more. The original O-rings broke easily, but that is no problem. Replace them with sku.5736, it also gives a nice color accent.

Other: Nice lights, perfect as gifts.

Pros: - can take 1 AA battery which is very common to buy - very bright for it's size - casing is made of aluminium and not cheap plastic - switch is water proof (it's covered with rubber), or so it seems, and seems durable - so small you can carry it anywhere

Cons: - Unlike in the photo shown, the light given is rather bluish white. Since it's low price and the battery it takes, i don't care that much. - the beam of light isn't a uniform circle of light as seen in the picture, but rather a small spot with a faint spot around it. If interested, I'll upload a video and compare it to another one i use for my bike.

Other: Great as an emergency light since it's so small, very efficient and takes ONLY 1 AA battery. Usually most LED bulbs take 3 AAA batteries making them a bit more difficult to find a spare battery when in need.

Pros: It works ! Build quality is ok for the price .

Cons: Performance with a AA is next to useless , your far better of with a Cree AAA than this light . Possibly the worst AA light I have ever seen .

Other: If you plan on running AA , chose another light , if you have some 14500's then this light starts to make some sense , good run time , decent output . On a single AA the output is very low ... I dont know how long it will last on 14500's , but your money can be better spent .

Pros: I does actually produce some light.
Pretty good runtime form a single AA, I suppose. Not that you'll want to use it for that amount of time.

Cons: The light is yellow and the beam isn't at all focused very well.
It isn't very bright at all.
The build quality is very bad. It won't stand up to any abuse, edges are sharp and the reflector looked like it had been melted on the edge a little bit.
i don't think it's really a Cree emitter, it just looks like a cheap, large LED on a driver puck.

Other: Don't waste your $3 on this flashlight. Get a decent Cree AA or AAA flashlight instead.

Pros: -Small -Aluminum casing -Fairly solid build quality -The glow in the dark end switch caps do fit in this, but you have to essentially just pull the old cap off, you do not open it and take it apart like other lights.

Cons: -the O-ring seals get smushed, It's not a very good design becuase even the orange replacement ones here on DX get smushed and ripped to shreds when you put the light back together. The tolerance is too tight where the o-ring should fit. -the light is MOST definately a blueish hue.. Not yellow.. It is a white light but it crosses over into the blue spectrum.. It's not like a Blue led, but definately more blue hue then other LED flashlights. -The clicker on the back is a little finicky, it always works, but sometimes you feel a 'smaller' click just before the bigger click and the light flickers on when this smaller click happens. Just a cheap switch is all.

Other: It's a cute little 'clone' of the more expensive quality lights on here.. It will work great for anyone who would like a small aluminum light in their bag or car that runs off a single common battery. It will light u things, but its definately not the most powerful light. And It's kinda blueish tint is a bit awkward but i like it. It's kind of cool :) It's handy to have around.. And for this price its very affordable.. Stocking stuffers, or just buy 4 or 5 and stash em around the house for when you have a power outage.

Pros: Cheap! Uses AA's. Bought 3 to make em under $3 each. They seem to be pretty sturdy. Quite bright for the price, not mindblowing but very useful around the house and car. Work great with nimh and nicd, I got a pack of sku 19463 and the runtime is great! (haven't actually timed it though)

Cons: Clip screws are tight and solid going into the lights body but the holes drilled into the clip itself are too big and casuses the clip to be a little loose.
Led's focus and color are different between the 3, more on that below.

Other: Overall a good buy. Keep in mind these are cheap and small so their not going to compare to any of the newer high powered leds, I'd recommned sku 13442 as a starter for that then work your way up to a p7 or mc-e. If you want something compact, cheap and bright enough to be useful, then this a the best budget light i've found so far! I'd recommend these over the 9 led lights that are very popular on this site.
