LED LENSER 880014 P5R Rechargeable LED Flashlight

I bought this for a law enforcement duty backup on the recommendation of a co-worker. I wanted something small, discrete, lightweight, no sharp edges to snag clothes, LED, and easily rechargeable. I fashioned a pocket clip from an old Surefire flashlight I had and can carry this in my front slash hand pocket with ease. I place it on the recharger after every shift so it's fully charged for the next day. It's very bright and the front bezel slides in/out for a broad or narrow beam. Manipulating the rear on/off button can be a tiny bit tricky one-handed if you want to double-click for strobe, or hold in for a dim setting. That said though, it's still a great backup to carry that doesn't take up much space, doesn't have to go into a belt holster, and is very bright for use. The charging dock for it works great on a desktop or in a locker, and can be plugged into a standard 12v charger in a vehicle. A bonus of that is that I can take it on vacation with me and plug it in our popup camper to make sure it stays charged at night. The only complaint I have with it is the wrist lanyard. The part of the lanyard that attaches to the light itself is a very narrow band and mine broke after a couple of months of use. It started to fray and once that began, there was no going back. One day it just gave up the ghost and went in the garbage. That's not a life-ender however. This is a great flashlight, is very very bright, very small, and easy to carry. I'd recommend it.

Great light. Small and bright. The button is a little tough to push but still like it.

This is just the very best flashlight I've ever owned. It is so bright that sometimes I have to use the lower setting to use it. The other night I was across the highway, (A four lane highway with a truning lane in the center,) from a lighted car lot. I was showing my friend my little flashlight. I shined the light on the cars across the highway and the lights on the cars reflected my flashlight like their lights were on! My friend said that I'd better quit shining my light across the highway or I'd get in trouble for shining lights on cars going by. Durning the day I can shine it on lighted florescent lights, lighted walls and lamps and I can see the circle of light from my flashlight. It's just so bright it's amazing it is so small and light. The only trouble I've had is learing how to use the on/off switch. It takes practice to get the lower light level and the flashing mode turned on. Once learned it's not a problem to operate at all. Charges easily but I've yet to have the battery go dead. I charge it every two weeks just in case.

very convenient and compact flashlight. shines well. one problem. after a couple of seconds of glowing the flashlight starts to blink. signals something or is it a defect. helps for a short time turning off. and sometimes just turns off, although the battery is fully charged.

This is the finest flashlight I'v ever known, It can clip to the bill of a ball-cap, shine out and light up eyes up to 250 yards! It can light up an entire gym. I recomend an extra battery and a car charger if you'll be using it for service work as I do. I dont recomend it for your primary long term light sorce due to battery life on high beam. But I use mine every day. It has the power to shine past a daylit surface into pitch black, It is literally 10 times brighter than my 4 D-cell mag-lite. It will however die instantly and leave you stranded so carry a slow burn-out AA back-up use and/or changing batteries but it's re-chargable, and a great gift for a serviceman or "man of the house". Find a retail outlet to find the perfect LED LENSOR light for you. You'll pay more but get a lifetime warrenty and learn a little somethin' while your there. I bought a replacement here because I gave mine to a cowboy, huntin' buddy farmer who hates the city and the internet (except their "women and gadgets")
