A review of the Pelican Recoil 2410 LED Flashlight has been posted over at The Ws Reviews 'The 2410 runs on four AA batteries, and the body has a flat cross-section that makes it very easy to carry despite being larger than its cheaper 2xAA Maglite cousin. Its plastic body comes in black or yellow, and the "PL" version that I have costs a few extra dollars but has the glow-in-the-dark bezel that makes the light easy to find when it's off. I highly recommend it. It's also submersible, pressure-rated to 500 feet, and resists all kinds of chemicals that I wouldn't want to have splashed on me anyway.'

Pop Photo have published a review of seven sets of rechargeable and seven sets of single-use AA batteries. 'We all use them; from camera flashes to television remotes, AA batteries find their way into every home. But just like other energy sources, batteries can be very costly as well. With a wide range of prices from store to store, a bit of comparison shopping may be necessary to find a good deal. Need a 4-pack of alkaline batteries at a tourist trap? Forget about it -- that'll be 10 dollars please.'

The interesting feature of this light is that it has a focusable beam. Focusing is accomplished by extending and retracting the lens of the flashlight. When the lens is fully extended, it is approximately 5.5 inches long.'
