The Gadgeteer: Brando One Battery 8 Led Flashlight/Torch
Larry Bank reviews the Brando One Battery Torch for The-Gadgeteer.com and remarks favorably on the features of this little device. 'I was browsing the Gadget Brando site and saw the “One Battery Torch”. The original product photo and description weren’t clear that the battery was a type AA (many small LED lights use expensive lithium batteries). I like to find products which use AA batteries because I get my wife’s discards (she’s a photographer); when her high powered photo flash takes too long to cycle, she needs to replace the batteries. These used AA’s still have plenty of life for other uses.
I ordered the flashlight and received it in the mail 10 days later. My first reaction to using the light was that it felt very solid and was a very well designed product. To turn the light on, the head is twisted clockwise. I prefer having a click on/off switch for single-handed operation, but considering the size of the light, the twist switch is a necessary feature to keep the size down.' I should add the screw on/off feature does take a little getting used to but overall this type of flashlight is not much different from those with the "clickie" switches.
