I love these little guys!



These things are just great - bright, cheap, small and light. Also handy when you're off camping with people who forgot to bring any torches - it doesn't matter if they get lost or broken (can you break these?) I have these strewn through my various bags, cars, mansions and private jets, and they come in handy all the time.

I have ten or twenty of these floating around at the moment, so I should probably try something photographic with them.

Oh, no, no, no, one is clearly slightly oval, instead of circular!

The UER ones were really nice and bright. I lost mine but I think I will pick these up, just because its less then $5!

this summer I bought 10x 10mm white LED keykings, 10x green, 10x blue and 10x red, and they've come in handy countless times. I didnt need so many TBH, but they're cheap as hell and I just bundled em all together with a few flashlights to save $$$

I was amusing myself in an underground carpark yesterday, and came across an unlocked door marked "confined space, blah blah", so of course I poked my head in. Completely dark, but I happened to have one of those lights on my keyring - more than adequate, and the urbex0ring contined unhindered!

My friend suggested a small light at a corner store by his place. Looks like a mini light, complete with dodgy construction. It was $1.50 but I wish I got more. Its so damn bright. It takes watch batteries and is better then the lights recommend above because it gives off more light then my 30 lumen headlamp.



...but the clicky is in the rear end. Also mine doesn't look this good.

Lights are getting much better!

I know what you mean! Little keyring lights just blow away the kind of full-size stuff you could buy only a few years ago. I am very glad to have my Preon back on my keyring
