I cannot have enough of these. Everyone I know got them for Christmas. I stash them everywhere I can. They are soft and light enough to hold in your mouth while doing an emergency repair in the dark like changing a tire which is why I prefer them to aluminum case flashlights. I have owned some of these for over two years now and they still have the original off-brand batteries in them going strong.

Went through hurricane Irma in FL and these were a godsend. Very easy to carry and better light than the larger flashlights. I ordered more. My sister-in-law is considering ordering for her nursing home. There is a small lanyard/tie on them and she would replace with a larger tie so her residents could have them readily available during a storm. Highly recommend.

I live in a small town that has frequent short power outages and I have health issues that make it impossible to walk without falling down if I cant see - loss of proprioception, the important sense that you've probably never heard of. So it is very important that I have flashlights available wherever I am. I bought this set of four about 18 months ago, so I could have them in different parts of the house. Over time I had one fail when I tried to replace the batteries (the battery holder is very poorly made) and one has gone to that invisible corner where small items go to hide when they disappear around a house.The remaining two are still working great.

So I started another search of Amazon for sets of small flashlights and kept coming back to these. The aluminum ones available would be much harder to find and hold on to in the dark and the ones that don't include batteries end up costing more than these do.

Pros:
- inexpensive
- the textured plastic on the outside makes them easy to find in the dark and easy to hold on to
- the colors make them visible when there is light - the black one that wandered off is the only color that is hard to find
- batteries are included so they don't need to be purchased separately
- while the lanyard is too small to put a hand through it works very well for hanging the flashlight on a hook

Cons:
- cheaply enough made that they are pretty much impossible to change the batteries in, so they're basically disposable
- the lanyard is too small to be anything but a way to hang them on a hook

So I'm about to order another set.

My son gave me the yellow one, and I loved it. But then I lost it, so I ordered more. The rubbery outer shell is very nice. They seem poorly made, but are very handy and can be useful. One did not work at all. I will take it to my son and see if he can make it work. At first, none of them worked, but I had put the batteries in backwards. The small metal ring on the edge of the battery compartment came off immediately on all 4 of them. I put it back, but it is not attached so it will come off whenever I change the batteries. They seem very flimsy, especially the little wire springs which press against the batteries, but I like the rubbery outer shell which makes it easy to hold on to. Mine do NOT smell, as some people have noted. The button to operate the flashlight works easily and they give off a decent amount of light. As mentioned by some others the lanyard is very short, so I'm not sure what its purpose is, you can't put it around your wrist, I suppose you could slip it over your finger, in case you risk dropping it, or perhaps you could hang it on a hook and that might be convenient. I cannot say how durable they are yet, since I have not had them more than a few days. I had my first yellow one for several weeks and it worked fine.

Small but mighty. I have never bought LED flashlights before. My old flashlights were worn out. Replacing the batteries helped but they were iffy when tilting downward & would go out without warning. We have water regulations that state we can only water on certain days & times & these often require me to go out at night & move hoses around, turn spigots on & off etc. Plus the garage has lighting issues that require me to use a flashlight to get things from the tool chest & the garden shed has no lights. The problem isn't just the dark, it's the creepy crawlies. We have black widows, brown widows, recluses (spiders not hermits) & it seems we live on a perpetual ant hill. So between all that I had to spring for new flashlights. When these Dorcy 41-4241 arrived I saw how small they were & thought they could never throw off much light. But I was wrong! These are like carrying daylight in my pocket. I can see so clearly at night it is amazing! I can even take my time to finish chores & not have to worry at dusk that I will run out of daylight to wind up the days work. These are small & convenient & fit in my pocket. I can take them out, click them on & finish up what I'm doing without pause. I can see spiders around the faucets, ants on the hoses & avoid walking into the dreaded clingy spider webs that always leave me feeling I have something crawling on me. These powerful little lights come with batteries which is an extra bargain. I don't know how I did without them all these years & now I wouldn't be without them. Absolutely the proof that 'good things come in small packages.'
