Review: nostalgic or novelty and sturdy and handy - Given the size, the plastic feel might seem flimsy compared to other similarly sized 2x AA flashlights. However, next to my original MX991 model, the feel of the plastic is very similar for my version. The switch is no rivetted in, but held with screws and may be more serviceable down the line. The original equipped bulbs are good. Consider an upgrade of a Dorcy 3 volt LED bulb makes it far better. It may not have much of a reflector to deliver a more uniformed cone of light, but it delivers a usable hot spot and a very usable perimeter wash of light.
Review: Great Price - Better With An LED Bulb! - Had thought of ordering the full-sized (D-cell) version, but saw this, and found out it uses a standard PR6 incandescent (same as the D-cell version). Since I had a spare Dorcy 41-1643 LED replacement for the PR6, I decided to take a chance. Decent little flashlight, just as it came, though I don't expect the AA batteries would last long with the incandescent bulb. Though I wondered if LED would pair well with the reflector focal length, they work beautifully, together. Focused, bright white light. Can't speak to durability, yet, but it seems well made. Very happy.

### ⭐ TERRIBLE. Made of weak garbage plastic, emits extremely dim light.
*by A***M on October 21, 2025*

TERRIBLE. Made of weak garbage plastic, emits extremely dim light. I promise any basic cell phone light is at least 50 times brighter than this.
