What makes this better than a flashlight?

it is designed for general illumination rather than specific spotting like a flashlight--also, the batteries last a looong time.

It gives off light from all sides like a lantern and has a hook to hang it from your tent or above a table. It also works well standing on a table top. It has a piece that can slide up to channel the light ahead but it's less directed than a flaccidity would be. It's better for lighting up rooms and tents and picnic tables then a flashlight, and not as good at channeling a focused beam as a flashlight. Hope that helped.

There is a retractable reflector hood in the back that, when down, will shine light in 360 degrees, when up light will shine in about 180 degrees. It's just a very small (packable) lantern.

It stands alone like a lantern, and the light shines from all sides, very brightly.

Yeah but better. It has an adjustable depth base and quick release that is nice. I think it might have a light . I haven't used it in a while.

I believe there is a tiny rubber "plug" on the body of the flashlight that you plug into....I gave it away as a gift awhile ago so I can't be sure.

I have both flashlights and both are really good lights. I actually use the mag light though while working. The other is in my car as a back up.

This doesn't come with a light bulb because it is all LED state of art flashlight. Light bulbs in flashlights are a thing of the past.

I'd recommend the Nitecore website for lumens, but I can tell you that this is the brightest battery powered flashlight I've ever seen. It's amazingly bright.

Well I can't compare but I have the MetroFlash and I am very pleased with it. It is very bright and as far as I am concerned the battery lasts a reasonable length of time.

The flashlight uses only 1 battery at a time! Battery life is good with this light! But its nice to have that extra battery i case you have need to use light for an extented period of time! Enjoy!!

The Stanley spotlights are terrible for battery life. If u don't NEED A battery powered light, don't get it. Get one with a chord.

I purchased two of these flashlights as Christmas gifts to my friends so I don't really know much about it's performance. Sorry I could not be of much help.

hi there, I bought 2 of these. Works very good, plenty of power for most jobs. As you can see in the left of the primary image, is the LED thing, in which you slide the battery. So you have to either use the drill, or the flashlight(if you have 1 battery). Personally not very impressed with the flashlight, not powerful at all. Recently bought a camp lamp(with 57 leds), from ebay for about 7-8$, it takes 3pc of AAA, and it works better, it is lighter, and you can hang it like a regular hanger. So don't rely on the flashlight..But the drill is awesome ! Got it for a deal here, was around 65$ with free standard shipping. hi there, I bought 2 of these.

The smaller spotlight is not very bright, about the same as a small flashlight. I only use it with the red lense cap for finding filters, etc in the dark. The main spotlight is very powerful and is comprised of many leds. It projects several hundred feet.

Put it this way, in my opinion, there is NOT a better flashlight out there. Hope that helped.

Wish i could answer that question; but the flashlight was stolen from my tool pouch in about a week. It is a pretty wicked light!
