INFRAY H110801

I am a marine mechanic and work in very tight spaces so I go through a few penlights a yearThe Infray is the best I have foundUnfortunately I bought 2 in November and 1 has bad batteriesI cannot find a way to contact the seller through AmazonSo trying hereDear Infray, I purchased 2 of these lights in November, one of them has bad batteries and will only stay on for a few minutesI put a pair of standard alkaline batteries in it and it works fineCan I get a pair of new batteries from you for it please?

I do like it, however the port to plug in to recharge the battery is very difficult to connect to. I believe the issue is with the flashlight plug and not the connection cord as I have another cord with the same connection and it also is a time consuming process. Once connected it works well, with a light that monitors charging status.I wrote the above a day or two ago, and have been “playing” with the recharge connection. Seems like it needs breaking in as now after a few dozen tries it is working much better. Or, maybe it was me that needed breaking in.

This has a good, trim body, which is easy to carry in the pocket. It uses 2 AAA, rechargeable batteries it comes with. It charges by a micro USB port under a sleeve that slides open. There is an LED which blinks when charging, turns solid when finished. A 1 amp charger is adequate to use, but is not supplied with the light.There is a small zoom feature that does help with concentrating the light output, which, unless its a darker area, isn't great at the wide setting. If you want to look at a small area, definitely use the zoom feature. Battery life seems to be pretty good so far. For the price, this is a pretty good. Hoice, but don't its really about 150 lumen, not 250 lumen.

The light is plenty bright, especially considering such a compact form-factor and overall looks to be of very high quality. Judging by the temperature of the light produced, the LED in the flashlight seems to be a genuine Cree LED - I've heard that fake Cree LEDs tend to produce rather bluish light, which is not the case with this flashlight. I've put the rechargeable batteries that came with the flashlight through a discharge-refresh cycle on a intellectual charging device and they ended up having around 1000 mAh capacity, which is even more than the documented 900 mAh. So far the button, which is traditionally a weak spot on this kind of flashlights, has been working flawlessly and produces a nice tactile feedback. Zooming and 2 brightness modes are also very nice things to have (I'm planning to test the run time in both modes). What I also like about the design of this flashlight is batteries being replaceable. I'm yet to test the charging of batteries through the embedded charging device and may update this review later. But so far I love this flashlight and can definitely recommend it to others.

When I first got it in April this year it wasn't what I had hoped for in brightness but after a while I got used to the 2 modes it has. Bright and low with that soft touch to activate it without it staying on unless I pressed it down to make it stay on. I only use this every morning for about 2 and a half hours. Because it's dark early in the wee mornings delivering heavy XL packages for Amazon.Not sure why certain rubber parts started wearing down and then eventually falling off. Once again I only use it for a couple of hours in the morning and it hangs from my lanyard with my Amazon badge. After the sun comes out I take it off my lanyard and put it in my side net pocket on my lunch box. So honestly it never sees heavy duty wear and tear.But last month Sept. the ring rubber that keeps the small door open for the charging port fell off so now that piece you slide up and down revealing the charging port is just loose. Which is no big deal because you can still charge it but it's just the fact that you get use to that rubber ring that's there when you go to push it up.Anyways next to fall off slowly is the rubber piece at the top that activates the 2 mode light preferences. And before it fell off completely I had tried to super glue it so it would not fall off. Well Oct. 14, 2021 that rubber piece fell off and when it's gone it's gone and the flash pen light is now useless! That is the bread and butter of mechanics that make this pen a selling machine. Without that rubber piece it's really trash now.But as you can see in the photo I rigged it so I can still use it because I really don't want to buy another one since I just bought this in March 2021. And I only use it for a couple hours in wee mornings.Anyways do I recommend this product?? No for the price and the durability and not even having it a whole year and it's all ready a sad story in the making. I say find another brand that may have better rubber and glue components that keep that switch working to turn that light off and on.If my rigging it doesn't last long I'll be throwing it in the trash and going with another brand that's similar to this buy but with better quality rubber parts in place!!Thanks for reading and good luck with this purchase...

We always need flashlights for winter when we are walking from the barn to the car, other buildings, etc. It is darker than dark in the country most nights, and it doesn't make sense to have a ton of lights around...just grab a flashlight. This one gives a decent amount of light, especially for the size! We love that it is rechargeable. Who cares if the kiddo leaves it on, just recharge it, and move on. No more loads of batteries in landfills. I also love that the charging port is covered by a metal piece that slides up and down to protect the port. We will definitely drop this a million times on land, so it will last much longer with this. Good flashlight!

Rechargeable batteries died within 1 week of Use.Light still works with reg batteries.
