Excellent Flashlight For the Car


This is definitely one of the cooler flashlights I have seen.  The flashlight aspect is very bright without a lot of spread.  I got decent visibility even at 100 feet distance.  Within 10 feet it was very bright.   The lantern aspect also worked very well.   I was impressed with that as well.   The flashing red led’s are excellent for a road side situation or to signal distress.  The magnet on the base will hold the flashlight to a metal surface but only in the vertical position.  I tried a variety of metal surfaces, stove, fridge, car fender and the magnet is not strong enough to hold the flash horizontally despite their photo showing it horizontal on a car.   I don’t feel that is a drawback to the light.  It would be a nice additional feature but not necessary.   This flashlight will replace the current light in my car’s glove compartment. (does anyone actually keep gloves in there?)  I recommend it.  I received this light for free and was asked to do an honest review, frankly I always write what I think but it doesn’t hurt to point out that fact.   Despite being free, I really like the flashlight.

If reviewing a product, it may have been received free of charge. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
