SLUGHAUS flashlight review
Hi my name's Jon and I am a torch addict and whilst the temptation to get something bigger & brighter with better battery life that can cast shadow puppets on low cloud is incredibly strong. Well the thing is, sometimes you just want to rummage in a bag or find your boots after dark for that midnight call of nature. So you don't need anything super bright like a nuclear blast. Small keyring torches are of course by no means a new idea but are invariably cheaply constructed plastic tat that fails completely the moment it gets wet. Handy items but not survival reliable, then the Slughaus arrived on the scene.
Weighing in at about 5grams and measuring 10.5 x 33mm it's about as small as you can practically get a flashlight and a true Kickstarter success story. Has an aluminium body making it crush resistant and the must have feature for me, it's water proof! Short of whacking it with an axe it's bulletproof. Reasonably good lumen output for such a small package, bright enough to see where you are putting your feet and then some without illuminating the entire camp.
Definitely a must have for the EDC keyring or survival tin and loving my little slug.
Thankyou Tony, it's a great little torch
