I picked mine up at Freddy's too. Time will tell about how robust it is. Mine has been banging around in my coat pocket since I got it. It has a rubbery grip to it and fits well in my hand without that cheap "Made in China" feel (although that's where it's made). The three LEDs really put out a good light. I come home to a dark house every evening and have been impressed by the intensity of light it has - even up to 25 or 30 feet. I do wonder how weather proof it will turn out to be. I moved back to "sunny" northwest Oregon several years ago (I really gotta change my user profile) and need something that will hold up in inclement weather.

I'm going to add a strip of velcro to the flat surface on top to be able to use with a headband or hat as a hands-free application.
