Never purchased Duracell flashlight, only Duracell batteries, which I think are the best. Both of these in the pack are lighter than expected, but are fair good quality so far of observing. I like the rubberized material there made out of, so dropping them is no big deal.Only Issue is the bigger 100 lumen light keeps turning off after about 15 seconds and you have to keep turning it back on just to turn off again. So, took out the batteries, which were slightly warm and replaced them with some other Duracell batteries, and these AA batteries are made in Belgium and were ordered from Amazon warehouse.All 4 batteries included say , "Not for Retail Sale" made in china, though only had problem with the one flashlight, so far. The only difference in the included batteries are (One set of the two has Duracell stamped on the Negative end) and these were slightly warm.Replacing with other Duracell batteries, the light doesn't turn off after less than a minute.After reviewing this Duracell flashlight combo pack earlier and believing the new batteries solved the issue with the larger (100 Lumen) light only, the flashlight started once again turning off after just 10 or 15 seconds.UPDATE, THEY STOP WORKING EVEN WITH NEW BATTERIES. THEY R ALL DEFECTIVE. DO NOT BUY THEM !!I made THE biggest mistake, I didn’t read the reviews. Trusting the brand I purchased these flashlights without reading the reviews. Just as others have mentioned, the darned things last 10 seconds turned on, max. Living in an area where the probability of loosing power after a hurricane is high, we need good flashlights, not ones that will turn off after a few seconds.Too bad the package they came in has been destroyed or I’d return them. It’s a shame we can no longer trust the DURACELL brandIt’s duracel, didn’t feel like I should read reviews before buying this brand. Should have!!!A damn shame a product can be sold like this. Both the flashlights only stay on for 5 seconds. No clue what task this would be useful for. I’ve dealt with it as long as I can. Wish they would at least take this trash back and recycle it. DO NOT BUY!!!I should of read the reviews. Nowhere on the description does it warn you of random shut offs. You do have to click twice to resume. Whats the point? It's not on long enough to do any kind of inspection. Your left in the dark complaining.Piece of crap. Used it three times and it kept flashing off until it died all together. Completely unreliable. Bought it for use in anticipation of hurricane season. It didn't make it that far.Ruberized grip gives secure grip. Easy to turn on and off.Not very durable and the batteries died within 2mo of almost use.The small one broke within 2 weeks.Hard pass on this, look else where
