You might think this microlight is a bit overpriced, but considering that it is rechargeable, it is well worth the expense.
Consider this: The Photon Freedom, also from LRI, costs $13.20 plus shipping. For $10 more, you get a microlight that has 3 more LEDs, and that can charge up to 500 times from almost any common household battery: AA, AAA, C, D, etc. So rather than spending money buying the annoying button cells such as the 2032's and 2016's, you can simply hook up this little Photon Rex and have it charged in about 3 hours.
**According to the package, charging the REX using a D-cell battery costs 6 cents per charge!**
Pros:
-Has 4 LEDs instead of 1, thus it is MUCH brighter than traditional keychain lights/microlights. It outperforms my other Photon light as well as my Streamlight NANO and my INOVA microlight.
-It comes equpped with FREEDOM technology. For those not familiar with this, it means that you can press down on the on/off button and hold it down, and it will gradually brighten up or dim itself to your desired level of brightness. It will blink when the maximum brightness is achieved. If you keep holding the button down past the blink, you will the progress to the equipped SOS, slow beacon, and strobe modes.
-It has two magnetic poles on the back, to which you easily attach the charger. Instructions are very simple to follow, and the charger works with almost any common household battery.
-It has a strong keychain clip that will secure your light without fear of losing it.
-It can be recharged 500 times.
-The button glows in the dark, making it easy to find.CONs:
-The button is a bit hard to press down on, but you can easily get used to it.
-Since it has 4 LEDs, it is a bit bigger than the other Photon lights and other traditional microlights. This is not really a problem to me, but if you're interested in a tiny light, you might want to consider a different microlight. The Photon Freedom is a good option.
-You will need a battery that has magnetic positive and negative poles to hook up the charger. If the poles are not magnetic, you will have to find another battery. Overall this is a wonderful little light. Despite its minor flaws I still gave it 5 stars because of its functionality, rechargeability, easy of use, and brightness (it's VERY bright for its size, it easily blows away those cheap multiple LEDs flashlights, and it sure blows away most other microlights!)

By simply engaging the included recharger to any common battery, the light recharges and signals that itis recharging until the blinking stops and the light is fully charged.
