So after having this for a while now and trying to roll it into my daily carry, I have to say it sucks.
It works great as a flashlight. It works great at recharging the battery. It works great at being tiny. It works great at twisting to switch modes.
I WISHED it was great to carry.
It does NOT work great at being turned off.
I have to turn it far enough that the head wobbles and either turns the light into a strobing nuisance OR the head just falls off.
I have bought a few different flashlights from Massdrop and this one is up close to the top for great in theory horrible in reality.
I have this in both Stainless and Copper and the only use this light has is a decoration that doubles as a flashlight. I daily carry the Beta-QRv2 and the Maratac Copper AAA on my keys and badge holder and neither of them have any issue with the head falling off or strobing from wobble.
Avoid this unless you are willing to pay constant attention to make sure the head is still attached and not strobing or just on already.
JETBeam/Niteye add more threads or do better at machining these so there is not as much slop in the few threads between Off and falling off.
