Conclusion:
KeySmart's Nano Torch Twist magnetic swivel LED flashlight is really a well made, reliable flashlight that does what you expect, plus a bit more. The various lighting modes are a nice touch, but the swivel head and magnetic base really make this a valuable tool to have. This will save me a good deal of frustration just in the amount of time I spend under my hood or completely under the car. Instead of struggling to get drop lights or other flashlights to stay pointed where I want them, this one is small enough to fit just about anywhere, and provide bright light where I need it, hands free. Even away from the cars it is very handy. It is compact enough to go with you just about anywhere, and it will light up the darkest places with ease.
The only downside is that you have to be fairly committed to having a high quality flashlight, as the price tag on the Nano Torch Twist is a bit more than your average light. You can get it for
$60 straight from
KeySmart, or if you are an
Amazon.com shopper you can prepare to drop
$70! Both will offer free shipping, which is good to keep the price from climbing any higher, because this is already up there. I have a few flashlights I think are pretty nice around that house that cost $20-$30, and then I have plenty of mini torches that Home Depot seems to have on sale around this time of year in a 10 pack for $10, but nothing this pricey.
KeySmart's Nano Torch Twist magnetic swivel LED flashlight is a very handy light, that feels as if it is built to last for years to come, and shouldn't need a new battery for a long time. For this, it earns the Bigbruin.com "Recommended" award.
