Dulotec did a lot of things right with their first self-designed flashlight. Beam, handling and operation, the Guardian can impress in many practical situations of tactical use. Care was taken to keep the costs down, while keeping attention to details such as the integrated tactical ring or the magnetic charging port.

What usually happens with those buttons is that they fail to turn on the thing entirely or they make it flicker randomly.

Huh? That never happened with any of my flashlights. Mechanical tail switches are pretty reliable.

Don't compare the flashlights you'll find here in c/flashlight with these cheap flashlights with fake lumen ratings. 😉

I've seen stuff from Nitecore, Olight and Pelican failing that way so... guess not that cheap.
