" ...  After 4 years, an arm snapped off when I went to change batteries . ... which, I probably tightened too much when I originally installed- the parts are just plastic, but aren't chintzy.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Dumbest put hade I ever made, the item weighs too much for the mount, snapped off fell to the ground and shattered, what a shame  ...  "
comment
" ...  Only problem was two of them had some chipped plastic around the housing.  ...  "
comment
" ...  The bad: Where the two pieces twist lock together. ... Now the black o-ring is fully exposed. ... The way the plastic came off is almost too perfect. ... the plastic was too thin maybe? ... There is still a small section of locking ring left on it, but I am not confident that it will stay. ... I suspect if that cracks off, then the entire light (with batteries) will fall out of the case.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Good lighting solution but the quality of the plastic housing is questionable. ... The sealing lip around the threads flaked off during opening of the housing.  ...  "
