I've been using this penlight for over 10 years, first as a student and then as a professional optometrist. It's solid, bright and easy. The thumb switch on the end is easy and sure. It's not much heavier than a fancy pen and about the same size.
I've only ever had to replace it once, after breaking the switch on my first one after about seven years. The current one is going strong.
My only complaint is that it's not available in an LED form yet to extend the battery life.

I have owned three of these penlights. I like the weight of the penlight. It feels very sturdy. The halogen bulb is bright and the switch is easy to use. However, there is an unforgivable flaw with this product. The switch is attached to the metal body by a threaded plastic flange. Each of these has just snapped off in my hand when turning the light on. The first one was after 6 months of daily use in an optometry office. It was replaced under the warranty. The replacement did the same thing at about 9 months. I liked the light enough to buy another one, but alas 13 months later it met the same fate and is past the one year warranty. Now I have to decide if I like it enough to spend $50 on it every year, essentially. I think I will look for another option.
