BestFire® Mini Waterproof Headlamp Review

This is a handy little headlamp to have!

This is one of the brightest LED headlamps I have had before. I feel that the light on this is a bit 'wide angled' which I love. There is no zoom option, but because it is so bright, I don't feel like I need that option. There is a strobe and red lights as well. I am not sure what I will ever use the red lights for, but I like them nonetheless.

This lamp requires 3 AAA batteries which are not included in the package. They were easy to install as well. The button is easy to push to turn the lamp on, and I had no issues adjusting the head strap either. I wish this had the strap that went across the top of the head, to keep it from sliding down my forehead, but other than that, it's a great lamp.

It's not as heavy as some headlamps which is a total bonus as well! This will fold down at a 90 degree angle, so that you can shine it down instead of straight ahead as well. I love that feature!

Overall this is a fantastic headlamp, and I am glad I have it! I received this for free for the purpose of an honest review. My opinions are my own and are not influenced in any way.

If you'd like to purchase this for yourself, please do so below! Make sure you take a look at the pics too!





BestFire® Super Bright Zoomable Headlamp Hatlight

Okay, so my husband has decided that this is his absolute favorite.

This light is fantastic in my opinion. This can be used as a headlamp, with the provided strap OR a hatlamp, with the clips on the light part. Very versatile!

This is a super bright LED headlamp. The light shines brighter than a normal flashlight, and you can see anything you need to see with it! You can zoom in and out with it, for a smaller or larger coverage area as well.

This is easy to turn on and easy to install batteries in. It requires 3 AAA batteries, which are NOT included with purchase, so make sure you have some on hand when you purchase this.

The strap that comes with it is fully adjustable, for any sized head. When you clip the lamp onto the strap's holster, it stays in place VERY sturdy, and the light part folds down so that it shines in front of you, instead of up in the sky!

Overall it's a fantastic head/hat lamp that myself and my husband recommend! I would purchase another when/if this one quits on me! I received this for free for the purpose of an honest review. My opinion is my own and is not influenced in any way!

BestFire® Waterproof 2 Modes Headlamp Review

So my husband is a stickler for headlamps, and he's pretty picky when it comes to getting one that he likes. He prefers a hat lamp, but will take a headlamp as well, for those days when he doesn't have his hat for some reason.

This headlamp is pretty awesome to be honest. It has a zoomable mini flashlight type lamp to it. You can slide the flashlight in and out a little bit for your zoom. It folds downwards, so if you need it pointing down, you can do that as well.

This headlamp has a 3 way strap. It goes around your head, and over the top. I guess that would be more of a two way strap. However you want to call it. It stay securely on your head, and is fully adjustable for smaller or bigger heads as well.

The button on the lamp is easy to push to turn on. The buttons to remove the battery cover are a bit harder to push, but I like that, as it means that the cover won't come off on it's own free will!

This lamp is LED, so it is very bright! You can see anything in the way of the light! It has a steady light, as well as an annoying strobe light, which I drove my kids crazy with LOL. It takes 3 AAA batteries, which are NOT included, so be prepared to have some on hand!

Overall this is a fantastic light that I highly recommend! This will be a nice addition to anyone's flashlight collection! It's a great value for the money as well! I received this for free for the purpose of an honest review. My opinion is my own and is not influenced in any way!!

JawayTool®6pc Diamond Needle File Set Review

My husband was happy when I told him I was getting this for free for an honest review. The opinions you read below are our own and are not influenced in any way.

This file set is handy-dandy. It's small and compact, so that we can store it in a tool bag or chest without it taking up much space. The files come in a case, that snaps close easily, and stays closed. There are 6 different files for all your filing needs.

Each file has a soft handle to hang onto so that your hand is comfortable when using them. These are small files, so if you need a large one, these aren't the ones for you. These work great for small projects like making jewelry, filing chains, etc. They snap into the case well, so that they won't fall out when not in use, while the case is open.

Overall this is a great file set and I highly recommend it.

You can purchase these below.

Baofeng Walkie Talkie Review

I was so super excited to get these this week! These are well made Walkie Talkies. They come in a pair (of course, because what would you do with just one? LOL). I have these in Camo. They also come in black and red though.

These walkies come with the battery, antennae, charging station, clip and earphone. They are no bigger than the palm of my hand, and because of the clip, you can easily clip them to your belt loop or pocket. The sound quality is amazing. When speaking into them the person on the other end can hear everything crystal clear. The volume is fantastic as well, and super loud

I haven't figured out all the technical stuff yet. I'm leaving that up to my husband. I know how to turn them on, turn on the alarm (pretty cool feature if you're out walking without someone with you, and encounter a problem where you need to alert those around you), change the channel and turn on the radio. As well as talk  to the person on the other end. My husband says that he can pick up the scanner bands on this as well, but we haven't tried it yet. This also has a built-in VOX function.

You can read the specs on this HERE, I won't bore you with them, since they are easy to find. So far, for the features that I do know, these are so easy to use. I've had a lot of fun with them.

These have a 12 hour life after being charged, which is even better if you are going to need to use them for an extended period of time. The range is supposed to be 3 miles, but I haven't been able to try that yet. We plan to this weekend, when my husband is home from work.

They also have a flashlight on the top, even better bonus! The LCD display is big enough for me to read it. The antennae is great. I've tried to get FM on my regular radio in the house. It NEVER works. With this though, I can pick a station, set the walkie on the counter and hear it in the other room! No static or anything! The frequency range is 136-174 MHz and 400-480 MHz.

Overall these are great walkies! If you have any questions, I would be happy to attempt to answer them for you, or try to get the answer. Just leave it in the comments.

I received these for the purpose of an honest review. My opinion is my own and is not influenced in any way!

BestFire® Super Bright Flashlights Review

So recently I received two of the Bestfire Flashlights for review. I am going to review them both here and then compare them for you.

First is the E21 Portable Super Bright Cree XM-L T6 U2 2000 Lumens Zoomable 5 mode Cree LED Flashlight Torch.

This flashlight is a new favorite in our household. It's not much smaller than the maglight that we used to have. However, this seems much much more durable than that. It's very thick and made of heavy, strong material. This is super bright, and LED. I LOVE LED lights. You can see so much more with them. Plus, in my opinion they don't eat batteries near as fast as standard lights.

This light has 5 modes when on. High, Middle, Low, Strobe and SOS. I must admit, I had way too much fun, irritating my son and hubby with the strobe and SOS light tonight. LOL.

This also comes with two 3.7V Li-ion batteries and a charger for them. There are two plastic adapters as well, to hold the batteries in place, when inside of the flashlight. It also comes with two battery adapters to put in 6 (3 per adapter) AAA batteries if you wish to do that. (Although I wouldn't, because rechargeables are better, and they will last longer). The button is on the top of the light, and you can pull the bulb in, in and out, to focus a bit better if need be, as with any flashlight. 

Overall this is a fantastic flashlight that I received for free for the purpose of an honest review. My opinion is my own and I highly recommend this to anyone who needs a good flashlight on hand!

Next up is the BestFire® Super Bright C8 Cree Xm-l LED T6 Flashlight Torch Lamp.

I love this flashlight for carrying in my purse. For some reason, whenever we are out and about, we always need a flashlight, and never have one. We're those type of people, who put it in the van, until we need it in the house, then forget to take it back out. So we get somewhere, and realize we don't have one, when we need it LOL. Not anymore! It's perfect for fitting into just about any purse I have!

This has 5 modes of light. High, Middle, Low, Strobe and SOS. The brightness is amazing, especially with it being LED. LED is always better IMO. If you read my other reviews for LED lights, you'll see that I prefer it over anything. 

This comes with two 3.7V Li-ion batteries and a charger. The flashlight itself only takes one battery, so if you keep them charged up, you can always have a spare battery with you when needed! The charger is specific for these batteries only, so please don't try using it with anything else.

This flashlight is well made and heavy duty so I imagine it will last us quite some time. 

Overall I love this flashlight and will highly recommend it to anyone looking for a strong flashlight, to keep on themselves. I did receive this for free for the purpose of an honest review. My opinion listed here is my own and is not influenced in any way.

Now. The comparison.

I do love BOTH lights almost equally. Personal preference for me is the smaller one, because I can carry it with me. If you ask my husband, he will choose the larger one because that's just him. Men always like bigger and better toys anyway. LOL.

They are made from the same material, so there is no comparison there. The batteries are the same, so again no comparison. I do like that if you run down the re-chargeables on the large one, you can switch to AAA batteries if you have them on hand while waiting for the others to charge up. Bonus for the big one.

Either way, both flashlights are pretty awesome and we love them and recommend them now to anyone who asks.

Super Bright 11 LED Hat Light Review

When I saw this hatlight, I immediately knew my husband had to have it. He had a different styled one that went kaput a while back, so he was in need of a new one.

This one is pretty awesome because it has clips to place it on the bill of your hat without issue. So it becomes hands free. It clips to the bottom side of the hat, and leaves the button toward your head so that it is easy to reach. It is also VERY bright, and LED (I prefer LED, as most people do, it works better IMO). You could use this for a variety of things. I assume my husband will use it most when we are out doing things at night, as it is starting to get dark.

The battery cover comes off very easily and it takes 3 AAA batteries (NOT included). There is no need for instructions, it is very self explanatory.

Overall this is a great hat light. It's made very well, and seems like it will hold up well also. I highly recommend it for someone looking for a decent hatlight.

I received this product for free for the purpose of an honest review. My opinions are my own and are not influenced in any way.
