    I have to admit I don’t get the flashlight, unless you don’t have a phone. Tape measure is funny though. I have to admit I’ve been in that position many times about ordering online, but usually I wait till I’m home to measure 🤣

      Don’t discount the flashlight so quickly. I avoid an excessive amount of shit in my pockets and it’s always the same. Money clip, knife, truck key, pen, phone and my flashlight. The Flashlight is fairly small, takes a AAA and is slightly bigger than an AA battery with a pocket clip. It gets used multiple times a day. Makes small print in dimly lit areas easier to read also. Honestly for some reason I despise using my phone as a flashlight:)

      My tiny flashlight will light up my whole yard and then some like it’s day. I do admit that’s a little bit excessive but it’s great for when I hear something out there at night. I don’t exactly live in the best neighborhood… Makes clearing the property a hell of a lot easier and when that things pointed right at you, you can’t see shit.

      Even on the lower settings though it’s far better and faster than using your phone. Also I guess it’s a little bit more specific to my needs because I am a machinist, it’s a lot easier for me to just pull out a flashlight than to strain my eyes trying to see something.

      Whenever my dad visits he always insists on making sure I have multiple flashlights. I always tell him I just use my phone…
