It's not true that it's only worth $5. You paid $10 for it and I probably would have too, so that makes it worth at least $10 in some places.
Yea, i'd say it is worth $10 since it works!
Oh memories! Had one of these in the house growing up, if there was a strange noise outside (wooded property) Dad would go out with the Big Beam flashlight to take a look. That sucker could shine all the way up into the tall trees.
Thanks again BOGIE262.
