Battery fried/bulb burst/wires melted........Another highly successful WL product.
Anyone notice how fuzion from LC got a good one? Look under the flashlights section of LC to see what I mean.

Man Wicked Laser's quality just gets better and better!

For high voltage bulbs, coils, wires, ect your suposed to use tungsten metal but nooo Wicked Lasers is to bussy overcharging people and cuting back on costs that they just using standard steal wire and then it melts.

BTW the batteries burning could be because they did not use the special WL batteries but even then its stupid that you create a device and you make it so people HAVE to buy your stuff to get it to run.

Jeez this is ridiculous, maybe this review will spread.

Heh, same kind of thing as the 'phones are getting too small' thing.

Sure, we want things more and more powerful (or, smaller and smaller) but there is a point where it just stops being functional

Wicked should probably stick with lasers and get those ones working right before diversifying.

I'd pay another $100 for tungsten wiring and a power dial. What if I don't want to kill people with the beam sometimes? Jeez...

he he at what point does a focuses torch become a laser... I mean with that torch you'd be able to se ethe beam at night and everything

That's not possible since the light from a flashlight is not coherent, you can focus it down to a small spot, but after that it will just diverge again.

If you wan't bright light, stick to HID. : It's good they didn't use a Li-Po battery.Who know how that would've exploded in their face. :-/

I'd much rather this than a maglite

I might be new to lasers but not to flashlights at all. its funny how over priced this is. Go to cpf and search for mag 623, its brighter then this 1/3 of the price and doesnt fail. Or get even brighter like 20k lumens with a 657 still only 1/3 the cost

Best of all you build it yourself
