I've now bought two of these and they are faultless.
I was looking for a small LED torch that took a single AAA battery to go in my digital camera bag and this is just perfect. Barely bigger than the battery inside the aluminium construction is of a very good quality and the light output is great for such a small unit. I bought the other torch for my wife as we live in a dark Devon village and it lights the path to our house a treat.
Very highly recommended, especially as it takes the AAA battery and not a few of those button cells that are expensive to replace and hard to get hold of.

This little torch is even better than I expected actually. I decided to buy two of these to replace two 'keychain' Maglite AAA Solitaires (both bought through 7DaysShop in 2007) after being told about the improved battery longevity and superiority of LED torches due to LEDs lower power requirements. Torches like these may seem like useless toys, but let me tell you they aren't: my wife used her little Solitaire a year and a half back when the lift at work broke down sending her and the elderly lady she was stuck in the lift with into pitch blackness. This little torch enabled her to read the emergency contact number label inside the lift and shout it down to a member of staff below..they should have had it already really, I know.
Side by side, these Ring LED Cyba Lite "LightStar" torches knock the Maglite AAA Solitaires out of orbit quite frankly. They are far superior in brightness to the Maglites, especially given their diminutive size, and the light is white with a blue tinge, not yellow like with bulbs...and no dark spot as with bulbs.
The LightStars are exactly 1cm shorter than the Maglite Solitaires, but then the LightStars don't need a spare bulb in the end cap. The LightStars are slightly wider in diameter, but only by about 2mm. The keychain has a rotating joint, which is necessary believe me: without it keyring torches tend to gradually unscrew and fall away unnoticed (Maglite Solitaires tend to do this).
The one feature of the dinky Solitaires that made it unique was its 'candle' feature: unscrew the head and it exposes the bulb. Obviously you don't get this with the LightStars, being that they are LEDs, but I can live with that.
Turning the torches on and off is done the same way as the Maglites, by rotating the torch head. Personally, I would have preferred that the torches were 1cm longer and an on/off button on the end, as with the bigger Ring Cyba-lite Rebels.
At £6.99 a go I do think they are slightly overpriced. I paid £5.99 each for the Solitaires approx. 3 years ago, and I think these should be no more than that as well...or even better, a pack of 2 for £9.99 would be perfect. However, aside the price quibble, both my wife and I are pleased with our new Cyba Lite "LightStars", and the quality is easily comparable with the Maglites, although the Cyba-lites are much, brighter than the Maglites, so can't complain.
I've snapped and uploaded a few 'customer images' of these torches for a better look.

This little torch gives an incredible illumination from such a small package. The only problem I have had is that the key chain is of inferior quality to the torch and snapped at the swivel in a couple of days!

Small, compact perfect for fiting in my handbag
Really small but quite powerful. Perfect for popping in my handbag or in my rucksack when i'm on holiday. Seems quite sturdy for such a small torch.

Useful little torch.
I use this purely as a torch (not as a keyring). Useful for navigating the house, without turning on lights and waking others, when I wake up in the night. Read more
