My Tac Light Elite Video Review
Pros
- Dual Function
One major pro is that the Tac Lite Elite is a dual function gadget where it is both a flashlight and a lantern, so it can be used in many different situations.
How to Use (Step by Step)
- Remove From Packaging
The Tax Light Elite comes in a cardboard box which can be opened with scissors.
- Insert Batteries
The light requires batteries to be inserted at the base of the light, the opposite end of where the light shines.
- Ready to Use
Once the batteries are correctly inserted, the light is turned on and off with the red button located about an inch from where the light shines. This switch also powers and changes between the other modes of light and strobe.
Save Money
The Tac Lite Elite has a lifetime guarantee from Bell and Howell and so it will be the only flashlight that one would ever need to purchase. If it breaks somehow, simply contact the manufacturer and they will send a new light. There is also a special offer from Bell and Howell where they are offering two Tac Lite Elites for the price of one. In order to get the second light, one would need to pay for the shipping and handling costs separately.
Negative Points
- Batteries Not Included
Batteries are not included with the purchase of the product and so one cannot begin to use right away.
How it's Different from Competitors
The main difference from other flashlight competitors is the additional feature of also being able to stand upright and function as a lantern. Many flashlights are created in that they need to be held and directed where to shine. The Tac Lite Elite is a lantern so that the user does not need to constantly hold the light in order to have brightness.
Wise Advice
Do not buy Tac Light Elite online before searching Amazon.

Nice Compact Flashlight
I received one of these TacLights as a gift.
I really like it except I wish it was just a single function. On/off.
It's a PITA having to scroll through all the modes that I will never use just to turn it off.

Rip Off
The advertising for this flashlight is a joke! It will not cook an egg nor will it burn a hole through anything. The owners of this company should be put in jail for fraud! Do not buy this product you will be very disappointed.

Piece of Junk
The Elite Tac flashlight is a waste of time and money. I received mine, put in new batteries (yes correctly) tried to use them. And, of course, it didn't work!
What a rip-off!

SCAM RIPOFF JOKE
EliteTec flashlight is a $4.99 flashlight. I actually even bought one just as bright & looked the same (except for the logo) for $4.99. Even if you return their flashlight. They still make a lot of money off you. Because their shipping and handling charges are so outrageous.

Too Expensive not Worth It
This flashlight is not worth getting. It is overpriced and just doesn't put out enough light. I will keep it as a backup flashlight but it won't get used much. My advice is to do your homework and get something that will work better.

The Ones I Recieved Worked for a day
The ones I received worked for a day and then I called and had them replaced and the new ones don't work either but I did notice that the new ones advertised have the power button in a different place they told me they can replace these if I send them back at my cost and they'll send me the same type back which probably won't work either good luck.

Getting There
Its bright, kind of a pain having to cycle through all the functions just to turn it off. Should be rechargeable and work off a 18650 or AAA, like many others. AAA only.

Where's my Order!
Ordered over a month ago & still haven't been notified of shipment, or status. Starting to wonder if I'll ever see it.
