Energizer Vision HD Ultra LED Flashlight

Firstly, I'll note that the product listing page is confusing and seemingly inaccurate. The product page I ordered from called it "ENERGIZER LED Flashlight PRO", my order history calls it " ENERGIZER LED Flashlight Vision PRO" and the product image was of one with a yellow neck ring. Looking at their chart in the detailed description, it seems the one I received was "Vision HD with Digital Focus", the one with the green ring around the neck. The description also stated it takes 6 AA batteries, but the one I received is rechargable via MicroUSB only and does not have any way to remove or replace the batteries. The included pamphlet states it can be used to recharge other devices such as phones which is a potential plus. Ultimately I just wanted a brand-name flashlight that wasn't bound to my phone so the difference doesn't matter too much to me, but if you're looking for a particular model you probably want to look on a site that isn't rampant with misleading word salad product names. The brightness seems good, the body is metal and has a solid weight to it, I can't speak to durability or battery life yet but overall it seems like a perfectly fine flashlight. The end is rounded, so it's not possible to stand it on its end, if that's a feature you're looking for. My biggest issue, even more than it not being clear which flashlight I was actually receiving, is how the brightness modes are implemented. The entire thing is controlled with one button which leads to some really annoying, undesirable, and potentially dangerous results. Pressing the button cycles the brightness between high, low, strobe, and off. THERE IS NO WAY TO TURN THE LIGHT OFF WITHOUT CYCLING PAST THE STROBE MODE. The strobe flashes between full brightness and off quite rapidly. I don't suffer from visual epilepsy but flashing lights are quite unpleasant to me and this one's enough to start a headache and slight dizziness for me. It would make so much more sense to have the high/low/strobe setting on a separate switch, like most other flashlights I've used. This attempt to "simplify" the controls (probably to cut costs) means if you are prone to photosensitive seizures I have to suggest you steer clear of this light. Also, there are beam width settings, but no instructions included on how to activate them, so I had to look in the Q&As here. This is where the "digital focus" comes in, as while the beam is in the setting you want to use, you need to hold the button for a good 5 seconds as the focus changes. The light flickers slightly the whole time, and quickly blinks off for a moment when it's reached one end of its focus range. It's very unpleasant, takes an annoyingly long time, is also a potential risk for photosensitive people, and in general is just a badly implemented function. Again, would've just preferred a separate manual focus control. Overall, it is... a flashlight. It makes light, it feels like it's not going to break anytime soon, the things I need it to do are there. But the electronics side is implemented in a poorly thought out way that is at best annoying and at worst dangerous, so I would probably look elsewhere. I don't think I'm going to bother returning it since it's really only for occasional household use, but if you're someone who uses a flashlight frequently, such as for camping or work, I'd look for one that has separate controls for its brightness/strobe, power, and focus. Also, steer clear of any off-brand flashlights on amazon that claim lumen counts in the 5 figures. They are, straight-up, lying through their teeth. Which is good because if they were being truthful then some of the flashlights sold on here would be instantly blinding their users.
