If I'm not mistaken, I picked this item as one of the free things I received during a promotion.
The specific store I purchased through does not sell this item any longer, so I will be naming some alternative stores with the exact same product.
I am one of those people who can never have enough flashlights or enough weapons. On average, you won't find another store that beats Temu when it comes to survival gear. They have some really quality things for cheap. Yes, I'm aware those two words aren't usually put together, but I have some reviews I am so excited to share coming up in the survival category that we will be getting to very soon.
But today, the topic is this hybrid gadget. This won't be a super long review, as it is a pretty simple, straightforward product
Anyway, when you pick out free items as part of promotions, you can't always get all the product details. There is one big aspect to this product I wasn't aware of, that is disappointing. I'll tell you what that is and all the other tea.
Let's get started:

- Waterproofing - not specified, only stated "Outdoor waterproof"
FUNCTIONALITY/ PERFORMANCE:
Functions:
- keep in the glovebox for emergencies
- Camping
- wilderness
- emergency supplies/ storm supplies
- Self-defense
Performance:
This item is made out of an ABS plastic material, and thus will not perform as well overall compared to something made of metal. The short length is good for close confines but is very light overall. The window breaker is functional, and both flashlights are pleasantly bright.
SELLER INFORMATION:
As mentioned toward the beginning of the article, the seller I received mine though no longer sells this item. Instead, I bring you two alternative sellers, the same product.
The first seller is the one I would recommend = AnimalAce
This store, established for 1 year, is #19 Top Rated store in outdoor lights.
AnimalAce has a total of 20 product offerings, 125 followers, and over 200,000 total items sold. They have a total of 5,306 store reviews averaging 4.7 stars.
AnimalAce has sold 450 of this exact item and has gotten 37 reviews averaging 4.5 stars.
The keywords for the product's reviews are "useful," and "Good quality".
The item offered by this store is fulfilled by Temu, and not a local warehouse.
The shipping option is free and arrives in 5 business days on average.
Being fulfilled through Temu means: 5$ credit if late, free returns, automatic refund if an item takes too long to update, price adjustment function, and funds Temu's Tree planting program.
Now, here is store number 2 = New Fuhao Ecommerce
This store has not been established for very long. It has a total of 36 items with a total of 1.4k products sold and has 16 followers. They average 4.7 stars in their 91 total store reviews .
The assortment of products offered do not relate to any one category.
Since this is a Local Warehouse option, you must order $30.00 or more from this store to get free shipping.
For this specific item, New Fuhao Ecommerce has sold 365 units, with 18 reviews averaging 4.7 stars.
The keywords for the product reviews are: "Handy gadget," and "efficient"
INITIAL THOUGHTS:
A fun fact about me is that I used to keep a rusty hatchet underneath the driver's seat of my car, and came close to needing it a few times. Nowadays, I just keep a 9mm in the car. However, I understand that some states frown on that and that some people may not be able to or may not want to carry a firearm. Products like this are good for a variety of reasons. I frequently hike in the wilderness alone, and this item works great for that purpose.
It's about the perfect size to keep in my car. But, I can't seem to get over the fact that it is ABS plastic and not metal. Since I purchased through a promotion, I did not see that detail, although the first seller I listed above states very clearly the material used.
Regardless, it would work very well for the purpose of escaping my car or beating someone's hands away from the car window.
My 9-year-old loves it. He is always worried about the large predators when we're camping. He feels better walking off to pee with this thing in hand. The flashlights both work very well, and keep battery life better than anticipated.
Since the glass breaker is so convex and pointy it could be used, in addition, for self-defense purposes.
I believe that the texture on the bat portion is meant to disperse force, which may prevent it from breaking.
My fiance and I both believe that if you truly had to use this to defend yourself it would work. But by the end of the encounter, this thing may be possibly smashed to bits, or at the very least the flashlight on the top would cease to operate.
PROS AND CONS:
Pros:
- Multiple functions
- Bright flashlights
- Pointy window breaker
- Fits in most standard glove compartments or center consoles of vehicles.
- easily concealed
- Battery life
- recharges
- good for confined spaces
- Perfect for car emergencies
Cons:
- Plastic material
- Not made as one piece, which increases breaking risk
- The window breaker point seems loose in placement (but has not come off)
- Says "outdoor waterproof" but does not specify as to the actual rating.
- is not magnetic
- must get in close contact to use as self-defense tool.
PRICING & LINKS:
The links and pricing is also listed under the seller information section of the review. Here is is again for convenience:
RECOMMENDED?
Despite this being made of plastic, I would recommend the product. If nothing else, the flashlights are great and the battery lasts very well. Overall, this is a good tool for automotive emergencies, camping, or outdoor uses.
I would not recommend paying more than 10$ for this item.
