** 2013 Holiday Gift Guide Feature ** Now that my husband and I are getting all settled into our new home we are really looking forward to the holidays. This year we are going way out and putting up a lot of outdoor Christmas lights …
Over the past couple of weeks I have been blogging here on our Two Classy Chics blog about all of the outdoor holiday decorations and holiday lights that hubby and I have been working on. You can find my previous posts right here on our …
Today I would like to introduce you to the lighting company called Dorcy who sells hundreds and hundreds of indoor and outdoor lighting products. When you shop at Dorcy Direct you will find motion sensing lighting, flashlights, flood lights, path lights, battery operated ceiling lights, camping lanterns, headlights, spotlights and so much more!
I have had the pleasure of reviewing several fabulous products from Dorcy Direct over the past year or so and I have never been disappointed with any of them. The holidays are just around the corner and today we have a GREAT holiday gift for those men on your holiday list who need a quality, professional flashlight!
The company sent us the DieHard® 41-6004 3 AAA 180 Lumen LED Flashlight to review for all of you. If you have been following our blog the past year, you already know that my husband loves flashlights and uses them every day thanks to his occupation.
DieHard 180 Lumen LED Flashlight Features:
* Anodized Aluminum Casing
* Battery Life Indicator
* Weather Resistant
* 180 Lumens on High Mode, 90 Lumens on Low Mode
* Polycarbonate Lens
* Push Button Switch with High & Low Settings
* Convenient Lanyard
* Uses 3 “AAA” Cell Batteries, Included
Our Thoughts: Let me first state this…as a woman, I really love this flashlight due to it being light-weight and the perfect size for my small hands. In addition, I can tuck it into my toolbox, a kitchen drawer or the glove box in my car easily due to it’s smaller, slender size.
Hubby appreciates that this flashlight has an anodized aluminum casing as he is always dropping his flashlights onto hard surfaces and having an anodized aluminum casing helps to protect it whereas plastic flashlights would normally break. Next, it’s small and slender enough to fit in one of the pockets or loops of his utility work belt. When he is working on something and needs to be hands-free he uses the convenient lanyard to hang up the flashlight which is another bonus!
He likes that there is a high mode and a low mode with a push button switch. You click it once for the high mode and click it twice for the low mode. He said the high mode is really bright and great for using at night or in super dark places. The low mode is great for daytime use or when you have some light in the room already. One of his favorite things about this flashlight is the Battery Life Indicator light. When you have a lot of battery power left it glows green and when you have 20% or less of battery power left, it will glow red. He thinks that is super cool!
He has been using this flashlight for about 2 weeks now doing miscellaneous projects around the house and really loves it! He was using it a few days ago while replacing some heating ducts down in our basement. It was plenty bright enough to tackle that job.
Often times men are super hard to buy for when it comes to holiday shopping and this DieHard LED Flashlight would make the perfect holiday gift. You can purchase it at Dorcy for around $35.00 or less depending on the style & functions.

Today I would like to introduce you to the lighting company called Dorcy who sells hundreds and hundreds of indoor and outdoor lighting products. When you shop at Dorcy Direct you will find motion sensing lighting, flashlights, flood lights, path lights, battery operated ceiling lights, camping lanterns, headlights, spotlights and so much more!

For this review, my husband was sent the DieHard® 41-6009 6 AA 619 Lumen LED Flashlight to review for all of you. I will admit upfront, my hubby is HARD on things like this due to his occupation. He is a licensed HVAC professional with his plumbing, electrician and Freon licenses. He knows quality tools when he sees them and works with tools every day at work or at home.
DieHard 6AA Extreme Flashlight Features:
* 619 LED Lumens
* Beam Shines Overs 1,000 Feet
* Anodized Aluminum Hi-Lo Beam
* Mode 1 (high beam) 619 Lumens
* Mode 2 (low beam) 173 Lumens
* Easy Push Button Switch
* Convenient Attached Lanyard
* Uses 6 “AA” Cell Batteries, Included
Product Description (from site): The 600+ Lumen LED DieHard Extreme Lumen Flashlight features Dorcy’s exclusive TrueSpot® reflector technology, providing world class brightness and an intense beam of light through 618 lumens output that projects a 363 meter beam distance. The flashlight is constructed of aerospace grade anodized aluminum, and contains a polycarbonate lens making it extremely durable. The LED flashlight is o-ring sealed against dust and moisture providing a weather resistant design (IPX4). This flashlight has a multi-functional side mounted push button switch offering high & low setting.
Our Thoughts: Hubby loves flashlights and I would estimate that he owns at least 20 of them. He keeps some of his flashlights at home, some are in the car & truck and many of them are at work. He manages a large HVAC work crew so these boys know quality flashlights when they see them.
The first thing that hubby said to me about this particular flashlight is that he loves that its made out of durable Anodized Aluminum. The guys are always dropping their flashlights onto hard surfaces so having one that isn’t made out of plastic is a “must” in their profession. Next, he loves that there are 2 light settings, a low mode and a high mode. He can set it for the exact amount of light he needs for whatever project he is working on.
Finally, there are times they are outdoors working on external heating & AC systems and thanks to the powerful 619 Lumens, they can see what they are doing even in the dead of night. With a beam that shines over 1,000 feet it is a great flashlight to have on hand. My brother is an outdoorsman who fishes, boats, hunts, does archery, etc. and this flashlight would be perfect for him too!
Hubby said it is one of the best and most powerful flashlights he has ever used. You can pick them up at Dorcy Direct for around $89.99 and he said it is money well-spent!
