I don't think the flashlight was worth the money I paid, $56 for the flashlight and $14 for the rechargeable battery that I can't charge because the charger doesn't work. That was a waste of money!
This flashlight is awesome
It never ever seems to need recharging
It is so bright and it does blink and blind animals and people
Same as everyone else, quit twice in below 0 weather, while in an emergency situation. Can not contact. Email says call for faster service, but when you call it says to email. I received one in email a couple of weeks ago. They said that someone would contact me within 48 hours. Never happened. Now no response at all. Lens was also scratched when I received it. No carry pouch either. I shure got took. Bought in good faith! Thinking I was buying military grade. What is wrong with this world?
I wish I read these reviews before I threw my money away on this flashlight. The flashlight works but they never sent me the charger to charge the batteries they sold me. Why they didn't put the charger in the box with the battery is mind numbing. I was scammed for two of these things and I could have bought 10 of the same things from the TV. Just a different brand but the same fing flashlight for 75% cheaper. Live and Learn I guess
If you really want to through your money away, deal with this company, and you will truly feel my pain...$145.00 worth,,,, These people should go to jail.
If yo like to waist you money buy a Shadowhawkflashlight. I have mine today with out battery charger and after wait 30 days and a BBB complain.
Flashlight, which is not inexpensive, is of poor quality. Literally fell apart after second use, but outside the 30 day warranty period. No relief from the company after numerous communications.
After receiving an email offer, I tried to order online 1 flashlight for $29.95 and 1 battery/charger pack for $19.95. When I received the email confirmation of the orders I was charged for 5 flashlights ($145.00) and 5 battery/charger packs ($90.00). It took a couple of days to be able to speak to a customer service rep and after a very lengthy phone call I convinced them to cancel the order and refund my money. They grudgingly agreed because I told them I would dispute the charges with my credit card company if the did not do so. They in fact fairly promptly refunded the charges and then about 4 days after that a package arrived with 5 flashlights. I called the company to ask them to e-mail me a return UPS mailer which they refused to do and they expect me to pay to return the flashlights out of my pocket, even though it was their error. And they threaten to charge my credit card again if I fail to return them. I believe that their website is intentionally set up to gain more charges than the customer expects. This is a scamming company.
These guys put out photos of high tech lasers, then scam you to purchase a $5 china flashlight for $50 when they put it in a $0.02 case, plus shipping and handling. DON'T fall for this internet scam - just flush your money down the toilet - it's less headache!
I will add my name to the many already out there. If you are seeing this and are considering buying a shadowhawk flashlight- take our advice. DON'T. I had mine less than two weeks and it quit. I feel the same way as Tim S. I can't believe I fell for this.
This is Denise again, 3 months and still waiting. The only way you can contact this company is through email, if you call the customer service line you will be on hold forever. I was on hold for thirty seven and a half minutes and still had no one answer the phone. So email after email I asked where my order was, finally I told him I wanted a refund, haven't heard anything back, if I had to do this all over again I would never have placed an order with this company. This company receives two thumbs down with me. It would receive more thumbs down but I only have two thumbs LOL so, I am still waiting,
I ordered 5 of the flashlights, they failed to come with the batteries and chargers, the only phone number on their brochure is for a dental office. After reading the reviews, I should have never purchased these. I need to return them and get a quick refund.
I BOUGHT 3 OF THESE FLASHLIGHTS W/CHARGERS. WELL, THE MANUAL CLEARLY STATES THAT IF AND WHEN IT LOSES IT'S CHARGE, PLUG IN THE CHARGER, AND ALLOW IT TO RECHARGE FOR AT LEAST 45 MINUTES. WELL, WHEN THE CHARGER IS PLUGGED IN, A RED LIGHT APPEARS. NO PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM, IS THAT AS SOON AS I PLACE THE BATTERY ONTO THE CHARGER, THE LIGHT AUTOMATICALLY GOES TO GREEN, WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO APPEAR WHEN THE BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED. OK,... NO LARGE DOG. I'LL SIMPLY TIME IT FOR 45 MINUTES, AND THAT WILL TAKE CARE OF IT. WELL, ONCE FULLY CHARGED, I PUT THE BATTERY BACK IN, AND IT'S ALL GOOD. NOT,... THE VERY NEXT DAY, I TURN THE FLASH LIGHT BACK ON, AND IT'S DEAD AGAIN. I'M KIND OF PERPLEXED. I CURRENTLY HAVE IT CHARGING YET AGAIN. THIS IS THE THIRD TRY FOR ME. I AM FRUSTRATED, TO SAY THE LEAST. SO FAR,... SO BAD.
So many reviews of the site comment on how this company is a scam and how they are stealing people's money by posting fake videos. This is not the entire truth though. I have bought a large lot of flashlights here and they all came... "Why the bad review then?" Because the quality was seriously lacking and the shipping was late. They arrived 2 months late and one of them broke within the FIRST DAY. So, they are a LEGIT company, they just sell a bad product and have even worse service.
Darrell Rumfelt. Bought a shadowhawk led flashlight and I received it and the led keep un screening and falling out. Now the flashlight doesn't work anymore. The wall charger broke the first day. I paid $ 69.99
If you were dumb enough (like I admit I was) to fall for their ads, at least check your order when it arrives. 3 of the 5 flashlights were DOA - the switch wouldn't work. When I took the base cap off to check the switch, the whole switch assembly and spring flew out across the room. They promised 3 replacements (no return/swap of the defectives needed which should tell you something about how much they are making on these when they can send 3 replacements free). After 10 days I called to see where my replacements were (promised in 5-7 days). They had only shipped the day before. Lousy customer service or outright lying - whatever you prefer. Yeah, it's bright. But go save up your money and buy a decent flashlight with 800 or 1000 lumens. One that will last. BTW, I certainly don't trust the rechargeable battery and charger included. It may be shipped from the USA, but the quality screams cheap $#*! from commie China. I will not be leaving the battery in the plugged-in charger unattended. Can you say potential fire?
I have mini mag lite that are brighter than this piece of garbage. Its a scam don't purchase any
I have been SCAMMED as well. I have contacted a high profile attorney in Tennessee who will take the case as well as go for criminal charges. Please send your email address to *******@gmail.com I can forward your info to the Attorney so they can contact you. Tired of being scammed me TO.
I bought 5 flashlights and they all suck. I have regular flashlights that outshine the shadowhawks 10 over. This is a scam. Do not buy one of their flashlights. I can't believe I fell for this. Never again. The people who run this company should go to jail.
Answer: Chuck it and get a MagLite!
Answer: You got scammed! Read the reviews.
