Striker OO105 Magnetic LED Light-Mine Review

I love the concept of this little light. However, a cheap plastic switch kills the reliability. I switched mine on, it worked. Switched it off, then switched it on again. Dead! The light will only stay on if I apply constant pressure on the switch. I was excited to receive this product but was immediately disappointed. Product lifetime = less than one minute.
I give the product a 2nd star only because the company, Risk Racing/Striker, was willing to send me a new unit without requiring that I send back the bad one. I look forward to receiving the replacement, but even so, I have doubts about the durability of this product and its reliability in a rough environment.
I guess you can't ask for much, given the price. Honestly, it is such a unique and cool concept that I would have spent more than double the $7 I spent to own a unit that is more dependable.

Though not much smaller than a golf ball, the new Striker Magnetic LED Light is a powerful spotlight that can be used almost anywhere you need illumination. It has an intensely bright, wide angle LED and 12 powerful rare earth (neodymium) magnets that allow you to stick it to any steel surface or rest it on any surface and aim the light towards the workspace at almost any angle. Professionals, including automotive technicians, electricians, plumbers and HVAC contractors, will want to have one on hand, as it is small enough to fit into tight areas and aim a powerful beam of light where it is needed most. Because of its 12 rare earth magnets, it also works as a pick up tool for dropped screws, nails and hardware. Do-it-yourselfers and homeowners will also find hundreds of uses for the Striker Magnetic LED Light. Use it when working on an engine, changing a tire, wiring a home theater, switching on a breaker, crawling around under a counter or sink. It will stick to the fridge, making it the go-to flashlight for the whole family, and its great to have on camping trips. The potential uses are endless.

Dremel EZ456 1-1/2-Inch EZ Lock Rotary Tool Cut-Off Wheels for Metal, 5-Pack Review

I bought this product and the EZ406 product (same but with a mandrel) from Amazon, I'm very pleased with these cut-off wheels for heavier duty jobs, they'll make quick work of 2mm-3mm steel, which is pretty impressive for my money with a Dremel.
A couple of thoughts:
1) The EZ406 package (Dremel EZ406 1 1/2-Inch EZ Lock Rotary Tool Cut-Off Wheel & Mandrel Metal Cutting Starter Kit) includes a quick change mandrel and the same number of cut-off wheels for only a couple dollars more, it's convenient to me to have multiple mandrels with accessories pre-attached (I know it's quick release, it's still convenient, and I have multiple rotary tools) so unless you already have a few 'EZ Lock' mandrels, I'd suggest that package.
2) These leave burns in wood incredibly easily, and yes I have a variable speed Dremel and use the various speeds. Maybe it sounds obvious to some, and admittedly the 'standard' fiberglass wheels do so as well, but even for a small quick wood cut I'd suggest taking the time to swap out for a plain old (non-fiberglass) heavy-duty cut-off wheel. Works fine for plastic though, cuts like butter.

The Dremel 1-1/2-Inch EZ Lock Rotary Tool Cut-Off Wheels make it easy to cut through metal. These reinforced cut-off wheels last up to two times longer than typical fiberglass wheels. These wheels can be used for cutting metal conduit and PVC piping, reslotting screw heads, and removing rusty nail heads. The EZ Lock design makes changing accessories as easy as a pull, twist, and release, with no worry of losing a screw or needing a wrench. This pack includes five cut-off wheels.
