First Impressions
After waiting for what seemed like a decade, my new novelty 'Glove Light' torch finally arrived upon the doorstep to my frantic ripping of the crap plastic bag packaging.
This little parcel didn't actually ship from Hong Kong as stated on the auction lot, no this flew in from Dar es Salaam which is near Tanzania or somewhere? Who cares! I opened the package.......

What a confounded pile of tut! The outer box was cheap and crap looking. 
Inside the 'Glove' (if you can call it that) looked like the left overs from a surgical support bandage and the little LED's on the fingers pointless.
That may sound a little harsh but that's how it is. 
Not worth the £1.95 asking price at all. More like 50p fire sale stock to be honest.


It's such a bad piece of kit that I had considered leaving this review unwritten. Sigh...it's bloody awful.


Testing



Hmm, as far as performance goes, this strap on Flashlight bandage is absolutely crap. Yes it does offer some kind of modest illumination but it's only really effective at very close range. The concept of using your fingers as torches is a strange one. It never really feels quite right somehow.
I'm finding it hard to find an everyday application for this glove. It's simply pointless. 

Rating: ✅ 1 out of 5 
Hmm I give it a 1 for novelty value and nothing more.
I won't be daft enough to buy something like this again!
It's utter tat from the devil's toilet bowl -
