Give the pic some drama! Drive a 7.3 over it with DS front wheel flattening it. Like a lion with his foot on a gazelle.

The one I bought lasted all of two minutes the first time I needed it on the side of the road at 2 a.m. and has not illuminated since. I thought I was the only one that purchased a dud.

My three have been working just fine. Used them several times over the past year. You could have gotten your money back...

The made in China doesn't really count. Aside from my shoes, watch and ford truck, most is made in China. Heck, half of my 7.3 says made in Mexico or Canada..

My Bunn coffee maker is made in USA, and a lot of my Made in Mexico and Made in Canada parts on the truck have been replaced with Made in USA parts. I'm doing my bit - and all of my lights still work.

Oh well, I have a new drop light project. Ripped apart an old all-in-one printer/scanner/whatever and pulled the CFL tube and power supply out of it. It gets pretty damn bright! Just need to find a clear rigid tube of some sort to stuff it in . . .
