I purchase a Tac light from Walmart about six to nine months ago and I dropped acolyte small drop and it stopped working. From waist-high to the ground it should not have broken. Contact Bell and Howell and they refuse to replace it because I don't have the receipt of where I purchased it. It really shouldn't matter if the flashlight has a lifetime warranty or guarantee. Another scam I would recommend you purchase this product unless your paper receipt last till the day of Resurrection. I will never purchase another one of this companies products. This light was supposed to have been basically almost indestructible any breaks from my hand to the ground. I purchase cheaper flashlights and have dropped them from as far as a second-story building and they work fine afterwards. This is supposed to be made of airplane light metals bulshit! Bulshit! Bulshit!!!
