Great Values at Auction on Cheap LEDs
You've seen the commercials, where they falsely claim their lights are the only ones to have the irritating flash setting ... my only complaint is that most lights do (i.e. a simple high, low and off would be great).
There are, of course, better and more efficient LED flashlights available, but for a few bucks? These zoomable lights are an outstanding value -- there's probably half a dozen around here, and I've yet to spend what a single decent light would cost.
I can break anything, but these have stood up to plenty of abuse with minimal failure (e.g. two iffy switches, and one dead bulb).

Very well made solution, for single drive use ...
... but two (or more) m.2 drives in Raid 0 via PCIe would be perfect, despite being yet another concept that chokes Microsoft's latest/greatest OS up. I will reluctantly click away $300+ on Samsung's largest/fastest NVMe, even though striping a pair wouldn't saturate the bus (i.e. three/four cheaper/smaller drives would leave money to spare by comparison, while still increasing performance).
Gotta say, beachaudio had this card for the lowest price in the world (as of the time of my purchase), and I haven't seen 'em fail yet -- packaged well, and shipped immediately; they even caught/corrected an error w/ my address. Very happy w/ their service, and the Asus product I rec'd from them as well.
Despite the ungodly speeds that raiding offers, I reckon the fastest consumer drive connected in this manner is plenty evil all by itself: I'm just not willing to risk my shiny new drive w/in some unknown card ... or the system board, or the CPU, or my first ever DDR4 modules, or ... realistically? Those differences seen in benchmarks will rarely be noticed during normal use, not that my own use normally is, and I will also have three 2.5" SSDs neatly tucked in a corner to do a good bit of the heavy lifting.
Insane as this might sound? That array of top-performers will -still- be slower than the 512GB 950 in this card, but it's inclusion should extend the life of, and lower the operating temperatures w/in, the fastest computer I've ever actually had permission to touch.
SoOo ... finally ... I get to be cool, too ~;-)

NOT FIT for Intended Purpose
Not the seller's fault, but this only LOOKED like a good product. Barely fits my larger hand, and flimsy plastic gives dangerously under pressure. I consider them unfit for their intended purpose, unless limited to the smallest and softest (e.g. roses).
I thought the idea of a carabiner looping under might be handy, if it didn't slap my knuckles with every hard snip ... not that it accomplished many: The blade was dented and cracked by a 3/8" Autumn Olive branch, within the first fifteen minutes of use.
I suspect this was designed by an engineer that has never actually held or used tools. I've already ordered a Felco 9 pruner (the left-handed version of their Swiss-made ergonomic model, which should fit my XL hand well, and has replaceable parts).
Yes, these Fiskars were 1/4th the price, but they weren't worth their first penny to me: Sometimes cheap tools are a bargain, but only if they can actually get the job done.
