Yeah like "flashlight is pretty bright but the switch quit after 2 months" and if I see several reviews talling about failed switches I kmow what's up. A good product will have a 1 star review talking about "flashlight tastes terrible and hurt my teeth."

"USB Battery is very large, but takes very long to charge all the way." on a battery that supports both USB-Micro and USB-C Fast Charging.

Fast charging refuses to work in my car ๐Ÿ‘Ž

Could be any number of things from the charger not being USB-C PD to the sun overheating your phone and causing the safeties to stop or slow down the charging. I haven't actually found a car charger with a buckboost converter in it to provide higher voltages even when the circuit board is available online for hobby projects.

"SENT ME TO ER, and denied return. I don't know why guys enjoy flashlights so much for "playtime", but this one ain't it, had to go to er when gf got a little too rough with it."
