These seem quite nice for the price. Have strong double magnet in the base. Each light requires 4 AAA Batteries (Included) . 'Normally' $10 for a pack of 3, but couple of my local Walmarts sell them for $5. YMMV
I am guessing it's total 400 lumens including all the front and side lights.

You both need to find yourselves boyfriends. Instead of spending time on threadcrapping.
"Hyper Tough" is a Walmart house brand. So, any alleged false advertising would reflect badly on WM. These lights are bright, as stated. The cob LED is the brightest (400 lm). It has two settings of brightness selected with 5-click switch. The flashlight w. a single LED is also very bright. Then there are two modes of warning light: solid red and blinking red. The included batteries are alkaline. Magnets are not super-strong but strong enough to hold the light w. batteries in any position. Overall, I think it's a great little work light for $1.66 a piece, if you find them for the cheaper than retail price.

You're taking this too personally. It's a super deal, and I would have gladly grabbed a couple for this price if my local WM had it. That being said, most brightness specs are misleading in the best of cases, and plainly false in many cases.
Do you know what 400 lumen is? It is _very_ bright. No way this super-cheapo flashlight can produce 400 lumens, *maybe* if you're using a fresh, just-charged high-quality Li battery. Forget about it if you're using alkaline batteries -- a 400 lumen LED will require about 3 Amps of current!
About WM's reputation, as much as it is: they list whatever some cheap Chinese manufacturer tells them the specs are. If you think that highly-qualified Walmart lab techs in white coats labor all day measuring the light output of a $1 flashlight... well, it ain't happening.
