I had about 4 that did not work and one where the bad snapped off.

I've bought a lot of finger lights over the years and expect some to not work. Sounds about the right amount of failures for 80 lights. If the band came off, many times it is possible to put it back in the slot.

That is still a good percentage -- 6% not working. I was buying 20 for $10 and had at least 5 that didn't work every time I bought them -- 25%. Plus they are so much cheaper that I was ready to accept a few not working.

I had similar problems. About 1/4 of the box were turned on when I received them, so the lights were dim. A handful broke because they were made with really thin plastic.

I also received a defective one, it seems these are quite commonly defective.

The one that was sent to me was constantly quitting and was not very usable. Perhaps if you found one in working order, that would be feasible.

I have purchased about 10 of these for various projects and businesses, 1 out of those 10 had the same problem, just return/exchange it for a new one.

Wow, It's weird how some people get a good one and some get a bad one. The one I received today worked perfect.

I used mine, and one of mine also broke right off. You can't press to hard or they break.

Ours worked just fine and never had an issue. I would guess it is a small number, which can happen with any product.

It did work, but I ended up getting two replacements because they kept shorting out, and now my last replacement doesn't work.

No, the one I got worked right away. They are a really good company and I'm sure would help if you contact them. Maybe you just got a bad one?

Most of mine have. I've had a couple that would go out, but if I shake or remove and reinstall them, they come back on.

I had a couple of them do that also. Never worked again correctly. Personally I wasn't happy with them.
