I have one but rarely use it lol. I actually haven't ever used it as a flash, but have as a light... I used it here to backlight at 1/4 strength... http://365project.org/ozziehoffy/365/2013-04-19 ... it's sitting at around 7/8ish o'clock about 30cm roughly away.
Like @ozziehoffy , I also have one but barely use it. Maybe I haven't learned how to take full advantage of it, but when I do actually use it, I think it makes a world of difference. Here is the last one I used it for:
you just might die if you don't get one. really.....
I felt the same way, but this is the only one I've used it on so far. However, my plan was to use it for bugs and critters and the macro -- and its been winter -- no bugs/critters around. So, I'm hoping to get some more use out of it.
Oh, and I bought a super cheapy one on Amazon.

What does a "ring flash" do that just a regular flashlight won't?? I have played with taking my photos in a dark room using only a flashlight. The effect is unique. Try it!! Use your tripod cause you'll find you don't have enough hands. =)
@mary1440 Interesting. Maybe I will try that later today. I've put on a baseball cap and used a clamp light attached to that but had not thought about a flashlight in a dark room. I'm just running out now to look at your project to see if I can spot the flashlight in a dark room photos. I'll be back soon :)
Ah yes, much enlightened now....thank you all. @amyamoeba the only problem is every time Amy posts something here it seems to cost me money!! Have only just managed to stop my hubby shaking his head about the backdrop....... :0)
