My eyes are not what they used to be and find myself wishing I had a little more light on the subject. Here are a few I'm looking at and any light you guys can recommend would be great. I'd prefer to use lithium batteries (or the option) for long life, lack of leaking, and no storage worries.

I might mix 'n match a couple of small ones with a more normal sized one or two. What do you guy want/use?


Power Vivid® Pocket Flashlight - C. Crane Company (800) 522-8863


Maglite® XL200? LED Flashlight


XT8 Flash

I like the Fenix E05 R2 and the Fenix E11. They use a standard AAA and AA battery and last a really long time. And no expensive batteries to buy.

I love the Lupine Piko TL Mini at 550 lumens. It's very bright and very small. It's rechargeable, has a couple of intensities and is EXPENSIVE. But very cool and works very good. If you need more light then the Lupine Betty TL-S at 2800 lumens. :)

If you need the size of a baseball bat then a Maglite is the way to go. I have those in the cars.
 
Wow!

Lupine Betty is crazy. Thanks for the recommendations.
 
I buy the $1.97 one by the register at Home Depot . Whichever it may be. I buy 2 so I always have a spare . When they die I throw em out and buy another.
 
Great ideas so far, keep 'em coming. I'll probably have a dozen by next week. :)
 
Hahahahahaha!!!! That's too funny!!!
I just bought a headlamp set Joe. Was like $7.
Not only does it have LEDs in it but it also has a magnifying visor and a flip down jewelers loop.
I got it for cartridge alignment . But it could come in handy for anything those old eyes can't see anymore. I know this guy out on Lawn Gisland who needs to get that cartridge aligned. Lmao!!!!
