Walgreens has the ideal LED light.

- Machined aluminum
- Cylindrical
- 3 1/2" length
- 3 "AAA" batteries in tandem
- 9 white LEDs
- ON/OFF push switch
- Weather proof
- About $5.00

I got a bunch of them.


I have a couple of lights like that. They're very bright. One of them
is often what I reach for when I need a good flashlight.


For a penlight-type flashlight, I like the Streamlight Stylus (3 AAAA
cells). Great for detail work, medical uses etc.
