This is unusual. With the usage time you got, I assume it's an LED
torch. D cells haven't been around for ages. LED torches tend to take
AA or the Lithium Ion equivalent. Is this a home made torch or a
conversion?


Please read some of my other posts, under
similar subject lines. I've explained all
this. And I thought clearly so.


Why would you think I or anyone else has the time to read every single
post?


The light was made in China. Sold by
Dollar General, in USA. Was not modified
at all after purchase. Cost $2.50 US
dollars, and came with one carbon zinc
battery.


And an LED? I didn't know they even still made Zinc Carbon batteries. They really are ****, very small capacity. And leak in not too many years.
