    What flashlight for home power outages for elderly

    I bought my dad Black & Decker's "Storm Station" - it's an all-in-one unit that contains a radio, a power inverter with 12VDC plugs (for charging cell phones), a room light and a basic removeable rechargeable flashlight.

Why don't you introduce him to a 3 or 4D Mag with a drop-in? Either incan or LED, I would bet that with a little work you could put together a...
