So it's been a couple of years since Eveready released their 1D "economy" light and Rayovac has the VB1DLED (which I've found online but not actually seen in person). There's also an Eveready 1D light sold with a 6v LED lantern that works, but flickers horribly for some reason.
Has a half-way decent 1D flashlight been brought to market yet?
I look at my Quark and Zebra AA lights as proof that a single alkaline cell can do some really nice things, but I don't see anyone making 1D lights that aren't made as cheaply as possible.
Is there just no market for 1D lights that might actually survive a fall?
(Disclaimer, I'm still using a handful of the PR bulbs from the Eveready "economy" lights that I purchased a couple of years ago. They work surprisingly well when transferred into more durable hosts that protect the bulb from the battery).
--flatline
