Hello KeepingItLight, it would be good if you posted this query in the Recommend Me A Light Forum. It is off topic for the purposes of this thread's subject matter.

Thanks, Bill. Probably you are right. My question, however, is not about what flashlight to buy. I have already made that decision (Zebralight H600Fw). My query is about the reliability of circuit-controlled flashlights in general, and about the reliability of Zebralights in particular. My sense from reading this forum is that circuit-controlled flashlights fail much more often than the simple incandescents from yesteryear. Yet they cost much, much more.
What do the respondents of this poll say? Most of the time you expect a light to last longer than 6, 12, or 18 months, but in case one does not, is that just par for the course? Do you take the failure of your Zebralight as an "acceptable" event, which merely means you must go out and buy another Zebralight to replace it? Or does it cause you to switch brands?
