I need to get a couple of flashlights for some people who like to read on the road, so I'm looking for something comparable to the Pal Gold I bought a year or so ago, which is an LED light that runs off a 9v battery (which I can find cheap) seemingly forever.
That being then, and this being now, I figured the landscape has changed and wondered if there better lights available (LED or otherwise):
- comparable to the $20 for a Pal
- last > 200 hours (on low for a Pal)
- uses a cheap and easily found battery
Tips and links to related discussions or current reviews would be appreciated. Most of the reviews I found were for products back in 2000. Brightness seems to be a big deal here (in this forum) but my main thing is longevity and cost.
Thanks.
