I've seen two approaches to finding a flashlight in the dark:
(1) Make it glow or attach glow bands or paint with glow paint
Garrity makes a plastic body flashlight that is all "Glow in the dark". It doesn't glow very long and I've had mixed results with the paint too.
(2) Have the "bulb" or an LED glow and use some battery
I know the PALight does this and Eveready has a "Find Me" flashlight that has a little, blinking, red LED on the body of a regular incandescent flashlight.
What is your experience with the best solution for making your flashlight easy to find on the night stand or in a tent at night?
Ideally, I'd like to have a AA powered light (that leaves out the PALight and the D cell powered Eveready) that is easy to find. Got ideas?
...and, of course, I want it to be a LED light.
