Hi Everyone, thanks In advance, hoping the collective minds here will have a good recommendation.
I have been using the HP1 for a few years now, on my 3rd one. First one I bought was $7.50 on Amazon, now they are $24 lol.
ive always like the light, it fits in pocket, the lighting of it suits what I need with the focusing beam, I like that it only has one setting on or off no strobe, and using a single AA battery it's always been easy to keep lit (there are always aa on the job site or even at the gas station). At the old price it was almost disposable if I were to loose one, I wouldn't be upset.
although after probably a hundred batteries and 20 time through the washing machine/dryer in my pocket it doesn't seem to be performing like it used to. Seems dim and batteries die quickly.
can someone recommend another light basically the same (definitely not less light though) but maybe better quality and hopefully rechargeable? I don't want something with a battery that needs to come out to charge. Cost isn't a huge deal, but don't want to go crazy.
