I have a Maglite Solitaire with me today 2018-07-20_03-34-01 by Poncho 65, on Flickr
The only thing I would change about it would be adding a clicky switch instead of the hard one...
Hard switch? I'm not terribly well-versed in flashlights, so I could use an explanation. And I sure do the yellow EvoGrip scales!I firmly that a flashlight powered by alkaline batteries (such as the Streamlight Stylus Pro in the middle) is a key component of every emergency preparedness kit and survivalist bag. That's especially true if you live in an area that's susceptible to power outages. Alkaline batteries can be changed quickly and allow you to use reduced power for devices whose batteries cannot be quickly swapped. However, the little keychain lights like the Lumintop Nano Frog (at left) and Olight I1R2-EOS are hard to beat for typical everyday use.

I think in this case a picture explains it better.
I got the little pink warning notice when I decided to post on this thread. Seems like it is unpoopular. Lots of flashlight lovers here, but not so many posts lately.
I have a handful of decent quality flashlights. I appreciate them, and use them regularly if not daily. If I find something objectively better than what I have, then I’ll upgrade, but I’m not getting new flashlights very often in the scheme of things, and I tend not to rotate them.
