I dont need a flashlight, I have excellent night vision.

I keep a yellow flashlight I found in a box, in the stormshelter of my old house...It never works when I need it to though....Which is why I have excellent night vision.

The battery life is a little more than an hour on these if they are not LED. The batteries are expensive but on the Surefire website you can buy a box of 12 batteries for around 20 dollars.

Recently I checked out this new flashlight Maglite made called the Maglite XL100. http://www.maglite.com/maglite_xl100_led.asp It's pretty good for only $40 bucks. I've been playing around with it and wow it's pretty bright and has many modes you can use. I really love this light now.

I picked this 22led light up from Rite-Aid for 5 bux. It was some "as seen on tv" flashlight. Its brighter than more expensive flash lights I've owned. Made of aluminum too so its tough.
