Great Flashlight

I may have posted on this before. I don't remember. It's an age thing. What was I ... oh, yeah. Flashlight.

I ordered four (4) angle head, AA flashlights last week and they arrived today. They are smaller versions of the Army angle head flashlight. I am really impressed with these little guys. They are made of heavy plastic construction. Have compression rings in the screw joints to keep out water, come with four (4) colored lenses and a spare bulb. They are incredibly bright little lights, too.

These are not high dollar lights so I have no misgivings that they will last and last but for $2.63 they are a pretty danged good value. Here's where I got them.

Nice! I had a couple of these a few years ago and they lasted until my son (in his misspent youth) took them out with his friends camping and "lost" them. I figure some of those kids still are using my mini-lights.
For about 50X what we paid for these, I have had my Streamlight SX20 since 1995, replaced the rechargeable battery once (and never replaced the bulb), and I use it nearly every day to peer into places where people would rather I not look (in manufacturing plants, I mean) and I use it around the house when it is not working. I see where the SX20 is obsolete...ho hum, another off-topic digression....
These little mini-lights are great in that you don't worry about using them or getting them scratched up.
