I have five mag light and keep one in each of my automobile . I have own other type but they never seem to last so you get what you pay for . I also own one of the mag-lite flashlight that you recharge and while it be kinda high in price I love this one and it be so bright you wouldnt believe it . so you can see that I be a true believer in the mag-lite and if you be interested in the rechargeable the cost be around $ 110.00 and they be usually sell at place that sell law enforcement supplies . one more thing and that be they be make in the USA !!
