My flashlights are always broke within a few days and never as good as what the profs use. I bought exactly the same as the police uses and what I used as I drove the ambulance still it's broke within a short time and the light is never bright. Not as bright as the one the police used as they woke me up at night because they found a bag.
Come on some people sleep at night why waking them up?
I wasted a lot of money on flashlights and better not ask how many I threw away. It's a miracle to me why they don't work. They give me the same feeling as the scales who kept silent as I stood on it. Seems my body is weightless, no fat, no water.
The lantern I use today irls cheap and I have for many years. It is't special made out of plastic and batteries are needed. It fell and you hear something rattle inside but it works. I bought this cheap lamp at a shop named Action and I'm happy I did just regret I didn't't buy some more (no longer for sale) because the lamp and the batteries seem to last forever. During blackouts these small lanterns would be handy
At night, if I let the dog out, I take the latern, which we use in the hallway with me. No bright light shining but good enough to see where I walk and make the little dog follow me. I believe he's afraid in the dark.
The past nights the full moon brightened up the place which was weird because the day/a we're grey and dark.
