Quality Flashlights
You all know that I have an affinity for flashlights. I have 2 in my car, one or two with me at all times, a flashlight in almost every room of the house. If I’m walking through a store I always take a moment to look at the new styles of flashlights that are available. I love the new LED flashlights that are available everywhere. It’s one thing to grab a flashlight when you need it and find that batteries are dead, but when a bulb goes bad - that just gets me. I have had a lot of luck with the LED lighting that is available these days - never had to replace a bulb with one of these.
I have found however that when you pick up a cheap three 
dollar flashlight as an impulse buy at the counter you are definitely getting what you pay for. One I bought at an auto parts store last week is always useless - not sure what exactly is wrong with it, but it’s basically falling apart. I have found that the higher quality lights cost a bit more, but then I have no worries about them working when I need them.
Surfing for new LED flashlights I found this cool pink one online, and while there I found they have underwater rated dive lights that I may have to get chuck for his birthday, then maybe he’ll take me on his next scuba trip.
