Here's another fairly cheap but very useful little device. This particular model has 28 LEDs and is very bright for its size and weight. I've found it useful in a lot of situations.
I've had mine for only a month or so, so I can't say from experience yet, but the batteries are supposed to last for about 10 hours in this. That's one of the virtues of LEDs.
This model has both floodlight and flashlight functions. It has a magnet on the back so you can attach it to any handy steel surface. Also has a little hook so you can hang it in various situations. Or you can lay it on the ground or floor, with light shining upward. I find it replaces a common 120-volt plug-in drop light in many situations mechanics must deal with. I used it the other day to illuminate a mower deck that I was removing and dismantling from a lawn tractor. Much easier to move it around than a drop light, doesn't get hot to the touch, and no cord to fuss with.
Amazon sells these for $7.58. That's cheap. But I thought I"d mention that just a couple weeks back I saw a similar one (different make) for sale at a local franchise hardware store for about $4.50 - though, who knows? the quality of the LEDs or the durability of the cheaper unit may not be comparable.
