Which LED Flashlight Do You Use?
An anonymous reader asks: "There are now a LOT of LED flashlights on the market. A quick Google turns up 59,000 hits. Some of these flashlights are pretty ballsy. The LightWave 4000 contains 10 LEDs and offers one month of continuous light output. The Photon MicroLight is bright as all getout and goes on your keychain. The EverLED will go in a MagLight or any other high quality existing flashlight. There is even an entire web forum devoted to modifying existing flashlights to use LEDs. What experiences have Slashdot readers had with LED flashlights, and what recommendations would you make to a choosey buyer?"

I like the light built into my key. Of course, it's a little spendy.
I love the linked image!!
It has a tiny picture of a hand holding the flashlight, labeled "actual size". Do they mean that it's actually the ~1/2 inch size I see on my screen, or does it mean that they aren't using a stunt double super mega-large hand to illustrate the size?

I found these guys a REI.com on sale for $7 bucks a peice, I bought three of them about two years ago and am still on my first one. I put it on my keychain and use it at least once a day for finding stuff in my car at night, plugging and unplugging cables behind dark desks, and pushing it really hard into the palm of my hand so i can see my veins.
Pretty cool stuff...
