Fenix do some rechargeable torches, not cheap but very well made and the more expensive ones are bloody bright.

Well that was rather apt.

Just recharged my one and nope not working.

so either the battery is dead, the bulb has gone or the switch is knackered.

They do several models depending on what you want, or at least the size of your purse.

Although I don't have a Fenix, I have had one on my amazon wish list for a while now.
PD35 I believe.

I've got one of those. It sits in my torch box and is almost never used. Much prefer the Olight S2 which lives in my pocket all the time. https://www.olightstore.uk/s2r-baton-ii.html

Olight m2 warrior for me. All olight torches appear to be very good quality. Dropped, submerged, frozen, all without issue.

LED Lenser for me. I think it’s a p2 or something, sits nicely in my pocket for EDC, and used every day ‘cos I start work during the night :lol:

Still rocking the Nebo Inspector, I'll admit its long (2x AAA) but I don't like button cells for lights or twisters...... The only thing I'd change is to loose the strobe because I don't see the point.

Only just replaced the batteries in the first one, mind you they're both getting a decent workout at this time of year.
