I've picked them up for £15 before on Ebay. They really are reliable n my experience though.

These are also good - and cheaper - http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalo ... ps-sellers
They can also be used as a charger.

I got some off Ebay to give to the kids. I paid £8 each and they have 3 settings for brightness.

I am very happy with them and kept 3 back for myself. I also have 4 wind up radios that have torches on them plus a wind up torch that doubles as a charger for phones and stuff.

Wind up beats batteries all the time in my book. Until I run out of arms, then I am switching back to batteries.
