Too bad the reviews went to garbage. I bought quite a few of the costco lights when they were in 3 packs and they have all been great. I also bought the 1000 lumen and 1300 lumen lights and the 1000 lumen was actually brighter.

Those Dorcy lights have gotten a lot of good reviews over the years.

I've been calling those "Photon Bazookas" since my Navy days.

I have these also and they drain the batteries after about 2 months of sitting somewhere. They still work, but for some reason every time I need one, the batteries are dead.

I've completely given up on ANY of the lites that use 3xAAA batteries because I find that they chew thru the batteries during use (very limited run time) and during storage. I stick to my collection of 2xAA MiniMags that I upgraded to led --- they may not be the brightest lites out there, but at least they don't drain batteries during storage and have 30+ hours run time (they seem to last forever for car/truck/dog walking). A 24 pack of AAs at HF for $4-5 when on sale keeps them fed --- I tend to rotate batteries when a remote goes dead - fresh batteries into MiniMag, used ones into remote - just to keep them topped up. I'm still amazed that I've got a 3xD MagLite that I got when I bought the house 17 years ago still on the factory batteries - upgraded to the led bulb after ~6 years - damn thing still going, granted it doesn't get much use....

I have several flashlights but when the lights go out we tend to use the 4" florescent fixtures. Lots of light, 2 to a pack, runs on 4 double A batteries. have tested to see how long they will run but have been using the same 4 batteries every time the lights go out and only had to replace them once as they finally got too old. Seem to remember I got them at Lowes for fairly cheap as well.
Other thing that is nice they also have built in slots on the back so they are easy to hang up. Will be putting one in the container shortly, open door flip switch bingo more than enough light.
