I've been using a Surefire E1L for 10 years 8 months. In February of 2009, it cost me $104.50 delivered.
"Knock on wood." I don't want to lose the fugger now.

These are excellent and have my recommendation. In my household there are four of the S1R Baton II, two of the S2R Baton II, and one of the Baton Pro 2000. I do suggest purchasing the Olight L-Dock Recharge Kit for mounting on your hallway wall. The S1R Baton II is definitely the more useful and likely to be clipped in your back pocket as it just sort of disappears 'til it is required. [ Linked Image] My daughter has three with her.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

I've carried one of these with my work keys and ID for 8 years. Bought a spare but the original one is still going strong. Plenty bright with a AAA but much brighter with a rechargeable 10440. A small copper wire ring needs to be installed in the head to use the 10440 but the difference is amazing. ITP A03

Do you remove the batteries to recharge them, or just plug it in?

Straight off Hunts' Tinder profile. I'm sorry to burst your infatuation with my 'hungitude', but I must explain..... I carry my wallet, extra 1911 mag and flashlight in my left front pocket. Keys, 3 pocket knives and chapstick in the right. I do this intentionally, to take the girls attention away from my small 'package'. It ain't named Wee Willy Winky, without cause.....grin

I am surprised nobody rocks an Olight. They make a multitude of amazing products...Everyone in my shop at work carries one kind or another. All purchased ourselves and converted by seeing what they can do daily.

I modified an IWB holster to attach to the top of my boot and pack my trusty 20yo 6-cell maglight on my ankle.
But seriously, I'm not scared of the dark so my cell phone takes care of most of my lighting duties. I have flashlights, work lights, spot lights and even an endoscope stashed in the shop and truck if the need for more lumens arises.

I really liked my Fenix ED12 iirc, but when it quit I got a $20 off Amazon and like it a lot. Uses AA and with the rechargeable Lithium Ion it is absolutely great. It has a 650 lumen output on high, and is just a bit bigger than the Fenix ED12 that had a lot less light. Lumitop LED
