A friend has a good torch, it is LED, small lightweight, and you can change the beam and it flashes.  She cannot remember where she got it.
I need one and have googled them, but I wonder if you can advise me whats best.  Regards  Mrs Bouquet

I bought INFRAY torches :

Amazon - pack of two.   Insanely bright, choice of wide beam or spotlight, and high intensity / medium intensity / flashing.   To put the brightness in perspective, you can even still see the beam very obviously on the ceiling of a brightly sunlit room!   Really compact and not heavy.  Uses AAA batteries and they seem to last reasonably well.

The personal HGB recommendation is backed up by the fact that when my original two were 'borrowed' by family members I replaced them with exactly the same again!

The ad claims a RRP of £silly but got them for about fifteen pounds for the two - not cheap but in my view worth it.
