Some use rechargeable batteries, while others are powered by disposable batteries. They can be used in a variety of applications, including nightlights, traffic direction, and inspection lights. They may be handheld or mounted on a tripod.</p>

It is typically recommended that you purchase a flashlight with a long run time. Some flashlights have electronic controls that allow the user to select the level of output and change the mode. These controls may be operated by buttons, magnets, or sliders. Some manufacturers also include a USB port for recharging.</p>

Some flashlights use fluorescent bulbs, while others use LEDs. They can also vary in quality. Some are more energy efficient than other bulbs, while others offer better color rendering.</p>

Some models are designed to withstand water, and some have a textured handle.</p>

This is perfect for outdoor activities. The width of the beam can range from wide to focused. Some manufacturers offer a "total internal reflection" assembly, which eliminates the need for a reflector. These are great for law enforcement, hunters, and cave explorers.</p>
