Scary isn't it ? The first one I bought cost two or three pounds, now I buy them in the £stores, five on a card for a quid

The only thing I would say is that they aren't all waterproof, and they don't all come with a lock button to keep it switched on.

cheers,
Toddy

Pound store batteries don't last long... fine if it's just for a keychain, but could be significant if you rely on it out in the wilds.

i'd spotted that yesterday....
anybody ever bought anything from great4camping?

No, but I've bought loads of the little torches from DE (well over a 100 by now), I give them out a little xmas prezzies to the nurses I work with. They all have the little switch and to be honest the batteries last very well indeed; one I hang on paracord around my neck at camps is still going now after about two years.

i have a few of the rectangular ones from the pound shops.

That's the same model that "Lighthound" gives away free with every purchase.
