I've always used a ton of flashlights, because I operate through the night.

For hand-helds, I have gone toward LED Lenser, and Pelican. I always buy Li-Ion rechargeable lights. I found that the head band lights just don't last more than a year, so I stopped buying those and instead buy "area lighting" by Pelican and Streamlight. Those obviate the need for a hand held, head band, or using your phone, etc. You can save money, or you can have a good light. Or you can waste money and still have a bad light.

Brands that I avoid now are Olight (just awful), and Mag Lite (weak, heavy). My favorite hand-held area light is now about 10 years old, and is the old school HID Lite Box. It uses the high beam arc light from Mercedes Benz, and is bright as hell.
