Brightest flashlight I have ever owned, will light up the racoons at 200 feet.
Dimensions are about 5 inches long and 1 inch diameter.

DITTO ON THIS 3 PACK. (mine was $20, you sure yours was $12?)
I bought a 3 pack, and after having a "I can see the light-gasm" at home, went back the next day and bought 3 more for a total of 12 flashlights.
Stunning bright at 200 honest lumens (and I'm a scuba diver who KILLS for bright lights underwater in the murky depths) For dive lights I have 600 lumen and 850 lumen that were $200 each.
For 3 of these Costco Flashlites for $20, I put one in every car/trailer/truck-camper hung one by every door in the house and out in the barn.
You simply can't beat this as a $7 each flashlite that runs on common AAA batteries. I double dog dare you to stare into in on high setting, and yes it'll light up the top of a 120 foot doug fir tree stunningly well..........can't make more of an endorsement from a light hungry scuba diver than this.......pretty cool they have a strobe feature on them too that I used to scare the crap out of kids on Halloween night.
They're Not on the Costco Website, bought mine about 3 weeks ago and have given half of mine away to Mom and Friends as a "here you really need one of these" gifts...
Sorry for the long soapbox rave about them, but yes they're that good. I'd go back and buy another 3-4 packages of them for more stocking stuffer / gifts, but I already bought out their last 3!
Heck it even comes with 9 duracell batteries, those would be ~$7-8 on thier own.
Found 'em on the web for double Costco's Price:
