I've carried a simple hi/lo/strobe/zoom pocket flashlight for years, I don't even know the lumen rating. I've misplaced it and wish to replace it but here's where the confusion starts. I've seen quite a few listings rated between 500-850 lumens selling for up to £90 and then there are thousands of others with claimed ratings of 1000, 2000 and more for just a few pounds (I even saw one rated in N/m). Then you have the "military tactical" type advertised as "get this now before they are banned" with a picture showing the flashlight illuminating the landscape for many miles.

I'm just looking for a simple hi/lo/strobe/zoom pocket flashlight which doesn't break the bank, it can be AA, AAA or 18650.
