Go to sam's and get a two pack of the Rocky it's small runs on AAA batteries and puts out 200 lumens you can't beat it for 30.00 for two.

I bought 6 of the small Coleman 120 lumen flashlights off EBAY for $10.00 each. They take AAA batteries, are small and very bright. When Walmart was selling them they were 30 - 40.00 each.

any of these will do what you want and more http://www.4sevens.com/search youtube for nutnfancys reviews. They are awesome little lights. I have a streamlight stylus pro that is in my left pocket all day every day. Weighs nothing and is really bright for what it is. Its pretty amazing how often I use that little light. Take it from me, dont wast your money on just any led flashlight. get a good one that costs a bit more and you will not be sad.

Sams Club Rocky Lights. I took one hog hunting last month and it lit the feeder well enough for a kill at about 60-65 yds when the feeder light failed. Im going to figure out how to join them solidly side by side for my next trip and get 400 lumens of light. They also have tailcap switch, hi and lo settings, and strobe function. Alluminum bodies and best of all they take AAA batteries instead of CR batteries. $29 for a two pack that includes the batteries. Cant beat them.

Streamlight Stinger LED, I just bought one for $85. Its light, little, and puts out a beam similar to a spotlight. 185 lumens.
I highly recommend it.
