Location: Plymouth, i think, i'll just check the A to Z!
found this little gem of a review on the auto express website:

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/product_test/product_test_story.php?id=53518

i have an energizer like the one at the bottom of the page, but without the duo flood. cheapo at £5.99 but then it does the job and if it get busted it's no big deal.

although looking at the reviews i might consider getting a better one when the time comes.

also it worth taking a look at the other reviews on the menu next to 'Product Test' at the top of the page.

As i've now gone back onto back shift/night shift, I've got myself a new torch, and it's AWESOME!!

It's one of those you get for £6/£7 quid at the petrol stations when you buy a certain amount of fuel. It lights up the whole street, and comes with a mains and cigarette lighter re-charger.
