Emergency lighting

Maglite makes their 2 or 3 AA flashlights so if you unscrew the head far enough, it comes off and the LED/bulb works as sort of an electric candle.

When it's really dark, you don't need much light to get around. If you can see colors, that's really as bright as you'll ever need.

The advantage of the cheaper, dimmer LED's is longer battery life.

While I appreciate your suggestion and thank you for it, I used to be a big Mag light supporter, after my experience with their latest LED Mini Mag, I would never buy another of their products.

there is also the telescoping candle powered lanterns. the candles are long burning and in winter time they will produce enough heat to keep a snow cave, or equivilent, just below freezing even in very cold weather. (25 below C when my dad and i got snowed in).

I have one, and while you could read with it, my 64 year old eyes are demanding more in the way of comfort. (They must be female )

Zebra light headlamp?

Its pure flood beam IMO is perfect for area lighting and general hands free use plus it comes in a warm tint. Its extremely light and comfortable to wear for long periods and has long runtimes. They also work great as a reading light.
