Comment on why does every single flashlight have multiple settings that you have to scroll through?

4D batteries just doesn’t make sense in 2024. That was for incandescent lights, modern LEDs are brighter and use a small fraction of that power. You could still have the form factor if you really wanted a giant flashlight for self defense or something, but a pair of AA’s if you really don’t want rechargeables would be more than enough for a long life flashlight.

But any LiIon battery is going to far outperform alkaline batteries.
