Where Can I Get an Older Duracell Two Battery Flashlight?

I've been buying Subject flashlights for years, but they seem either
discontinued or scarce. The one I buy is about 5x2.5x0.75", squarish,
orangish trim around the light and a dark (black) handle. One of the
things I've liked about them is that the boxy design allow you to put it
in your mouth and point it while having hands free.

Have you ever considered one of those head lamps?

they now come in LED form which work nicely and use less energy and
maybe safer than taking a chance of getting one of those stuck in your
throat?

I have to agree - LED lights are the way to go. The local Lowes has a
2 D-cell Mag-LED (MagLite with 3 Watt LED) for $15 this weekend. The
mini-MagLED (uses 2 AA cells) is about $10-$12 with batteries and a
case that fits on your belt. I've had the equivalent of one of these
for years (original mini-MagLite + aftermarket LED replacement for the
bulb), just not as bright as the current 3 watt LED version. I don't
hold the mini-mag in my teeth because I don't like the taste of metal.

The local Home Depot has a 4-pack of LED head lights for $10. Lowes
had a 2-pack (more LEDs in each light) for $10. There are a range of
beam widths and brightnesses in the LED head lights, so check out more
than one offering.

I have three, but like the old ones for just ordinary use.

See my post above a minute ago. Yes, I like the LED too. However, for

other purposes, I've liked the ones I'd like to find. Maybe Duracell has
a web site. Maybe they have an LED version? :)

I only have one.

If you want it, be sure to say you're the REAL W. eWatson so I don't
