Currently my nightsand flashlight is a SF E2T-MV with a 16550. I am waiting for a Nitecore i4000R in the mail to see if it will replace it. Before that, it was a 20 year old SF E2D (LED).

Switched to a Thrunite Archer 2A V3 because I wanted a tail cap momentary on/off function for bumps in the night. The tail cap switch is also quicker and easier to find and operate in the middle of the night. Plenty of versatility with light levels from .2 to 500 lumens and it has a strobe option with good runtimes with two readily available AA batteries.

Got one for the wife to keep on her side of the bed too. Seems like an excellent light for $24.64. These will now be our dedicated bedroom nightstand lights. The TN4A' will become general purpose utility lights.

A Nitecore EC21 is on permanent nightstand duty - the red secondary is really useful in the middle of the night, and instant access to both moonlight and turbo makes it quite versatile.

It's usually joined by whatever torch I was using that evening. At the moment, that's a Malkoff MD2 with the SST version of the M61L, which is fantastic.

The Manker E14 III with the 18650 tube. It is for when I need to grab a light and go outside to check on the backyard in the middle of the night (foxes and weasels). The Acebeam TK16 is the backup and more for inside use. Their UI is similar enough so I don't have to think.
