Looking for a cheap flashlight ($15-30)

[sjesper]

Hello.

I am looking for a cheap flashlight that i can fit in my pocket. I have been looking at the following:
- $15 - UltraFire C8 Cree XM-L T6 1200 Lumen LED Flashlight,Free shipping
- UltraFire C8 1300LM CREE XM L T6 LED Flashlight Torch 2x18650 Charger | eBay
- XinTD C8 V4 XM-L2 T6 18650 Flashlight [XinTD C8 V4 XM-L2] - $29.95 : Led Flashlight-International Outdoor Store

But to be honest i don't have much knowledge about flashlights. So what would you recommend i should buy?

UltraFire C8 Cree XM-L T6 1200lm is a good choice

I'm got a Convoy M1 and I really like it. There's a link to a review in my signature

The Xintd C8 is a good practical light. Some other choices you may want to consider are flashlights from the convoy range available on fasttech. I have a convoy c8 and L2, both great lights.

Edit: A c8 would be a tad bulky for pocket carry. It's certainly doable but it isn't really an ideal light for carrying around. Something like the convoy M1 or convoy s2/s3 which are thin tube lights would be a better choice, depending on whether you would like to sacrifice throw/runtime etc.

What are you looking for in your light other than a small form factor? Flood, throw, runtime, heatsinking, modes?
