Recommended flashlights? (feddit.uk)

What lightweight, practical flashlights would people recommend?

I want something that I could use while camping, dog walking, and general day-to-day tasks (finding something under the bed for example). Currently I use my phone torch, which isn't particularly practical. My previous (battery powered) torches have died after too short a space of time - I want something that will last.

One with a clip would be handy, so I could attach it to a cap.

I see lots of ones online with insane lumens. 1000 lumens seems like overkill for my purposes!

Not too worried about price (within reason!)

@OmegaMouse Sofirn SC21 Pro, Olight Baton 3, or anything else with the same form factor as the SC21. Yes, the SC21 Pro is 1000 lumens on max, which is nice to have for brief use. The user interface is intuitive, but gives you many extra settings if you wish and the brightness is completely controllable.

USB-C charging, replaceable, standard, non proprietary battery (16340), bidirectional pocket clip (can use with hat) that sits comfortably in any pocket without poking out. A solid light.

Thanks for the suggestion! I actually haven't bought a torch yet, so I appreciate the recommendation :) The SC21 Pro does look like it would meet my needs

@OmegaMouse it was definitely a well researched purchase for me - never hurts to take your time :)
