I intended to reply to this in my earlier SB...
I have one I picked last year (9.99). It came with both mains and ciggy
lighter charger. Unlike most of them, it has an automatic charge circuit, so
you can leave it permanently plugged in on charge. Plenty of lumens, but they
don't output it for long... 20 to 40 minutes at the most, depending upon
wattage and battery amp hour.
