LED Flashlight

I bought a good one last year at COSCO. It's not a mini. It uses a single large LED. It's about the size of a 2-3 cell Maglite. It holds 9 AA batteries, in a holder.
It's a Coast 550. Power is adjustable.
Light beam is adjustable and is very strong. I don't remember the measure but I can clearly illuminate beyond the mailbox and so on. That is over 1000 ft. You can clearly see everything within the beam and the scatter. I mean clearly see, like in daylight.
I have not been able to find another one but understand they are available on the net.
Cost was less than 50 bucks. Iscrewed up and didn't keep the pkg or I could have gotten a smaller one, via mail for free. I've got a Maglite LED 3 cell and it is nowhere near the power. I've got four or five little ones around including one with about 9 LEDs that isn't worth the three dollars I paid, or so, for them.

It may be 1,000 CP. It is way more than the expensive rechargeables, I've looked at. Closes rival was 800 CP, rechargeable, I think for well over a hundred bucks.
