Anyone know of a simple on / off led flashlight that's USB rechargable? My mom is asking for one for Christmas this year and is tired of the 3 and 5 mode ones she has (high, med, low, red, strobe). She wants a simple on and off LED flashlight only.
Any recommendations?

I just got a Nebo Slim+ as a gift and really like it. It is rechargeable and it can also be used as a battery bank to recharge your phone if needed. https://nebo.acgbrands.com/en_US/slim.htmlEdit to add: I have had this a little over a week, so take that into consideration. But so far, really like the size and function.

But size is very important to know Small to medium sized. I started going through the rechargables on their site (didn’t finish) but the few I got through all had multiple modes. Like high, low, strobe, etc. I’ll keep going through them as I’ve been a fan of the couple of streamlights I have.

https://www.streamlight.com/products/detail/stylus-pro-usbI carry one of these in my pocket at all times. I do not buy the USB models…. They make a stylus with a bigger LED than this one. I have no problem mailing you mine to try and you can just mail it back.

I have the USB Streamlight as well. It works great. It is the only ON/OFF USB light I have, though I have several and most are annoying with all their modes. Plus, with the tail cap switch, the Streamlight works as a tactical light as well.

Several guys at work carry this exact flashlight. I’ve got one of those on my pack, stays there. Not sure how old she is but it’s small. At home, I’ve got a few of these scattered around the house: https://www.streamlight.com/products/detail/stylus-proIt stays brighter longer but does require a battery swap.

I am a Streamlight guy myself, but I have several Coast lights, they are hard to beat dollar for dollar and their customer service may be the best I have ever dealt with!
