What to look for in the best flashlight under $50

The brightness of a flashlight is measured in lumens. The higher the lumen count, the brighter the light. For general use, a flashlight with 100-200 lumens should be sufficient.

2. Battery Life

Consider how long the flashlight can run on a single charge or set of batteries. Longer battery life means less frequent charging or replacement of batteries.
