Looking for recommendations on a flashlight. Must be rechargeable and metal to magnatize to a mount in my truck or comes with a mount. Medium size to not be bulky and not easy to misplace. Object is for it to always be there and ready to go if needed. Budget is $200. Thanks in advance.

olight has a lot of options that will fit that bill. I have a handful of different ones and really like them.

Seems like most flashlights these days are made of aluminum.
Fenix makes excellent products.

I got these husky work lights from Home Depot they fit your criteria except they aren’t a flashlight. They are rechargeable, 3 brightness settings, 1500 lumens at brightest, fold, prop, and have a magnet to attach to metal. Oh and you can get two for 20$. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-2...TVmxpCStqUqp1fF3nV4OmUbKMkMaAhRqEALw_wcBWhy not just put under rail led’s that light up the bed with a switch in the bed? This is what I did on my truck and it works great.

Just me but I wouldn't go with rechargeable unless it has a replaceable battery. A dead light waiting on a charge really sucks!

Take a look at Nightstick. I have one that mounts in a cradle charger.

X2 X3 on Fenix I used to have streamlight and sure fire for law enforcement use but only streamlight still works. Not impressed with Surefire rechargeable especially when I need to rely on them.

I got this one from Costco, it is rechargeable and also comes with a battery pack with I think nine batteries already loaded in it, has 5000 lumems and will also charge your phone , for the grand total of $29.99. I got it at the first of the season and still going on just the battery pack! ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/PiQCY5u.jpg)

Fenix, Surefire, and Streamlight. Those 3 are the best IMO and will give You many years of service and excellent performance.

I like my head lamps, i have a couple that are rechargeable plus they have the option for regular batteries, so i always carry some when i go in the woods in my Bag (or pocket if tracking)

If you are spending much more than $30 on a flashlight, you’re spending too much. There was a time when these premium manufacturers offered something that others didn’t. That’s not the case anymore. There are many Chinese brands that offer ridiculous lights that are great quality for cheap now. I have several sofirn lights that are top notch and a Wurkkos that is like a pocket sized spotlight. Very nice lights. Buy a sofirn sc31pro and then buy the magnetic end cap. You will be out about $33. These lights are very impressive. Sofirn SC31Pro
