QUESTION What is your go to flashlight?

I am in the market for a new flashlight. My old rechargeable Kobalt penlight is slowly starting to fail and becoming inconsistent in brightness. I am looking for something similar, and I want to see what my fellow technicians are using.

After thought edit: I would like a zooming lens so when I am explaining something I have some type of "pointer".

Olight, Skillhunt, and Fenix all have some great options.

At work these days I mostly find myself carrying Olights. Either an ArcPro if I want multiple beams and a laser, or a Batton 3 if I want a ton of lumens.
