Default "CFL"? Dirty electric?

Even all the flashlights are all LED nowadays.


Not all, but the superior ones are. They now make Luxeon single LED
flashlights up to 10 watts (perhaps even higher) that outshine any handheld
incandescent flashlight (except perhaps the heavy duty halogen flashlights
that will only work for a few minutes on a fully charged battery) with a
very good quality white light. I have one such Luxeon flashlight with a 3
watt lamp that is about 1/3 the size of a two "D" cell flashlight that is
many times brighter and has a better beam.
