Added a new Flashlight to my collection, what is your favorite?

I recently took this pic of some my handgun flashlights (I didn't include any duplicates):

So, I went and picked up a Fenix, Streamlight, and some Coasts... All said Made in China. Maglite really is the only Made in USA maker?

Anyway, the Coast lights were good. Just why the hell do they insert the battery into the flashlight? That's a major leak risk with alkalines.

Fenix was a bit non-conventional and wasn't a great fan of the design -- it was a base model though. Streamlight was okay except the tail button was stiff as hell and the attached the pen clip to the tail-cal == scratch the hell out of the barrel when unscrewing tailcap.

This has renewed my love for Maglites.

I recently grabbed an Olight S1 Baton for $27 and Terralux Colorado for $25.

Though paying upwards of $800 for one of their products sure hurts.
