This Panasonic Flashlight Uses Whatever Size Battery You've Got Available

The battery-agnostic BF-BM10 would be very handy in an emergency

I'm no disaster prepper, but now that I live in a rural area with frequent blackouts I have multiple flashlights, each with backup batteries. Irritatingly, one of my flashlights takes CR123s, another takes 18650s and yet another takes AAAs. It gets pricey buying three sets of batteries.

Panasonic's BF-BM10 flashlight is a much smarter design:

Great for emergencies when power resources are short, this Any Battery Light by Panasonic works with almost any kind of electricity cell. The makers believe this flashlight is an industry-first, being able to run even on a single AAA battery, and working with all sizes from AAA to D batteries.

Whether a 1.5V lithium battery, rechargeable cell, or standard Alkaline battery, the compact torch can always shine its LED beams. Just twist the front of the flashlight to switch between battery types. It is also waterproof in light rain and its design is compact and lightweight. Available in two colors, white or red.

The BF-BM10 runs $42.
