Just don't go too cheap as the really cheap ones, under $5 can be a bit iffy.
+1 I have a bunch of UV and regular unknown chinse torches all using LiIon batteries, damn bright and overkill for my needs unless I want to take up semaphore to the ISS (theres a citizen science project idea!). But 99% of the time my light one I reviewed on this site is all i need (Klarus FL1A, was a little pricey, but not really considering how perfect I find it).
