NEBO Big Larry flashlight
I picked up one of these a while back (about the same time as when I got the satchel) and I have to say good pocket COB flashlight. A little bigger/thicker than the Mini-Mag-Light with a rubber grip. It has a strong magnet on the base so I can stick it on steel surface and get up in there with both hands free. I had a Chinese knock off of one of these from Walmart ($12 before covid) but they stopped carrying it and I found them online for nearly the same price as the NEBO (got mine less than $20 with shipping) so I went with the name brand. I could do without the red light since I don't do much night ops and getting to it I still have to cycle through the spot light and the wide white beam. Also the Big Larry has a better clip and a heavier switch to turn on the light. The Chinese knock off would roll about and it would turn it's self on.
If you're in the market for a good pocket flash light give them a looksie. Also it's fun to say "let me whip out my "Big Larry".

I just bought a little Fenix E03R V2 to go in my flight "ohchit" bag for travel. It's only slightly larger than a 9v battery in the shape shape. It has an amazing variety of light levels and modes, from 5 to 250 lumens and red light. There's a "breathing mode" that puzzled me until I realized it is a very subtle pulsing light you can leave on all night to help you find the flashlight in complete darkness. Hey, sometimes you need a light to find the light, right?
No hat clip, but it does have a keychain loop for a clip or neck lanyard. Covered USB-C charge port for water/dust protection. Lockable on/off switch, metal case, and more. Fenix even offers a 15% military discount.

I just found an LED light that was free. I was standing back from my Jeep & saw something hanging down under the front end. It turned out to be a Kimbal Midwest Quantum work light that was wedged in between the engine and steering gear, etc. Getting it out was like working some sort of Chinese puzzle. It's rechargeable and a cord for an old phone fits it. ++++ I'm guessing that a mechanic left it there years ago when I had the water pump replaced (under warranty.) I'm surprised that it was not noticed during an oil change.
