73 pages, grouped by category. Everything on the site is one click from here and two from the homepage.

Main pages

Flashlights

Handheld lights from under $20 to around $60, ranked by lumens per dollar with the marketing numbers taken apart.

Headlamps

Head-worn lights for work, camping and the walk back to the car, ranked on runtime and weight as well as output.

Work Lights & Lanterns

Flood-beam lights and lanterns that have to run for hours, judged on sustained output rather than a thirty-second peak.

EDC & Keychain

Pocket clips, keyring lights and the sub-2-ounce class, where carryability is a scored attribute rather than a footnote.

Emergency & Outage

Outage, vehicle and storm-kit lights, where a fully charged cell that self-discharged in a drawer is the real failure mode.

Where to Buy

Retailer-by-retailer orientation: what the aisle carries, what the house brands claim, and what the same money buys elsewhere.

Guides

How lumens are measured, why the big number shrinks, which cell your light takes, and what to do when it stops charging.
