Don't get left in the dark: Amazon is having a one-day sale on flashlights — save up to 60%

A flashlight is one of those things you don't think you really need...until you do. Power outages, camping trips and the need to see outside at night have a funny way of making you wish you had a flashlight or two handy. Well, Amazon is making it easy to stock up: Just for today, the retail giant is having a sale on a slew of GearLight flashlights — you'll save up to 60%! Don't miss these deals.

"Just what I wanted," said a satisfied shopper. "I wanted a bright flashlight for work. No flashing lights, no colors, just a simple bright led flashlight. This fills the bill. I've been using it for three weeks and have had no problems."

One five-star reviewer shared that the light is "easy to attach" and "very bright." They added, "I use it on my bike which lets people and cars see me well in advance. It is a very good safety feature."

"Great reading light," said a happy customer. "I take this light with me everywhere I go. I mainly use it for ready but also use it for a night light. Battery last long and charges fast. It has three light settings. Good quality."
