The battery lasts about 4 hours with either bulb running. I sometimes use it when backpacking. I think it’s called a cryo-light
My Mag light has been through hell in the last 15 years. Best I have ever seen, all bulbs will burn out, Led is the only other option. But it has limits too.

Like was said Mag lights, even the tiny ones carry a spare bulb in them.
