Mine is the cool brushed Anthracite color.

I also have a silver 2AA mag I use all the time (non-LED but very bright/durable) and a normal 1AAA MAG Solitaire.

I'm a flashlight junkie if you can't tell.

I almost bought one of those tonight. I was thinking of buying a flashlight with a rechargable battery

You can read for days about flashlight options here...

I'm not familiar with the specific model linked to at Amazon above, but the manufacturer is well regarded - Fenix typically makes some of the best lights for the money. They've plenty of great lights under $50.

SureFire...I'm sure those that forked out the bucks, will have nothing but great things to say about them. IMO...they're a waste of money. Plenty of far cheaper lights works as well or better, and there's no way I'd drop that much cabbage on something I'll lose within a year.

I've had mine for a year....use it almost daily....and have never had to replace the two Rayovac batteries I put in it. No point in rechargeable when two normal batteries last 3 years.
