So am I to assume that they do not drain? That is great. I had pick some up but haven't tested the latest ones yet.

They are? The packaging says "weather resistant."
Does this flashlight have the parasitic drain issue?
The last 3 pack I bought from Costco had an issue where the batteries went dead in

Thanks OP. FYI, my store (Coleman Ave) had them by the camping equipment, not in the tool area. There were lots of the Feit 2 packs, also.

Seems like a fair deal if they actually put out 250 lumens and will last more than a week

At our Costco the 200 lumen ones are $12. So, $4 each for 3 AAA duracell bateries AND a kick A$$ little flashlight. I may or may not have bought 10 packs.

The new 250 Lumen flashlight no longer has the low battery indicator. The on/off button seems to be better protected than the older lights.

i just looked at mine as i type, posted are rated at 250 so they are mostly improved emitters which are brighter. Last years models are rated 200 lumens, with plastic lens that can get scratch easily.

No, the packaging identifies these as CREE XPG-R4 leds, which have a much higher intensity than the XPC's.

Can't seem to find any of the older 200LM version now on sale for $11.99
I did see the 500LM two pack for $24.99 but passed up on it.

Does the packaging say xpc led? If so those will only put out max 140 lumens assuming best binning. Pretty deceptive packaging if so.
