Looking for a light to stay plugged in in my garage. Have an older rechargeable mag-lite from the 90's but it's huge and I know newer ones have way more power. I have some Streamlight's but I know there are others out there.
I am a flashlight junkie and in my opinion you cant beat the Streamlights. Go to a police supply store and compare them until you see one that you like.
Fenix has a number of great rechargeable lights in a compact size. Really like these. My last one was 1000 lumens on high and it lights up the whole yard into the woods. Excellent throw.
You can never have to many flashlights! Recently got a stream light USB it’s the best fl I have very small and very bright and rechargeable, I showed it to my wife and I had to buy another because she claimed it! FYI the bronze one the first click is high beam, second click is lower. All other color lights are the opposite.

I have two rechargeable Streamlights, a small Strion LED that I carry daily and a larger one plugged in day and night(for the last eight years) for home "emergencies". Like when the cat gets out. Love them both, incredibly bright. I also like the feature on the unit that is plugged in 24/7/365. It just keeps the charge topped off, does not over charge the battery.
I have a bunch of flashlights but have no desire for a rechargeable light in these modern times. I have about 20 flashlight batteries that are rechargeable and they will hold a charge for years and I also have two or three chargers that have batteries always in them. I have one light I paid about 25 bucks for that holds four 18650 batteries and it has seven big LED lamps that will light up the country side. If you want something even more powerful I have a Ryobi 18V light that uses the same battery that my Ryobi power tools use and it cost about $60 at Home Depot but it is rated to have 900 yard range and I don't think it will shoot that far but it'll go darn close to it.
This Olight is specifically designed to remain plugged in, as you stated. A lot of rechargeable lights are best not left plugged in continually.
I keep this one in my living room for when the power goes out. It turns on automatically.
It also has a vehicle charging mount.
