I got one in the outdoor/barbecue section at Lowe's. It's marketed as an after-hours barbecue lamp. It has a base that can attach as a clamp or magnet, is AAA-battery-powered, has a nice. long flexible gooseneck, and a bright halogen lamp. At Lowe's it was $20, but I've also since seen it at Costco for around $10. They're all chrome and silver and look pretty nice.
Not only is it a handy for barbecuing and flipping LPs (right now I have it at my turntable), it's THE BEST for changing interconnects behind the rack because you don't have to use a third hand or your mouth to hold a flashlight. It also fits behind the rack where a long-handle MagLite won't.
The magnet, clamp, and gooseneck enable you to aim the light exactly where you want it, and it stays there. My HT system has a wide, low rack, and it's really dark back there with literally dozens (full 7.1 surround) of wires including interconnects, power cords, HDMIs, SP/DIFs, and speaker cables. This little flexlite is a lifesaver.
