Light recommendation under $50

I'm looking for a good tactical light as close to 200 lumens as I can get below or at $50. I've spend enough already on a safe, gun and ammo that I need to be a little budget conscious right now and can't spend too much. Maybe later but right now just need a good budget light.

This will be a nightstand light and will not be mounting it on my gun.
 
techlite lumen master 200

$28.49 on Amazon.com.... for a 3 pack

I bought a 3 pack and they are just as bright as my Fenix PD30. Well built, I got mine on sale even cheaper, wish now I'd got another 3 pack at that price (I paid $15 at Costco).
 
There are a ton of lights for $50 or under that are very unlikely to fail, and paying more than that doesn't necessarily mean they won't.
I wouldn't worry about failures of any kind for a nightstand light. If you're not going to mount it on a gun (which shakes the crap out of them) or get it wet you've eliminated the 2 primary causes of failures. Try not to throw them down the stairs. Other than that just be sure to watch your batteries.

Fenix makes a good light. 4Seven also makes a good light for not a whole lot of money. Or for a nightstand light a big Maglight 3/4D works pretty well. You did good though.

Streamlight and surefire make good lights as well, but they've both got enough brand recognition to charge a premium for their stamp. Also they have to charge a little more to offset the cost of their advertising.
 
Let usknow how the Fenix holds up. I'm a Surefire man and have thought about buying a Fenix a time or two but have read a lot of mixed reviews.
