The rechargeable flashlight and the universal connector can be integral in a single body, the body housing a rechargeable battery, lens/lamp assembly and spare bulbs. A magnetic foot is hingedly attached to the flashlight body for permitting the flashlight to be mounted on any magnetically responsive material and providing a directable flashlight beam.
