Separate electrical contact means are located in the body portion and the head portion and slidably engage with each other. The electrical contact means cooperates to define an electrical switch means that controls the flow of electrical current. The switch means is located inboard of the head portion and adjacent the pivot axis. Accordingly, the flashlight may be switched off by rotating the head portion into position in abuttment with the body portion, while switching the flashlight on as accomplished by rotating the head portion away from such abuttment. The head portion is adjustable to a plurality of positions along its pivot arc, and may remain fixed in anyone of these positions,to permit adjustment in the direction of a beam of light emitted by the light bulb. The flashlight may be prepared from a variety of materials, such as plastics materials which are resilient and durable in use.
