Every time these go on sale at Harbor Freight for less than 5 bucks I pick 
one up.  Usually $3.99.  Every time.

Almost so cheap it isn't worth changing the battery but I admit I have.

Cheap enough to have one any where it might be handy.  Every car, every 
work bench, at home and at the hanger, and a couple of spares.  I've had 
the leads break and it isn't worth the trouble to fix them.
If I end up with a surplus at the end of the year I use 'em as stocking 
stuffers.
