Wind up torches are good! 

Aye got 2 of those , and when the power cuts start they will be invaluable

Ideally I need a powerful long lasting torch around 3 inches long max ... Yeah Maglite do the Soliteire or whatever it's called in LED now that little one aaa battery torch but its only around 40 lumens and hard to come by atm... I need around 220lumens minimum

Shopping around first

As Taxi Driver says buy a cree led torch. Once you've seen one of these then all your other torches will become redundant .
I had numerous led torches ,Maglite inc. but I don't even know where they are now as I bought cree torches for the cars ,house and three for the van.
Do as he recommends ........

I use an led lenser p7 every day,comfortabley fits in my trouser pocket and I replace  the batteries about once a month. Just over 3 inches and uses 4 aaa batteries and about 220 lumens on full. Very easily adjusted beam, from spot to focus one handed. had it for 2 years and has been dropped many times, got very wet but it keeps on working.

That's interesting to note that the Maglites can be uprated, I have a 6 D Cell, quite a beast if good quality heavier batteries are used....    and a Mini Mag both dating from the early 90's still in regular use with Halogen bulbs.......
