A flashlight having a casing containing a pair of batteries, a head assembly mounted on an upper end of the casing, and a tail assembly mounted on a lower end of the casing. The head assembly includes a swivel head carrying a bulb with the swivel head being rotatable about a swivel axis which is inclined with respect to a longitudinal axis of the casing. The tail assembly includes a rotary switch for illuminating and extinguishing the bulb. The bulb has a terminal which is connected electrically to a negative terminal on one of the batteries by operating the rotary switch. Another terminal on the bulb is connected electrically to a positive terminal on the other battery. The rotary switch includes a lifter that is movable in response to rotation of the tail cap for lifting a spring out of contact with a conductive insert in the casing lower end thereby electrically disconnecting the conductive means and the battery negative terminal.
