The invention relates to a charging station with a charging contact device (20) and an accumulator-operated flashlight (10) with charging contacts (14, 15), arranged transverse to the flashlight longitudinal axis and insulated with respect to one another, on the flashlight housing casing, which, when the accumulators are being recharged, bear electrically conductively against charging contact points (28, 29) of the charging contact device (20). According to the invention the charging station is characterised in that each of the two charging contacts (14, 15) extends on the flashlight housing over a circular arc of <180°, in that the charging contact device (20) has a base body (21) with a contact face (25) and two side bodies (23, 24) with faces on which charging contact points (28, 29) are arranged, and in that the side bodies (23, 24) each contain a magnet (27), the magnetic force field of which is able to fix the positioning of the flashlight (10) in a stable and functionally reliable manner when the accumulators are being recharged.
A charging station with a charging contact device and a battery-operated flashlight, the battery-operated flashlight extending along a longitudinal axis and comprising a flashlight housing and two charging contacts arranged on the flashlight housing transverse to the longitudinal axis and insulated with respect to one another, wherein the two charging contacts engage, in an electrically conductive manner, the charging contact points of the charging contact device during recharging of the battery-operated flashlight,
