Big time. I have a single AA cell LED flashlight on my keyring that has
had the same battery in it for a year and a half. Still burns bright
and gets ised a lot. I have another LED flashlight in the house that
uses 4 AA cells. Same set of batteries for over a year and still
bright. Also used a lot. The LED bulb, IMO, is the best thing to
happen to flashlights since their invention.

You'll be amazed.
