Hinge & latch lube?

What do some of you use for lubricating door hinges and latches?
Silicone spray lubricant has been what I have used for quite some time. It is relatively clean, doesn't collect dirt, doesn't make a mess if some drips on the jamb, and seems to work fairly well. At least I haven't had to replace any hinges and they don't squeak.
 
I use a Teflon spray on some, and some Teflon grease on others. The Teflon grease is the same grease I use on the "ball" on my hitch.

I also use a clear Teflon grease. Purchased a tube of it (large cardboard tube for use with grease guns) for use on my shotguns about 15 years ago when I was shooting in a trap league two nights / week. At the rate I'm using it that tube will most likely be here long after I become worm food.

My neighbor runs a body shop and he says he uses lithium greas spray for hinges. He lubed my truck hinges for me and it worked fine. :)
