They're still available but Target no longer carries the Dorcy 1AA 3LED light for $10 any more. More like $18 from other vendors nowadays. It would easily mod into several kinds of very nice 1AA light.

I would also miss the old version Dorcy 1AAA 1LED light Walmart used to carry for $5.97 if I hadn't bought a bunch of them. It was also very easy to mod with fancy LEDs, unlike the newer version.

Dorcy 3D 1W LED that Target used to carry at various prices from $22 down to $6 was a very good light at $22 and a steal at anything less than $10. That was a closeout I guess, so I shouldn't complain.

Well at one time we were all mourning the loss of the original ARC AAA (in a MAJOR way!) - but THANKS to Peter Gransee - he revived it!!!!

THANKS Peter, Merri, & "family"!! :thumbsup:

(Keep a Berkeley mini-clip on one and it'll be one of your "best friends"!!)

I don't have this flashlight any more, but I'd sure love to get my hands on one again.

This picture of one was just beating around on my HD.
The big battery is just 6 volts. I remember using PolaPulse batteries from discarded instant film packs to power this light; it sure looked funny without that big battery on it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

do you have $8

I know you might laugh when I say this, But I miss the Energizer's 2led fliplight 4AA, bought a few, gave away many, good lights...could use a CS Nichia LED upgrade for enhanced brightness
