Well it depends on where I'm at. In the woods, I take my G2. Monday night went caching to find some urban micros and used my Gerber Sonic then to find one of the micros. Actually I wanted to check the hide for spiders and other critters before I reached in there to get the micro. I find that in urban areas at night, the little Gerber gives me plenty of light to see what I'm doing, but also doesn't give me away when I'm trying to be stealthy.
