If I recall correctly the Photon/SAK light/knife combo uses 1220 batteries. If that's the case I bought a pair at Wal Mart. I don't have the knife anymore. I bought it as a gift and wanted to make sure it had fresh batteries before I sent it. It wasn't as bright as the white Photon II.

Do you know any more about it, such as when they will be avaliable and who will sell them? I`ll have to get one of those for sure! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
These flashlights come in four different body colors (yellow, grey, white and black) and the LEDs come in white, green, blue-green, blue, and red.
The version with the black body has a glow-in-the-dark switch.
Retail is $16, and can currently only be ordered via e-mail, but a website is currently under construction.
E-mail Mike J. for your Tag Light here...
Hope this helps a bit.
I just received it this morning, so I haven't made a web page or taken pictures yet, other than the one up ^^^ there.

A teeny bit off the subject, but
if you're the incurable experimenter..(I am)?! [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img], like me, I guess....-you always feel pretty great when a new, updated catalog like Hosfelt sent, is found in your mailbox. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
If you don't have one yet,-GET ONE...and stop getting shafted on most (not all) of those high performance batteries,-for instance.. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
In today's mail, arrived something called the Tag Light.
It's a bit thinner than a Photon, and about half to maybe 60% the overall size. A single white LED is powered by a pair of CR1220 lithiums.
Has both squeeze-on and a slide switch for steady-on. My white Photon is still buried in the earthquake mess, but visually the Tag Light seems pretty much on par with it.
I'll compare them as soon as I "rediscover" my white Photon. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
The battery change procedure is a bit complicated, but it's tool-free and illustrated in pictures with the packaging.
Published battery life is 15 hours, which I'll put to the test as soon as I can find some CR1220 lithium cells.
Any ideas where I can get these batteries, or more accurately, where I can get them without a credit card?
