I saw an interesting light at Radio Shack today. It was a Swisstech (or maybe Swisstools?) 1AAA LED light using a 5mm type LED with a reflector and clicky switch for $4.99. I didn't get one but it looks like a decent light for the right price.
 
I bought one at Staples for the same price. With a new alkaline in place, it is the led equivalent of the Maglite Solitare. Don't expect too much in the way of brightness. The tint is a nice blue, non-adjustable beam with no artifacts, just a nice, even blue light. I expected more illumination based on the ad copy on the package, but that aside, it feels like a well-built tool with a one-position clicky on the tail. Well-worth a fiver if you are happy with a Solitare level of led light.
