Hey everyone
I'm having a hard time find up to date information in terms of what is currently available while researching for a new keychain light so I've been forced to start a new thread. I currently have a red Preon 1 on my house keychain. I use to have a Fenix LD01 on my car keys, it was a good light, but I gave it to my father a few months ago as he desperately needed a decent light on his keys instead of the sad excuse for a light on a cheap multitool keychain that had to be a fraction of a lumen output. I couldn't stand watching him struggle to see using it and don't regret the choice at all. But I am now looking to replace that spot on my keys. I'm looking for light that has only 3 modes lo,med,hi or less would be ok. I do not want to cycle through strobe etc. I have other lights that have this feature and do not want to cycle through this.
The light will used primarily for looking around the inside of my car, putting a key in a lock and similar everyday close up needs. I will be using an eneloop battery in this light as I already have several. I've been thinking it over and looking at the wear and tear on my Preon which has been on my main keys along with a bottle opener and a swiss army knife. I'll be moving the Preon to my car keys and looking for an SS or Ti light for main key ring. They will be able to stand up better to the abuse of that ring. It seems an SS LD01 is a lot harder to find now that I'm looking again. AAA light suggestions that come in SS or Ti would be appreciated. What SS or Ti lights are still out on the market that would fit my needs? Ideally available within Canada to avoid import duties.
