There's a review of this light on The LED Museum. Craig found that the brightness was on the low side for a 3 LED light and the finish is not anodized, so it'll scratch very easily.

Must be a Smith & Wesson Galaxy. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif
The brightness IS low for a "3 banger" and the finish is not anodized, but it ought to have a longer than expected battery life because it underdrives its LEDs.

My review is here if you're interested.

Or you could try a Streamlight Clipmate that uses 3 AAA batteries. Comes with a balljoing clip and well designed head band. Cost about $15
