Looking for Multi-AA Light

[GPeaslee]

I am looking for a powerful multi-AA light and have come across the following:

- Fenix TK41
- Sunwayman M40A
- Olight S65

Are there any other lights in this category that I should consider?
I am leaning toward the TK41 - highest lumens (800) with longest runtime (over 2 hrs) but is the largest and heaviest.
The Sunwayman M40A looks very solid too for its size and only 4 AA batteries.

I am in the same search - for my needs I have narrowed it down to the Jetbeam pa40 or the Fenix Tk40. Am leaning toward the Jetbeam since I already have a large long distance light.

I was looking for exactly the same kind of light for a present and went for the Fenix TK41.

My only hesitation on the Fenix TK41 is the size and weight. No question it is brighter and throws farther. I am not crazy about the style of the Olight S65 which looks very plain. So that leaves the Sunwayman M40A. 600 lumens for 1.5 hours on 4 X AA's in a small package is starting to look very attractive. Any M40A owners, please chime in.

Well I finally decided on the Sunwayman and received it today. What an amazing light! Love the size, weight, how it fits in my hand. Just tested it behind my house in the alley. The throw is amazing for such a compact light. Hard to believe you can get that much light from 4 AA regular alkaline batteries. I highly recommend this light!
