Flashlight Enthusiast
This is the original, discontinued light.
It's too dim to be useful for anything, other than maybe map reading in your car.
It uses 1AA battery.
It comes with different colors, red, white, yellow, green. Red will preserve your night vision and IMO the best of them, even if terribly dim.
Gerber bought this and renamed it and has 2nd gen which I have not tried yet but I hear it's brighter.If so that's a sorely needed addition.
Quality is real high. It does not have a lense or a mirror inside. Just the LED sticking out unprotected.
It's a perfect light to carry in your pocket. It has incredibly long run time. A friend left one on for a day and it was still running after that.
It's built like a tank.
It's very small and can be very easily lost. It can be used as a key chain.
It has much flood, not throw.
There is no clickie switch, the head twists to turn it on, a good design IMO.
I rate it as 5/5 -- if used for the right purpose.
It's not very cost-effecient, as for what they sell for, you can get many better lights in every way, except possibly run time.
If the power goes out for days and you are stuck in a dark building and have to spend days there, this is the light you want with you. It will keep running long after everything else quits, even while being really dim.
But am looking forward to gen 2. Or Gerber Infinity Trio.
