After searching for size comparisons here, not always finding what I was looking for and finding it hard to imagine size comparisons by measurements and a picture of a light in the hand is hard to imagine because of different sized hands, I found a helpful way of getting some idea how big or small lights are in comparison to each other. I used some of my other lights for the picture. Go to manufacturers sites and get measurements for lights you're interested in, draw on a piece of paper for the length, multiply the diameter by 3.14 and mark that on the paper, cut out the shape, roll it up and tape it into a tube, not the best way, but a little helpful in size determination. Mine are sloppy but they'll do.

Good idea, blub. I usually cut a wooden dowel to length before buying a flashlight so I can get an idea of its size in my hand.
