Streamlight Keymate v Streamlight Nano

[mcnair55]

Must admit I am very fond of the Streamlight brand and after my latest buy the Nano now thinking of adding the Key Mate.

Question to the more informed out there in light land.
Is the Nano a replacement to the key Mate or as well as?I can still buy the Keymate easier enough it seems but wondered if they are just old stock or still being produced.

I just love tiny lights and want it in my collection rather than use it but of course i will as i like to give them all a turn.

Each one has its individual characteristics--One does not necessarily serve as a replacement for the other. They share the same manufacturer, but not much else.

I really like the KEYMATE; it almost serves as a single cell tactical or special use light with good lighting features though really just one mode of light emittance. On the other hand the Nano feels like a keychain light with nothing much going for it other than good brightness for its tiny size.
