I just noticed Underwater Kinetics updated their eled line with new 4AA and 3AA (CPO) eled lights with either front or rear switches. They have upgraded emitters about 100-120 lumens (compared to the 4AA eled zoom of 75/35 lumens high/low).
The 3AA looks to be about $17 cheaper online also. I have seen prices of $33 plus shipping a few places. I don't know the runtimes on the lights because they have them messed up from 4-5 hours to 8 hours to 15 hours listed on UK's site wrong and other sites differently wrong. I remember when the UK 4AA eled was a go to light for folks even at ~40 lumens I wanted one. They have a special "graphite" color model of one light supposedly tougher I guess. I wish they would have two modes on these with a 20%/100% output it would be a great light. I don't think a dimmer mode would be a useful for this type of light IMO as you could carry a smaller one for dim light.

The thing I don't necessarily like about these lights (with reservations) it they now all seem to use optics of some sort. I would rather have reflectors I think as I have a taskforce 1AA with optics (it is broke now) that I swapped out the optics for a reflector and liked it better that way.
