And a headlight, if she's not too concerned about the "do".
Keep it simple - Streamlight Propoly 4AA Lux.
So Mom just had her 60th birthday and loves to walk every morning at 6. Usually it is dark. She lives in the NW in the woods....no street lights. Right now her edc is a AA mag. I want a simple pocket light that runs on 123's or AA,AAA. Also I think a click switch would be best--nothing complicated. I like the Amilite T5 so that is one idea....also the fenix P1-CE is nice but no clickie. Any other thoughts?
How about the new L2T Rebel:
Fenix L2T v2.0
This is a small two stage clicky - fully regulated - takes 2 aa's - the "low" stage 15 lumens (good for walking) has a quoted runtime of 32 hours (!) on nimh - twist the head for a blast of light ("140 lumens for 2.4 hours") - has textured reflector for smooth beam and large bright spill - small, light and easy to carry, includes lanyard etc. - just $44.11 shipped.
Small - Bright - Runtime : choose two : now you can get all three!:thumbsup:
P1 CE
Cheap bright and no learning curve. Avoid digital or multi level lights.
Do not avoid Cr123 because you can just give her 20 of them and it will last for years.
