which key chain light??

[lionken07]

Epoch4?
CMG Equipment Infinity Ultra Task Light?
Arc AAA??
Inova X5?

My maglite AAA is gettin' too old to keep it with my keys, so I'm thinkin' about upgrading to one if these four lights. I don't really have any personal experience with any of them. So can you all tell me the:
brightness?
Quality?
durability?
of each?

thanks

Go to the "LED, Electroluminescent and Lasers" forum and click on "search" at the top of the page. Enter "Arc AAA Ultra" in the search box and select "Subject only" then click search. There are several good threads comparing these lights. You could do the same with the X5 and Epoch 4 although they would seem too big for a "keychain" type light.

I use the Infiity Ultra on my keychain. Plenty bright for most up close tasks. The quality of the Arc and Ultra are outstanding and pretty close in brightness. They will put your Mag AAA to shame in brightness (although they might not "throw" the light as far). They are also regulated so they will keep their brightness for several hours.

**Edit P.S. you can also expect this thread to eventually get moved to the LED forum by a moderator.**
