Re: Which little light??
Within your price point, perhaps a Jetbeam MKII/LiteFlux/Fenix LxT would be good. With a 3v input most of these will give you LuxIII brightness, and, in a pinch, LuxI brightness on an easily available 1.5vAA. they all have their strenghts and weaknesses and flashlightreviews.com has all of them reviewed i believe.
If you want to go for a higher price point, apart from the FF3, you could also consider the Jil Intelli, which uses the same flupic module as the FF3. Using a smaller battery, it is smaller than the FF3, but will have a lower high, and less runtime than the FF3. However if you don't need a scorcher (it isn't that much dimmer than the FF3 and scorching is best left to bigger lights anyway) and if you don't need very long runtimes, then it is a very good choice. It's got a very small footprint, and has a very tough, high quality finish. It also has a variety of battery tubes you can use different types/sizes of batteries with. I would also trust it to be more waterproof than the FF3.

you can check out beamshots in the corridor link on my sigline. i was going to take bike shot pics of the Jil over last weekend but did not manage to. maybe next weekend.
