My brightest AA light is a Fenix L2D. The best AA throwers I have are Streamlight ProPoly 4AA Lux. I don't own any AAA lights, except Princeton Tec EOS headlamps, which are pretty bright with SSC P4 upgrades and Khatod reflectors.
I am suprised nobody has put their Draco on the list, those little suckers put out! Maybe I'll have order one so it's on the list (any excuse for a new torch) lol
AA
MTE 1xAA SSC-P4 42180-U
(Elektrolumens Lucidus XR-1 on 14500)
AAA single
Ultrafire 602C Seoul SSC 42180-U
(Fenix L0D-CE on 10440.)
(The L0D-CE AAA on high is similar to the Ultrafire AAA but takes 5 twists (on-off-on-off-on) to get there so I gave the nod to the 602C)
AAA multiple
Electrlumens My Little Friend 3xSSC-P4
I do not have a multiple AA that is very bright but am eyeing Elektrolumens Firelion 3AA 3xSSC-P4
I agree... using a AA or AAA sized 3.6V sized Lion battery to get the brightness isn't exactly what I'd consider for a brightest AA or AAA light :thinking:, but to each his own I guess. :sigh:
