Best 2AA host for PR2 SMJLED? (I'm thinking of CHEAPIES)

Ok, MUST be AAs.
I have a Energizer, but it's just SO DAMN crappy. Anything else?

Garrity Tuff Light. Rubberized and waterproof with sputtered reflector.

That's what I use too! Good beam-- a strange pattern on the periphery of the beam but it works well and the price is right. Also a film canister pops right on, perfect fit, to make a lantern, and it will tailstand.

Hmmm. Didn't know about the film canister, now I'll have to try it.

Thanks!

Check out this thread.

Suggest SMJLED PR2 hosts?

My fave is Dorcy Gelbrites. The faceted reflector produces a more useful wide hotspot than smooth reflector.

Haha.
Hey mbirds, works like a charm.

The second pic has camera shake and using an incan bulb.

EDIT: I just tried the SMJLED in it. even brighter!

Anybody need a coleman minipacker 4xAA led lantern? This 2xaa config just replaced it. haha

Errr...I was hoping for something smaller. The Best PR2 host thread didn't have many 2AA choices.

I miss the old RayoVac I had that held a PR2 bulb. Mini Mag sized, USA made and DURABLE

I have a SMJLED in this Rayovac 2AA and like it alot. http://www.rayovac.com/flashlight/home&auto/home_GPR2AA-B.htm

They're cheap but not that small. I got mine at Walmart for $2 or $3

I've got that light in both 2AA and 2D and I think they're great. The 2AA is 2.29 at Walfart.
