Hello-
I bought a Minimag 3xAA the other day at Walmart, but I really don't like the fact that it requires two handed operation.
Since Target has the X03, I'm torn between returning the 3xAA and getting that instead. And sadly, I can't afford both. :/
I'm disappointed flashlightreviews.com didn't do a 3xAA review - according to the charts I saw on another post, the 3xAA has like ~75% more light output than the 2xAA. Also, I've read that the 3xAA doesn't have any regulation, and I can't help but agree after seeing the alkaline chart here: http://candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=131898
According to FLR, the X03 is brighter than the 2xAA, but since they haven't done any tests on a 3xAA, I can only guess the 3xAA is brighter than the X03?
So what I'd like to know is, what would you do if you were me? Return the 3xAA and get the X03, or just keep the 3xAA?
Thanks.
