9 LEDs 3AAAs Direct Drive for £1.35 / $2.50 @ FifthUnit inc p&p

For £1.35, these are brilliant, literally.

Only direct drive yes, but nice and bright.

Flood, not spot, obviously. Lights up a room nicely.

Free shipping with the two pack.

Shipping is a little slow, around 16 days to UK, but worth the wait. They do warn you about this though.

I get around 75 minutes bright with 1,000 mah nimh's.

End clickie, which I prefer to twist.

Nice and solid, apparently upgrade of earlier version.

And look out for the 3.6V Li-ion rechargeable battery (custom made to replace the 3xAAAs battery tray, available in shortly)

Fifth unit has some amazing deals!!! This light looks like a steal for $2.50 shipped and would be pretty awesome with the rechargable 3.6v battery. Hopefully they will release that soon.

I just posted a micro-review at:

I am quite happy with my purchase of these (fifthunit.com calls it the "LYCKEBY"), compared to the $3.18 I threw out the window at the dollar store for three of their gutless wonders.
