The Preon 1 is still the best AAA/10440 keychain light with an (optional) clickie?

I will be getting it eventually. I just want to make sure there have been no changes so far.

Preon 1 Specifications


  • LED: CREE XP-G S2
  • Max Output: 60 ANSI Lumens
  • Material: Hard-anodized Aircraft-grade Aluminum
  • Lens: Optical-grade glass lens with anti-reflective coating on both sides
  • Water resistance: IPX-8
  • Battery: One AAA, included (see voltage range to select acceptable batteries for this light)
  • Operating Voltage Range: 0.9V-3.0V

Read the Preon threads to make sure 10440 can be used ............

4.2 v Li-Ion cell is MUCH over the MAX stated in the specs.

Be sure the warranty won't be voided ...... (check with 4Sevens)

As to being the BEST AAA .......... I wouldn't know ?

I have been using a 10440 in my preon 1 for a few months with no problems it is very very bright I love it but I do not know about long term effect on the light .and it most likely will void your warranty

I use a Preon 1 with clicky and mine has been great compared to my other AAA lights. I don't use a 10440 in it, however.
