I think that alot of folks have either forgotten or weren't clued into CPFer's first and unrelenting requests (read as "constant badgering") for Peter to make an AA light that equaled or surpassed the AAA's performance. We were interested Initially, in a small AA LED, with the looong runtime and quality of the AAA but utilizing the more common AA batteries for continuity with much of our gear (like GPS, two way radios and LS mods or Arc LS's with AA-TSP's, headlamps, radios etc., etc.) People really seemed to want an Arc produced light that would compete with the Infinity AA for outdoor activities like camping, backpacking, travel and military deployment, all situations where it is beneficial to stick to one battery size for ease of supply (probably the most common size worldwide too) and various configurations (AA rechargeables and lithiums as well as alkalines) I know this is what I wanted. Just remember that it wasn't planned to be smaller or brighter, just to fill a request for an AA powered lightsource. Never known to "leave, well enough, alone" though, Peter gave us more than we bargained for! Thanks Peter!
