I want a small flashlight to attach to my blue Leatherman Squirt PS4.

I was gonna get a 4Sevens Preon 1 in the blue, but I found out that Fenix, one of my favorite brands, also offers one of their lights - The E05 - in blue as well.

Here's my question.

I just bought a Fenix E01 in blue, but it's more of a darker, navy blue. Is the Fenix E05 in blue a closer match to the Leatherman Squirt's shade of blue? It's a more lighter, kinda electric blue is how I would describe it.

Please don't take away my man card for thinking like a woman, wanting my tool and torch to match. :shakehead

Your man card has officially been revoked. Please turn it into the nearest collection bin ASAP. :p

Well... I own a LM PS4 myself and the P4 (which I like more - why Leatherman, why did you discontinue this tool?!:shakehead)

Anyways, the iTP EOS A3 in blue is more along the lines of the PS4 blue although it is a gloss finish not a matte.

To answer your specific question though perhaps this post might help you.

I'm pretty sure whichever light that ends up rubbing and bumping against your stainless Squirt won't have much color finish left on it over time..

Build a light box and test it. It's not a calibrated integrating sphere but much better than "eyeballing" it. :)

As long as one of the 2 items matches your panties your all good.









Lol, just messing with you bro. I have nothing to contribute but could not pass this up. Have a good night.

In a related topic, I also have a Leatherman Juice S2 in the storm gray finish. I also want a small light for it.

I'm thinking a Titanium 4Sevens Mini Quark AA.

Does it have a matte finish like my Leatherman? Or is it a glossy finish?

i have a blue itp A3, blue squirt s4, and blue preon 1 body....

the preon blue matches the squirt pretty well, same tone of blue, but the preon is a shade lighter.

the itp A3 blue has more violet and looks quite different than the blue on the squirt.

i also have a fenix E05, and like it much more than the preon. and if i were to get another it would be the purple E05 =)

Yeah, I'm thinking a blue Fenix E05 as well. My daughter's favorite color is purple, so I think I'll go ahead and pick her up a purple one too...just for kicks and giggles. She's thirteen and has her own house key now. And of course, her little keychain is adorned with all kinds of girly do-dads and such. A purple E05 will do her good.

I would but this blue Squirt was a Christmas gift from my daughter. She'd have cats if I didn't tote it.

I have the black E05 so I cannot comment on the blue color, but I think you are really going to like the E05.
