Thanks for the heads up. Yep its a "special" 1 of 12 ss, also a two mode. I am looking for something on the cheaper side, like the aluminum. My arsenal is made up mostly of all bigger, high lumen lights that are hid, Trip and quad led stuff. I am wanting to get a really small light with a big punch but don't want to spend big bucks on my first one to see if im gonna like that type of light. thanks
