Hello all,

I'm in the market for a new 1 AAA light and I am seriously considering the Eiger. I'm looking to keep it as small as possible - I don't want the momentary cap or any of the keychain attachments so I think the "pocket" body may be my best bet, however I can't seem to find a good picture of the Eiger in aluminum with just the pocket body. If you have one, would you mind sharing a picture?

Thanks!

AC

Thanks! I couldn't find a single picture of the pocket body anywhere on the Peak website.

Anyone else have pictures they would be willing to share?

So the if the "pocket" version looks like that, and only the "keychain" model can have the momentary switch, what are these three then? Three different versions of keychain, one of them with a momentary switch? I'm confused by this.

Shown above from top to bottom, Normal Keychain configuration, Keychain model with push button momentary switch fitted and the Lug version in brass.

I think that pic of thepocket body Eiger is a Mule head also. so tht makes it even shorter. If you get a standard Eiger head it will be a little longer

That is exactly what prompted my question as well. The website doesn't do the best job of explaining all the options and showing pictures of everything.

The first thread (product lineup) in the Peak sub forum shows all of the bodies, but they are the old Matterhorn ones. The Eiger is an updated Matterhorn, and Newer bodies are very slightly longer, due to the QTC.

So what makes the "keychain" version different from the "lug" version, seeing as they both have keychain rings?

Gotcha.

That thread is more confusing than their website.
