Looking for a 1AA twisty light under $40

BillG · Jul 10, 2016

One twisty in my BOB would be good. Although I have decent clickie lights.....a twisty to my mind would be more reliable since there is no spring to break. Not that i think my Fenix or Olight springs would break......just a little extra insurance doesn't hurt.

Maybe a 4sevens mini MA?? or a Eagletac D25A??

Thanks.....Bill

Twisty lights often have springs. If you want a dead reliable twisty with no spring, the Peak El Capitan is a battery crusher. However it is about double your stated price and USA made.

Kreisl....thanks for that link.....seems self-built recommends L3 L10 twisty. I'm going to check it out.

Thetasigma, thanks for the info on twistys and springs.

I think with discount the 4/7 mini 1XAA is both a twisty and under 40 bucks but haven't shopped there for some time though do have AA twisty lights from them. Working for years now.

edit.

Code cpf12 should save 12% if I remember with free shipping.

The L3 L10 is also a good choice because it comes in a high CRI 219B and has a firefly mode that runs for 147 hours.

Maratac currently offers a "Tactical Personal Flood Light" which is a twistie task light. Their other AA twisties are out of stock.

Well, I decided to go old school.....Bought a Gerber infinity ultra task light! Twisty and one level of light. Can't get more simple than that. $16 is also a great feature!

I understand it has a memory mode

Amazon reviewers thought it to be as good or better than my CMG ultra, so we'll see how it holds up.

Thanks for all your suggestions

Bill

It is a shame there isn't a solid CPF review of that light. Though mine should be ready next week
