Only one hour run with 2/AAs ?
Doesn't the Arc LS go several hours with the 2/AA pack ?

[/ QUOTE ]Depending on how hard each light is driven. You'll notice that specs. are 30 lumens. Compare MadMax step-up w/2AA, and that's about an hour also (@approx 30 lumen or so......I don't think that the Arc is driven quite that hard.-No free lunches to be had anywhere.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif

I looks great, but I don't find a price. It may be that the price has not been set.
I admit that the 1 hour run time is not impressive.

i actually think this is going to be a beautiful light. i luv the look of the Streamlight Jr. and to have a luxeon in there would be nice..
i'm sure you get more diminished output than just one hour.

That's a nice looking light. I hope it's in the $30 range.
Now if they would just put a Lux 3 in there, and drive it at 1 amp....

For $30, I can spare a TWAK for it. I hope this thing's made for throw, though, and doesn't just use an NX-05.

Boost only? Or boost/regulated?

Oh no!!! The task light crowd is here. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I suppose it doesn't matter, though, since it's already cast in stone (or aluminum). Plus, there's always mods. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Looks like a potentially very useful light. My only reservation is the 1 hour runtime. If it was regulated, I could live with 1 hour at nearly full brightness and then crap light output after the hour. But if its unregulated, that means this light goes from bright to dead in just one hour....not impressive performance IMO.
I'll wait for run time graphs and more detailed reports before buying this light. The size vs output does look nice though.

I emailed flashlights.com, the response was $31.99 when they are released. No date given.

Well, as a 2AA light, it has to have some sort of boost/regulator circuit. Let's hope it has an efficient current regulated driver. Can't understand the runtime, should be longer.

Short run may mean it's overdriven and that would be great. Nice form factor too. May have to give up on incandescents sooner than I thought.
