I've tried out a handful of Armytek lights at this point, and I'm very happy with them. The build quality seems robust, with thoughtful features like deep set stainless steel bezels and double o-rings for added water resistance.
This little Tiara is no exception. The UI is easy to use, the diffused beam is just as lovely as it was with the Elf C2, and the magnetic charging is convenient. The tiny size of this one means that runtimes aren't as spectacular as an 18650 powered light, but it also means this little thing disappears into most pockets and can still put out 900 lumens when you need it to. I'm not sure that I'm entirely sold on the 18350 form factor for most use cases, but it's great for a quick night hike when you might need a bit of extra power to see a greater distance.
