I went to an outdoor event in the country side (no street lighting) where I camped overnight - because I knew it was going to be dark I packed a few (ha-ha!) LED lights for the occassion.
They all performed well - it was just because the Dorcy 1AAA was in my pocket on me at all times (it's my EDC) that it got used the most - like visiting the port-a-john - which are basically pitch dark inside and one can easily splash one's shoes....
I found the Dorcy 1AAA was great for holding in the mouth - I prefer to use the lips over teeth bite and the rubber inserts made this very comfortable and confidence inspiring.
I also walked a number of times across unlit fields (it was a 3/4 moon). Again the Dorcy 1AAA's larger hot-spot and good wide side-spill made this easy, even when sharing with a friend - we spotted and avoided an ankle-breaker hole, that my friend knew about - but the flashlight picked out on the walk in both directions.
Even if it may not be the brightest flashlight (I brought at least 3 other significantly brighter LED lights) - the Dorcy 1AAA gave adequate light coverage for me to use with confidence outdoors in unlit countryside.
