You could always get a TerraLux Ministar II module and drop it in a Minimag or get a Streamlight Jr Luxeon. Just how big of a flashlight are you willing to EDC?
I have both the Gerber Trio and the Streamlight Jr. Luxeon - I like them both and they make a pretty fair tandem. Another light to consider is the Gerber LX 3.0. These lights are referred to in this thread.

Yeah, the Gerber LX3.0 is much brighter than the Trio, but much longer. I don't know if he'd want to EDC something that big. Another option would be the Elektro Lumens XM-3. It's bigger than the Trio, but not as long as the LX 3.0.
If you don't want 3AA and you don't want 123's, then there are still a few options that are relatively small:
1) you can find a few Lux's that run on 3AAA.
2) Streamlight Jr. Luxeon 2AA
3) Elektrolumens XM-3
4) modded MiniM*g
5) UK 4AA and 4AA eLED

There's also the new Dorcy 2 AA Luxeon, but I've seen no reviews for it yet. Caveat emptor, YMMV.
You can search and find runtimes here somewhere. From memory it seems like it is 8-10 hours.
I just gave out 2 for Christmas. I opened the packages and loaded them with Eveready Lithiums so they would have better "shelf life".
