Just an FYI:

There is a Nexxtech "1AA" light in circulation (Circut City, I think) which is an interesting light; but despite what is on the package, IT DOES NOT USE AN AA CELL, it uses a CR123 camera battery.

It is possible that the light you have listed uses 2 camera batteries, not two relatively inexpensive and widely available AA cells.

That's quite possible; they made that error on a 1 CR123 light about a year ago. :-/

I've got one of those 1 watt lights. I'm pretty sure mine said on the package that it used a lithium battery. It's a two stage switch on the barrell near the head. The beam is pretty broad - good for lighting up a whole room/path but probably not so good for lighting things up at a distance. I haven't used it enough th give you any real sense of runtime. It's a bit long for a single 123A light but other than that it might be a good choice for a EDC.

I caught the tail end of a commercial yesterday indicating Home Hardware is now carrying a Luxeon flashlight driven with "AA"'s. It is on my list of things to do today..
(BTW, Canadian Tire has the Thors on sale right now too, half price)
