Hi,
I've been carrying a Mag Solitaire modded with a 3W Luxeon on my keychain for a while now, but I think it is slowly dying. It flickers a lot and as you twist to turn the light on, it comes on, goes off, comes, on etc as you twist the head.
Sooooo.... I'm looking for a light to replace it. I'd prefer AAA but really wouldn't mind going to AA if need be. My main criteria, in no particular order, are:
1) Output - looking for throw more than anything
2) Runtime - don't care about runtime; would rather have more throw/output than runtime
3) Power - very happy to run on lithium AAA / AA if it helps with just a little bit more output
4) Build - looking for a well built, quality light
5) Size - the smaller the better. Obviously, I appreciate that a AA is going to be slightly larger that a AAA. But I wouldn't want to go a huge amount bigger than a Solitaire
I hope someone out there has some advice and guidance that they can offer to me.
Many thanks,
Face
