Greetings all!
I recently spent a fair bit of time looking at reviews of different LED keychain lights, but am still in need of some help. I'd like to get my mom a microlight for the holidays, but she has very severe arthritis so I need something that is extremely easy to operate. I personally have a Photon II, but I know that the constant-on switch would be impossible for her to use and keeping the button depressed is not practical. Suggestions, please? Anything with a twist-switch(like a Mag-Lite) is no good, since she can't rotate her wrists. I've been looking at the Inova Microlight and have read mixed reviews(although overly more positive than negative). I've also been looking at the Photon III/Freedom-type lights, but think that the rubberized switch on the Inova might be easier to grip. I actually bought an Inova Microlight at Target and it looks awesome to me, but I hate to open the package to examine it more thoroughly and compare it with my Photon II, especially since I'd like to be able to give it as a gift. Any feedback at all would be much appreciated. Thanks!
