Pros: A very useful every day light. The 5 different settings come in handy, though there's not much everyday use for the Strobe, or SOS mode. Haven't done any run time tests, but with a lithium battery, I haven't had to replace it yet, and I've been using it for at least 3 months now. I use it almost every day. Can't recommend enough.
Cons: The threads for the flashlight were either dirty, or needed to be broken in. I suggest adding some WD-40, or other lubricant to the threads to assist in the screw motion.
Other Thoughts:
Bottomline: I'd buy again in a heartbeat. The output is amazing for such a small single battery light. If you're looking for something small to carry in your pocket without getting in the way, then look no further.
Love it!!!

Pros: built very well. very bright. just enough modes. very compact. nice spot & good spill. nice white light. I dropped it by accident on concrete and it still works fine
Cons: threads came dry and full of machine metal bits... not a big deal though and cleaned up easy
Other Thoughts: too bad it's sold out. it's a really great light. I use it on my bike for riding at night. Illuminates the road nicely
Bottomline: great light. this one is a winner!

Pros: good price
small size
Cons: chanche of modus not as easy as could be.
Other Thoughts: I've tested the Runtime with AA batteries on the high modus. It last for 1h 20min with an 1400 mAh battery
Bottomline: Very good Price. Would buy again if available.

Pros: uses AA batts, is small and very bright for an AA light. This light is brighter on high using NIHM than my ARC LSHP with a new primary CR123.
Modes are useful to have.
Cons: DOH!!! none
Other Thoughts: 1 point off for the emitter not being perfectly centered in build quality
Bottomline: amazing light at an amazing price.
(note: I could care less about DX points, I wrote the review because this light rocks)
