I've been EDCing an Arc AAA Premium on my keychain for years. It's a little tank--not powerful (only about 10 lumens) but adequate for keychain use. My wife and daughter have Fenix EO1 AAAs, sufficient for their EDC use. And they're inexpensive enough so that if you lose them...oh well. I also carry an older model NiteCore EZ AA in my man-bag. I appreciate all the extra lumens, bells, and strobes that are available out there, but personally prefer simpler one- or two-power small flashlights.

Jetbeam BC10. The size of Sunwayman, but half the cost and >200 lumen. Used 1 CR123. Hi/Low setting forward clicky tail switch. 100% willydigger approved. :D

Ive been getting back into flash lights .

Nite Core, Surefire, Jetbeam and others.

Really more also with modifications of lights and LEGO.

The SureFire E1E would fit your bill (but no longer made) Secondary market.

But Nitecore's new EC1 is what I am getting.

CREE XP-G (R5) LED
280 lumens
5 modes
very small with clip
1 x CR123A
Length: 65mm
http://www.nitecore.com/productDetail.aspx?id=24

Got the Nitecore TM11 inbound also, 2000 lumens
SureFire bodies for E2E and 6P.

My original 6P is about 20 yrs old and looks well.

I haven't used it in years and just got new bulb.

S/F,
CEYA!

Hey Ceya, ever consider breathing life into the 6p via a LED drop-in?
