from one of my coworkers tonight. I commented on it and she took it off her keychain and gave it to me. It doesn't have a real on/off button and it's about twice the size of my PrincetonTec PulsarII but it puts out a pretty good cirle of light. A bigger circle of light than the PulsarII. It's pretty neat. And hey, it was free.

I've had a few of those for a few years. Good lights. I had a red and a blue, so I would run around the shipyard in a golf cart flashing the lights... No, I don't do that on public roads. I have a real strobe and siren for that :eek:

I still have them around somewhere, but they all need to go back for new batteries. I won't buy any more until they put REAL switches on them, so I go with Photons for now.
 
I just hauled one out of the clothes dryer ... yeah, I dropped it in a shirt pocket and forget to take it out before laundry day. A bit of the paint was worn off. It worked fine. My daughter was so impressed she took it. :D
 
Heck, you might be better off without an on-off switch. I got tired of my Microlight coming on accidentally because it would rub against my keys in my pocket. It happened so frequently that after replacing the batteries twice in one month, I just gave up and went to a pocket light that doesn't have a switch at all.

If I need a light that can be switched on, I have a Surefire. If I only need a light for a second or two, it doesn't need an on-off switch.
 
I've been wearing an ASP Sapphire around my neck for the last few years and I've yet to need new batts. I have a green ASP Mirage that broke open, but this one keeps on ticking. It is bigger than a Photon or Inova, but the clip is pretty useful.
 
I have an ASP with a white LED and clear body that went through a a wash AND dry cycle, clipped to a belt loop. Still works fine, but I usually use Photons now, just because they're smaller.
 
My house is rife with these little lights. My old company used to hand out those lighted pens with red and blue lights and our company info.

Further, I carry an Arc AAA LED.

My wife bought me another little key chain light on her recent trip to Vegas. Press the button, and the blue light strobes.

I keep telling her, what I really need is a Ghilli suit, not the lights.
