You could've tried the LD09, too, they do seem rather similar, both are AA lights... I haven't tried the LD09, though.
You go do your online research, next month's almost here
They were selling for about $35 new I think. Basically the same flashlight as the itp a2 or olight i2. Great as they can run on both aa and aaa batteries due to the strong backspring.
Okay, so I'm really getting that 4Sevens Q Mini I'll be able to get it only on Thursday, though, can't wait. Looks like a great light from what I've seen online as reviews. Not much of output from an AA battery by today's standards, but the size is great, I think. It's nearly as big as an AAA.
@Aloha, It definitely looks nice! In appearance it looks like a mix of the Olight O'Pen (the top and stuff around the clicky) and the Preon 2 (the broadening bezel )

I do wish there was a mode between the 24lm and 252lm, maybe 65-90lm ? I dont mind the strobe at all but I often wonder about mode spacing. I do like the spec'd run times and will only run this light on Eneloops. It certainly is bright on Hi and the firefly is terrific.
Ordered myself an EagleTac D25A. It took a long time to decide on this one I hope it serves me well.

I'd agree except I don't think the Preon was particularly stand-out design wise. Smooth and "pen shaped" isn't all that original. It's right, but a lot of pen lights have managed it before.
