Leatherman Monarch 400 LED flashlight questions

[parnass]

Seeking comments about the Leatherman Monarch 400 1AA flashlight from owners.

What kind of LED does it employ?
Does the tail switch provide for momentary operation?
Build quality?
How is the beam quality?
Floody?
Hotspot size?

They are priced as low as $17.16 (plus shipping) on Amazon.com.

Thanks.

I can't help much but, I read it has a spot beam surrounded by an even spill beam. I would go with the Maratac or Fenix for EDC myself. They are in the same ballpark money wise & have good reviews from what I have read.

I cant say about the monarch 400, but I like my 300 alot. I also take back what i said about my serc s3. I put a new battery in it all i can say is WOW! Just goes to show the battery they send you with it may not be good even though its new.

Thanks for the replies.  Not many people own a Monarch 400, I suppose.

it's nice, very nice build, and has a reverse clicky greenish tint light very close to the 45lumen stated, OP reflector gives very nice smooth beam. all aluminum body, no tail stand, no clip. IF you can get it for that price is an excellent deal I payed allot more for it.

edit: it has a Cree Q2

A Cree Q2 was also used in the Leatherman LGX 200.
