The title speaks for itself.

Signature Lite and afterwards are 58mm and others are 91mm. Vote for one big(91mm) and one small(58mm) SAK. Look them up at Victorinox's site(or google) if you do not know any of them.

Going for CT Lite and Midnite Manager myself, for instance.

Tell me(us) if your favorite is another or custom SAK in the replies!

The voting will be for 20 days and the results will be launched at the end.

We love a poll! :D

Personally I'm not a fan of the Vic lights as they are so underpowered, but the principal is great.

As I have an XAVT and is the only light I have, I voted for that!

I voted Huntsman lite. I think it's one of the best saks there are for tool layout.

No option for none? :D

The output they give is kind of underwhelming. :( There was a mod somewhere here before that I liked very much. Someone built a new circuit board for it and had multiple mods and higher output. Now if I could just find it. :think: I'd vote for that one. ;)

No option to vote for my favorite, the Voyager Lite. This is my nightstand/"non-airplane travel" SAK - perfect to finding stuff at night without waking up your SO with a 1,000,000 candlepower krypton bulb flashlight. Clock is great for resetting clock radios after power outages, too.

I'm thinking of getting a Spartan Lite, lately, as a lightweight EDC option, but that's more for the phillips than for the light, to be honest. I mainly think the light is a better addition to a SAK than the magnifying glass, which I have absolutely no use for.

I voted for the Huntsman Lite, because Huntsman, and for the Midnight Minichamp because Holy Tool Density, Batman. I would like to see 91mm scales with lights built in, rather than having to mod them together or add a whole layer.

My vote is for the Signature Lite; I find the 91mm lights to be too easily turned on and - for that size, better replaced with either Phillips screwdriver or the magnifying glass.  For the 58mm size, I find the Minichamp to already be almost too much of a beast, and the Signature Lite a nice compromise. :)

The only one I have is the Voyager Lite, but didn't see that listed

also note that the red light ones, older, are less bright than the white light ones, when you buy.

Although the red ones are extremely dim, you will get more runtime out of the red LEDs verses the white LEDs.

I only have the XAVT and my son a Classic with light (my Minichamp doesn't have light). So I voted for Midnite Minichamp and XAVT.
But If I was going to buy one for EDC it would be the Expedition or Huntsman Lite.

Voyager Lite added.

Unintentionally made the results show to any voters. (I could not chack it again for some reason)
