Best Mini Maglite-sized flashlight?

I apologize if this topic has already been covered, but I'm looking for the best reasonably-priced (less than $75, say) Mini Maglite-sized light? I have a few of those sheaths (like the Pock-Its XL) that are sized just right for that light, and I like the sheaths too much to give them up. Anyone make a quality, modern LED light in that size?

Why not go with the LED version of the MiniMag

They are pretty bright, good priced and definitely fit the sheath

Or you can convert your light (if you still have a regular MiniMag) with the Nite eze led conversion drop in

with. Poncho.

I carried a Mini Mag 2xAA LED model(which costs $20-$30) for a while and the 277Lm is about as good as it gets in the size range for the money. I downsized to a 2xAAA sometime back(111Lm), but still have the LED MiniMag.

The only one that I own that will slide into a Mini-Mag Holster is the Eagletac D25A2 Mini which is a pretty sweet light for sure!
This one is not a clicky switch version like most in the D25 series and I am not sure if the Clicky version of this is the same diameter although my D25A Clicky single cell is.

This light does not have a larger diameter head like the Mag but does have a screw attached clip which should keep it from sliding through the holster if that will be an issue with an opened bottom holster tube?

The Drop-Ins for the Mag will also obviously work too as already mentioned but in my experience these are not the equal really of a more modern well designed light like the ET either.
