OK DealExtreme or other flashlight experts....

I have a Fenix L2D Q5 which is great. I'm now using it on High or Turbo mode since it's dark out in the mornings and it's great.

I'm looking for a bright second light, 1 or 2 AAs (1 preferred), which has a bike-friendly 2-4 Hz "flash" mode. Apparently the 7+ Hz stobe on the Fenix & other lights makes people sick and can be dangerous. And I won't use the "SOS" modes.

I guess anything 30-60 lumens is sufficient. It would be great if it's multi-mode with a long-running low mode for around the house, but not necessary.

Anything out there?
