Given how long even a 2 AAA light can run if the flash pattern is efficient (example: the SuperFlash, which fires the main LED in very short bursts), it could still be an interesting light if it has a good, attention-getting flash pattern and uses both emitters at once. Speaking of attention-getting flash patterns, check this one out:

Yep, a very catchy pattern it is. Would definitely get it but already have a Radbot (which is fortunately working) & two Superflashes. The Serfas Stop Sign AA light that I got off Amazon for $12 well exceeded my expectations. A guy caught up with me on a bike path, complimented the light & asked me its name & where I got it. And it was in a broad daylight on a sunny day. I am happy I didn't get DToplight at three times the price without blinking modes (Serfas has three very catchy ones). It is also made in Taiwan where more of quality cycling equipment tends to be made...
