These lights also come in a single mode version.

I keep a magnet stuck to the clip, to pull the batteries out without having to take the flashlight off the mount (which is difficult and can actually destroy the mount). I also carry spare batteries, as these go out quite suddenly when the lithium battery is discharged below a certain point.


Edit: One of these lights is bright enough. I just have this thing about symmetry.
