Give it a look.. They have a 200 lumen version for a little less money as well.
Cheers, that looks quite interesting. I've put it on my list.

I've been testing batteries and the Cherrybomb 100 specs are wildly optimistic.
Best I've got so far is some Eneloop 750mAh running for 22 hours on Day Flash (still running, just), the spec says 96 hours.

Edit: 23.5 hours from an Eneloop 750mAh.

So I've ordered some other batteries to try
.
Xtar 1200 mWh lithium 1.5v - Xtar are made in China, but they've got a very good rep.
EBL 1100 mAh NiMH 1.2v - also very good rep and made in China
.
The Xtar 1620 mWh have long delivery times so testing the 1200 instead.
