Thanks, Majer. I think you're going to like the i3T 2 EOS, especially if you put a 10440 Lithium battery in it. They're 3.7 volts instead of 1.5 volts, but you need a lithium battery charger that goes up to 4.2 volts to charge them. You can also use rechargeable NiMH batteries but they're only 1.2 volts. You can put a 10440 battery in the little i3E EOS but it wasn't made for it and will get hot before long. If you want a lot of light for a moment, you can't can't beat it for its size, but I don't know how long the battery will last. An alkaline AAA is supposed to last 45 minutes and a NiMH for 70 minutes, but probably close to 72 lumens, not 90, which still isn't bad for a single AAA the size of a pinky finger. But the i3T 2 EOS will put out 300 lumens with a 10440 battery, 200 lumens with a AAA alkaline, and maybe 160 lumens with a NimH battery. That's a heck of a difference between the NiHM and the 10440. I got a bunch of them on Amazon, cheap.

The O Clip will ride in my shirt pocket as back-up to my EDC Streamlight.
If it's as good as it looks like it will be, I might be an O Light convert.  ;D :D

Most of my shirts don't have pockets, long sleeves, or intact collars. :)  I cut open the front of my T-shirts because they're too small for my 19" neck, and I feel like I'm being strangled. But I did buy some work shirts and long sleeve T-shirts for camping and riding my ATV. When you're wearing something like a Carhartt or Dickies work shirt instead of a plain T-shirt it saves your arms some wear and tear, riding through the woods. I can put my Oclip in the pocket then pop it out and clip it on when I need it. I have an i1R 2 Pro flashlight on my key ring, which I just remembered to plug into my computer to recharge. It runs up to 12 hours at 5 lumens on a battery the same diameter as a AAA, but only half as long. And it's done charging already. I just had to top it off. I plan on using the Oclip a lot when I'm camping, instead of using a headlamp, but I have an 1,100 lumen Perun 2 Mini headlamp if I need a lot of light or more runtime. I don't think I've used my old headband light since I bought that one. It has a small plastic light that sticks onto a non-adjustable elastic headband.
