Perfect EDC light
Small, bright, lightweight, programmable. Perfect EDC light. There really isn't a reason/excuse to not carry a flashlight - everyday. The ProTac 1L-1AA is a great flashlight and I think it will end up passing up the ProTac 1L and 2L models in popularity. If you were like me, you are wondering - "how can a flashlight take a small CR123A and a AA battery?". When you unscrew the cap, you will notice the AA battery slides down into a retainer that has a spring on the bottom side. The AA will protrude out of the end of the flashlight, but you just compress the battery down as you screw on the end cap. Easy. The CR123A's fit flush. It's a great concept. Ten-Tap programmable so you can run it in different modes: High, Low/High, or High/Strobe/Low. Just momentary press the end cap 9 times and press to click on the 10th. Great flashlight.
*UPDATE*
It has been one year since this review. I have carried this light in my left back pocket daily. A few drops, scuffs and scratches but it is holding up just fine. Wrapped 14" inches of duct tape around the middle because duct tape is always good to have with you. And, it adds a little grip too. It's a great light.
