This is the Natural finish Maratac AA , has 3 modes activated by twisting the body closed and open , starts in Low - then Medium , and then High . This light was designed for AA use only , so running a 14500 may very well damage the driver .

As the pictures show , Maratac has earned a good reputation for building a quality product , with very good consistency from one light to another , and this light is no exemption , its very well made .  This light is all it can be , and rather than saying how good it is [ which it is ] I will just say I have no complaints , there simply is nothing to complain about .

Nice thick o-rings and pocket clip. I bet it's  pricy.

I was just trying to prove them wrong on the "smallest" part, but it seems that AA Tank007 (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.24125) is in fact thinner, but longer - so it's a draw ;)

I thought so too, till I measured the length of my Tank. Must sit down and calculate the volumes of both.

Oh that is a nice light!  Why can't it be a clicky, though?

Hello,

 

Love the reviews available on this forum.  I followed you folks from the CPF boards.

 

I'm thinking about picking this light up as I think its just the perfect size for pocket EDCing.  I have the ITP A3 (AAA version) and like that light a lot.  A weak spot of the A3 is that the removable clip is not tight enough against the body of the light to make for worry free pocket carry. The A3 has pushed up out of my pocket on a couple of occassions and I no longer pocket clip this light as I fear it would be lost (I keychain carry it).  I'm hoping someone with the Maratac AA can comment on this pocket clip.  Does the clip grip tight enough (have enough tension) to use daily as a pocket carry without risk of losing? From the pics and video I've seen, I can tell the clip is more substantial but I still wonder if it will clamp tight enough on the pocket to be a functional pocket carry light.

 

Thanks!!

There not super tight , but I found them to be good enough for a shirt pocket , I would hazard , the flimsier the material the light is attached to , the less secure it will be .
