Wow. I only saw this now. (I'm a day late. =P)
4Sevens's very own Quark Series is now growing really fast and this is the latest addition to their excellent series of lights.
It's called 4Sevens Quark MiNi AA and 123 and as the name suggests, it is a very small pocket light in 2 battery variants.
Both variants are one of the smallest in class and also isn't "that" expensive as they are both US$39 shipped from 4sevens.com
Simple High-Med-Low 3-modes and hidden special modes. Personally, the CR123A model seems better. Smaller & Brighter. =)
Both uses the latest Cree XP-G R5 bin emitters and are activated via twisty mechanism. (Less things to go wrong over time)
You can pre-order them now and they are expected to ship starting November 25th.
I didn't want to 'copy' all the photos to here for good reason so please check this official forum post at CPF for more info / pics:

btw, I just pre-ordered the Quark MiNi 123. I just couldn't resist the 189 OTF lumens. (OTF = Out the front)
It seems I haven't bought a flashlight that uses RCR for a long time. Well, I can't wait till I get my hands on this!
fyi - More information about "OTF lumens" in below link:
