Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Not luxury, but I keep a small AAA flashlight with me nearly all the time.

Easier to handle and faster to use than a phone light. Also doesn't use phone battery. I clip it on my hat if I need both hands like taking out the trash.

I have an Olight i3T but I would try out the i3T 2. More lumens and better battery efficency.

How do you clip it to our hat ? Like this ?

The Olight i3T and the i3T 2 have a bidirectional clip.

This is a less-than-20 usb-c rechargeable light. Not AAA, but honestly I'd take this over AAA. I got this one at Home Depot.

Few dollars over OP's request, but an Olight Oclip is straight awesome for a multipurpose light. Simple UI, super lightweight, long lasting, quick charging (USB-C), magnetic or clip-on, extra LED for red light.

I clip mine to the cross piece on my hiking pack to illuminate the trail. I've also used the red blinky light so my wife can be certain where I am, nobody think I'm a deer and shoots at me, and so 4-wheelers can spot me.
