Sweet little brass AA light. The DQG Tiny AA has been around a few years and nicely reviewed by Freeme and Walkintothelight stainless steel versions. Swi from BG sent me this to comment on. Discount codes can be had by contacting Freeme or M4DM4X. If Swi sends a coupon code, I will post it here as well.
edit… Swi sent a link for this light if you’re interested. (non-affiliate) and coupon code: cd06d0
works out to about $27. Not bad for a solid brass neutral white light
Solid Brass, AA/14500, TIR lens, XP-G2, Neutral White emitter, 230 lumen (claimed with 14500). Low, medium, high, twisty. It comes with a couple spare o-rings, circle clip, and a pocket clip. I just carry it in the bottom of my pants pocket since the clip will most likely tear up your pocket. It weighs 1.83oz. (51g) with a 14500 installed.
Super smooth threads as most brass light are, can expect a runtime of around 60 minutes on high, and you must use button top 14500’s, or standard AA’s. Not too much to say about this light that hasn’t already been said. I polished the light up a bit for the pictures. It came fairly tarnished which looked good. I’ll let it go back to the tarnish look.
Comes apart easy. Small but strong neodymium magnet that sits in a pocket under the battery contact board.
This is why you should use a button top, to make contact past the foam pad
Yes, the magnet is that strong
TIR lens, with glow in the dark tape inside
Size comparison to a 14500/AA battery
Size comparison to other AA/14500 flashlights. L to R. DQG Tiny AA, Acebeam L-10, Jet 1-MK, Acebeam M-10, and Reylight Ti Lan special edition.
Nice smooth neutral white beam, with very little tint shifting or rings. It looks really nice outdoors.
If you are looking for a small light to toss in your pocket and don’t mind a twisty, this is certainly a very nice option. Personally, while I enjoy and own a few large mega lumen lights, these small pocket lights are what I use 95% of the time.
