The ReyLight Custom-Lumintop‬ Tool Ti is undoubtably the best AAA flashlight of 2016.
Light, strong and beautiful (like The One I gave it to). Nice tint, good intervals and capable of tailstanding.
Though not intended to be used as a survival light: the only minus-point is operating it with gloves on.

Maybe there can be a version with two tailcaps (2nd is protruding rubber, or magnetic) like the regular Tool has.

1. what’s best or your favorite aaa flashlight in 2016, what’s the advantages and disadvantages about it?

I really like my Jetbeam JET-Mu, it looks great, is pretty easy to turn one one handed, puts out a good amount of light for it’s size, and doesn’t have any silly blinky modes. I only wish it had a reversible pocket clip so I could clip it to the brim of my cap.

2. what are the new features that you are looking forward to see for 2017 aaa flashlight?

Like I said above, I’d like to see reversible pocket clips and I’d also like to see more lights with high CRI leds.

1. My favourite AAA flashlight is Astrolux A01. Great design and performance, and quite cheap.

2. More colours (like copper - it is very nice), more CRI.

I would like more holders, attachments, brackets for smaller lights. They can be used as a universal hat light, headlamp, etc. - so I could attach random, smaller AAA lights to them.

Lumintop Tool.
The Good: Compact and Clicky.

2. what are the new features that you are looking forward to see for 2017 aaa flashlight

- High CRI

- Clicky

  • Able to use 10440

1) The Lumintop Tool Ti, Rey version, pro’s: looks fantastic, lightweight and strong, great modes, start in low with no memory, great high CRI led. cons: it is AAA so runtime is lousy, driver is inefficient: high mode can be higher, low modes can have longer runtime.

2) a bit smaller than the Tool should be doable, but a switch is a must! no twisty. A 3500K 92 CRI Nichia 219C led would be perfect (for me that is). Build a high quality boost driver for AAA with current controlled modes (instead of PWM-ed modes) and good user interface, this is the biggest challenge for budget flashlight builders and it would be a first!

Jet-u (AAA). Small, well-made and 3 very useable levels. Nice price too !

1 - My favorite AAA flashlight in 2016 is the small Convoy one AAA battery flashlight. It is a simple, small, robust, flashlight. Switchy, not clicky, so no risk of accidental activation. It lives in my pocket, so is always there when I need it.
2 - I would like a more neutral tint.

1. Olight I3E
2. High CRI LED
