I’ve been looking for slim penlights using Parametrek but many of them (e.g. Reylight Pineapple) have been discontinued. What are the best options for 10880 (“2xAAA”, but with Lithium support) penlights these days? High CRI is a priority here.

I don’t think the Reylight Pineapple 2xAAA has been discontinued, they just come in waves, often with different materials or machining, and the popular ones sell out fast. I would contact Rey and ask when the next batch might be.

Its not a “2 AAA”, but a “2 AA”: high CRI:
I’ve handled one before giving it away as a gift. It’s a nice light but the two modes of 20lm and 600lm are too far apart, in my opinion. If they really insist on 2 ode only, either go low with 20/350 or go high with 60/600 (stepping down with temperature).
I found the 20lm too low for casual use but the 600lm too high for most uses.
3 mode like the AA version would be ideal.
If someone reaches out to Rey for ETA on aluminium 2xAAA light, please update us! I’m on the hunt for 10880 light too
Thanks all for the recommendations. The Acebeam PT20 was intriguing but I ended up getting the Segaiha Ti Penlight from Rey because of the finish and lack of branding. Revisited this thread with perfect timing since I think a batch dropped yesterday/today (Sep 10), both titanium and aluminium are in stock right now.
The “surgeon” lights were interesting but I wanted an ultra thin uniform design to hide away perfectly, wasn’t a big fan of the tapered/flared head.
(Mods, let me know if I’m not supposed to be posting in old threads. I couldn’t find anything in the rules against it.)

Maybe you can choose a flashlight with higher power.
