I have exactly the same preference, unfortunately bright little throwers are very scarce. Anything that throws is at least 18650 size and people tend not to care about size as long as it throws. A RC-G2 format flashlight with a smooth reflector and modern led (i.e. XP-E2 torch) is not available. I have made a few dedomed XP-E2 zoomies with the Cofly KX FH10 (AA-size with larger lens than the sk68) that throw 50kcd, but I would love a reflector version of that. Look out for the new X6/K6 group buy, it is a combined offer, but the AA-sized K6 (is being developed now for BLF) should have decent throw (and great quality!).
