So i was searching the internet for a really good flashlight that i can carry in my pocket.I found alot of results and its really hard to decide between them.I found this http://www.amazon.com/dp/B017R560VS?m=A3E6E1V9X0VZ5Q&ref\_=v_sp_detail_page and the price is really god.Also the reviews found there are positive.
The good news is waterproff because i work in hard conditions and this maybe is my solution.
Cand you give me some advices?
Do you absolutely need a AA/AAA light? Or are you potentially open to other chemistries and form factors? Is AAA the maximum size you would want?
My advice would be to look at Convoy lights (similar price range) that work with lithium ion batteries. Maybe you’ll like the S2+?

It’s a nice keychain light .
I rarely ever carry a AAA light .
If I did I’d carry a lumintop tool with a 10440 li-ion in it …or a 348 blf nichia 219B AAA.
but on your keychain this is a nice light to have .
The Olight is a good choice for a keychain sized light. If you use it a lot I would also buy some Eneloop or Tenergy NiMh cells and a good charger for them. The initial cost will save you money in time compared to buying alkalines. Avoid cheap cells and chargers as they rarely work as well as they should.

i mean its really good for me because i work in small places and its very handy for me
My most-used light is the same size and always with me on my keychain. It does well because I do not often need a better light and when I do I have others which take care of that. Small lights are very handy indeed, and that is enough reason to have one.

Although I have never used the Olight i3E, nothing I have read about it raised any concerns for me. I think you will be satisfied if you decide to buy one.
I am expecting the Olight S1 Cu (Rose Gold) to arrive any day now. It is another small flashlight from Olight. It runs on either a non-rechargeable CR123A battery or a rechargeable 16340 Li-ion battery. If you wanted a step-up from the i3E, the S1 would be a good choice. It's high mode offers a 90-second turbo blast at 500 lumens! The aluminum version sells for $50 USD at Amazon, but I have seen it for significantly less than $40 USD in group buys here at BLF.
The Olight flashlights mentioned above use "cool-white" emitters. Their light has a slight bluish tint, somewhat similar to the blue headlights you see in your rearview mirror. My preference is usually for "neutral-white" flashlights, especially for general usage.
I have a small, neutral-white flashlight, the L3 Illumination L11C Nichia 219B, that takes one AA battery. Its mode spacing is just about perfect: 0.09, 3, 30, and 140 lumens. It does an outstanding job of displaying colors accurately, and carries the same IPX8 waterproof rating that the Olights do.
I also own the neutral-white BLF 348 flashlight that Boaz mentioned above. It is a small, stainless-steel flashlight that uses one AAA battery. Its a great looking, single-mode flashlight. Its 50-lumen beam is all flood. It features an outstanding, high-CRI Nichia 219B emitter. Unfortunately, the BLF 348 is probably not a good choice for your work light, because it does not have the watertight construction you are looking for.
I like Fenix but now own a lot of the various AAA lights and I think that the top ones are mostly all excellent lights. Now the question among the best 6 or 8 seems to be the preferred operation of them.
In such close quarters you can only use a limited brightness anyway, you might want to consider whether the first setting on your AAA light is TOO bright for looking at what you are looking at, I wouldn’t want my first setting to be 100 lumens, in most situations.
This one seems perfect for you, and the on/off button on the bottom makes it easy to operate if you are using one hand to help get into a tight spot for a look at something.

This Headband/Hands-Free Flashlight Holder folds up very small, and you might want to keep it in your car or with your gear, in case you decide that you need to use your AAA as a headlamp, of course most of these AAA also just clip onto the brim of a baseball hat, but in tight spaces the hats are almost more trouble than they are worth.

The Hugsby XP-1 is also a nice light for a similar price with a tail switch and pocket clip if you like those assets.
