My son is going into some theatre work and a little while ago 'killed' his minimag AA light again. I should say that 'he' didn't kill it... minimags just fry on him.....no joke-they just die. Multiple leaking BRAND NEW batteries! So I went to wally world....found a $3 Ray O Vac (standard denial-no connection) AAA 'keychain' light.

Now I carry an ARC (also standard denial-no connection).....wouldn't trade it....but I'm not spending $35 on a light for him until I know something that 'small' won't get lost....

The $3 little thing is really nice. Decent beam. Standard battery size that's easy to get. Inexpensive. Seems durable. Check it out.
