ARC stuff is really made solid. If you can get your hands on the AAA version I would highly suggest it.

I have the AA and AAA and LS and 4+ (yes I like my flaslights) and there is no much difference between AA and AAA besides bulk.

If you like your light concentrated try Inova X1. It has a real lens build in that concentrates the beam and gives it a further throw but for close up work you are stuck with a 10 inch circle.
