How are the Streamlight TwinTasks? I don't have one, but I see they have a single CR123A cell xenon/LED unit for around $21. Looks small, and you have the LED backup in case your xenon doesn't work, maybe because you dropped the light and jarred the bulb.

They are well reviewed but I think even the 1x123A is much too bulky for pocket carrry. For camping/backpack use, the 2L or 3AA look great. I really like hybrid lights though, and someday I'm looking forward to getting a Surefire Aviator, which may be the best of the lot, particularly if they end up shortening the tailcap.
