I prefer a 1xCR123A for a pocket light, myself.


Me, too, actually. Although if the goal is the tiniest light that's still bright enough to be useful the nod goes to the AAA for me. When my little Fauxton fell off my keychain and got ran over by a car (long story...) I replaced it with a Fenix 01. A bit bigger but very nice, and in truth it's the largest light I could live with in that application (keychain).

The light I generally have in the pocket of my jacket or fleece pullover when I'm out and about is a JETBeam BC10. It's extremely powerful yet simple to use and compact. I'm not sayin' it's the best or the only one to use, just the one I prefer.
