Well, no offense but I wont be trading in the Titanium slabs on my Sebenza for Aluminum any time soon. Oh did I say "soon"... I meant "ever". <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Wouldn't want steel either. Too much weight. I think when you want more strength than aluminum provides and you are counting weight to the ounce, or even the gram then titanium is the best thing available at this point in time. I'd buy a titanium flashlight (provided that it conducts electricity well enough) since it would stronger than aluminum and weigh less than steel.
