Damn dude, 3000 lumens HID!! Wow, I want one of those for my photography business. Me, my favorite flashlight right now is just a daily 80 lumens Dorcy flashlight.

How much light does the fenix produce? (Lumen)
EDIT: Yikes, it only produces 10 lumens? I'd expect more out of a $15 flashlight, even though that's cheap as hell, there are $5 lights you can get with more illumination.
If you like your light, you should check out the first light I posted in this thread, the Inova T1 mini light. The circumference is about the size of a quarter and is about 4.5-5" long,
But it produces 100 lumens instead of 10.
It'll cost you just over $50 but its sooo worth it.

Well, my G2 w/ LED produced about 100 lumens, is about that size, and was about $50 also. It's great when I need more light, for instance changing a flat tire at night, etc., but it's also much bigger, and there's no way I'd consider carrying it around everywhere in my pocket (between my cell phone, knife, keys, wallet, smokes, etc. I have way too much crap already). The Fenix is like a mini-mag lite (one of those AAA ones) that you might keep on a keychain, except it's much brighter.
Keep in mind that the E01 is literally about the size of 1 AA battery.

super rugged and made of a solid piece of aluminum and still produces
100 lumens on two 123A batteries which are tiny. It also has a run time of like 15 hours IIRC. It's so small that I can put it into the change pocket of my pants!
