What's you budget?
About SGD $100.00 per torch thank.
As a beginner that have not buy any torch which of the above you will recomend for me
to buy regardless of size & runtime.
Thank for your help

You can consider Fenix E01 for a start, SGD20, so it is quite economical.

choice 1:
Gerber Infinity Ultra about $40.

(if bright is ur thing, this light will disappoint)

Fenix LD01

choice 3:
LED Lenser P5
. cooler version of Maglite in 1AA form

previously models not highly rated due to marketing hype, but i had 1 of their lights that outshine a supposedly better light, the Pelican 2390.
like to add that i am very particular about click switches, never a fan of reverse clickies. owned both. :embrass:
forward click- in 'off' position, press halfway for momentary on
reverse click- in 'off' position, click to constant 'on', then press halfway for momentary 'on'

400 lumens is bright but because its LED, its gonna produce a lot of spill light and not much throw.
unless u have good reflectors.
the light i have above is also ard 400 lumens

Hmm......$100.00 and AA batts
ok, here are my recommendations:
a) Fenix L1D (1XAA), L2D (2xAA)
b) Jetbeam-I Pro (2xAA)
c) Fenix TK20 (2xAA) - if you like an incandescent style yellowish beam light
For AA batts, can easily find quite a lot of good brands all depending on your kind of usage. To name a few, Inova, Electrolumens, Princeton Tech, Streamlight, Underwater Kenetics (UK), Gerber, ... they can be bought at various online stores (go google them). There is a shop at selegie that carry some of these brands, but I find their mark up is really stupendous. Your choice.
