Infinity Ultra Task Light, White LED, Black Body
Amazon.com Product Review:
How much do you know about LED lights? These things are incredible-they use hardly any power, yet kick out a huge amount of light for their size. Also, LEDs are built inside a solid case, which makes them much more durable than incandescent lights and their easily-shattered glass bulbs. And they have a huge lifespan: while the average incandescent bulb may last-at best-50,000 hours before it burns out, an LED can last 100,000 hours or more.
This is why it's exciting to manufacturers starting to use this technology in flashlights. How many times have you really needed to use your flashlight, only to find that the batteries are dead or that the bulb is burnt out or broken? Gerber's Infinity Ultra ups the reliability factor with its LED technology that, according to them, will last 100 hours or more on the included AA batteries. This thing is sturdy too-Gerber coats its circuitry with epoxy, which holds everything in place if you drop it or accidentally smack it against a rock.
The company claims that the Infinity Ultra is waterproof down to 10 feet. Not having access to 10 feet of water, I filled up my bathtub and dropped it in there for a minute or so. Sure enough, the flashlight still worked, and without any noticeable lack of brilliance.
Though the Infinity Ultra's beam is very bright for its size, this is not the best flashlight for navigating unlit country roads at night or for exploring abandoned warehouses. It is perfect for camping, however, where its durability, small size, and light weight make it ideal for hauling in a pack and illuminating a tent.
Overall, a great little product from a reliable manufacturer.--Josh Dettweiler

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Very nice small flash
I just got this light today. For using one AA battery, it seems quite bright to me. It's small enough to clip to my pants pocket and stay there without notice.
I've looked around a bit, including seeing some of my friends' small lights, and I can't really see how you can beat this one for the price. (I paid $16.xx)
Rating:  - great flashlight with one huge shortcoming
I've had my flashlight for about a year. The battery life is very good, which is why I'm trying to change the battery after more than a year of occasional use. Here's the problem; the battery is such a tight fit that it just won't come out. I've emailed Gerber to see what can be done, but this seems like a big design problem that will just end up happening again if the battery isn't changed often.
Rating: - Great Light
I bought this light for every day carry. It's very reliable and well made. This light gets used almost daily and is a constant companion.
Rating: - Single AA, a bit bulky
Battery life is good, but build quality leaves a bit to be desired.
Lack of a reflector is dumb and only hurts the light output.
A bit bulky. The clip frequently gets in the way when trying to turn it on.
Blue tint
All in all, it's not terrible, but there are far better ways to spend your money. It should be $10, and would be if the Gerber name wasn't on it.
The following light is a bit more money, but it is far superior in build quality, a bit slimmer and ... Read More
Rating: - Best keychain flashlight
It's bright and has a tightly focused beam (great for making shadow pictures
if you have children). It takes one AA battery (which you can easily find, not
some obscure $25 hearing aid battery). If you take off the clip it fits in your
pocket with your keys. Only downside is that the black coating does seem to
rub off. I don't know where it went -- I suppose the washing machine -- but
after a few years of carrying it around you'll end up with a dull metallic-finish ... Read More
