Here is the one I got. It has a red and blue led's, and a white cree led. The blue seems to be for blood trails. Cool! The red lens is great for getting in and out of the woods during deer season. Doesn't spook them light a regular light. Rated at 115 lumens and runs on 3 AAA.
I got the silver one, did not see the black one.

Used it last night at work. Wow, is it bright. Completely lit up the areas between and under the trucks. It's fatter than a mini mag, but does not seem to be any heavier in my pocket. I like it!

I bought another of the smaller version of this light this weekend. I thought it ran on the same 123 batteries as my G2, but instead it runs on CR2 batteries. Nuts! Now I have to buy different batteries for this light! Oh well - still way smaller than my G2. *sigh*

The version that runs on 3 AAA batteries seemed a bit too thick to me, otherwise I would have bought that one instead.

Great for the price, but my Fenix is much easier to carry, smaller, lighter, brighter, has multiple settings, and is STILL on the first set of batteries.

How much and from where? I like the idea of an LI battery, but I bet I could use some rechargeable LI's for the Coleman too.
