i5T EOS i5T-EOS
A simple, reliable AA-powered flashlight that makes an excellent gift or first quality flashlight. The i5T EOS delivers 300 lumens with a two-mode interface — just click for low, double-click for high. No complicated mode menus, no charging cables, just drop in a AA battery and go. The slim tailcap switch and pocket clip make it easy to carry, and the aluminum body with a knurled grip feels solid in hand. At under $30, this is the entry point to quality flashlights that keeps people coming back.
