[at-l] a lightweight alternative ??

[bakpakr@planetcable.net (Bob Wardecker)]

They look promising. I saw something similar at my local outfitters a while
ago. That was b4 my I was looking to go lighter than I was at the time. But
from the display they had there the lights did not seem all that bright.
That was in a well lighted store so not sure of the brightness in the
backwoods. I am sold on photons now. Just ordered 2 of the white ones. I
have no experience with them so I ordered 2 one I will have with me and one
ready to be mailed to me as a replacement.
