I have been using a white Photon II nightly for the last 7 months. It is a 
good backup light, to use in the tent or shelter. I will not us one to hike 
with at night, it is not bright enough to be able to tell if it is a stick or 
a snake laying on the trail.

Forget it if you need to change the batteries at night, without another light 
to see what your doing.

It is a great little light if you have to work at night. I use it mostly to 
check on my Mother. Who some may remember is bedbound. Brite enought to see 
that she is ok, but not brite enought to wake her.
