Our Best One Yet!
Introducing the AAAx2 Extreme - Tactical Light by Maratac® Rev 3, now in its latest and greatest version! This flashlight is designed to deliver exceptional performance and versatility in various situations.
Featuring the new Cree XP-G3 LED, the AAAx2 Extreme boasts a larger domed emitter with increased power compared to its predecessor, the G2. With an impressive 425 lumens, this flashlight offers an even smoother flow beam, ensuring optimal illumination. The beam has been slightly widened for improved color rendering, providing enhanced visibility and clarity.
One of the standout features of the Maratac® Inspection AAAx2 Extreme is its Lunar Low mode, which emits a gentle 1.5 lumens of light. This mode is ideal for situations that require minimal illumination, such as reading maps or preserving night vision. Additionally, the flashlight incorporates a glow O-ring around the reflector, making it easy to locate in the dark.
The AAAx2 Extreme is built with practicality in mind. It sports a black powder coat pocket rotating pocket clip, allowing for easy attachment and secure transportation. The flashlight is lightweight, weighing only 22.8 grams or 0.8 oz (without batteries), and has a compact size of 5.0" O.A.L. x 0.58" inch width. The Type 3 Military Grade Anodizing gives it a durable matte finish, ensuring long-lasting performance in challenging environments.
Operating the AAAx2 Extreme is simple and intuitive. It features a medium, low, and high mode brightness control, enabling quick adjustments to suit your needs. To turn on the light, press and click the back thumb switch into Medium mode. Lightly press again to switch to Low mode, and once more for High mode. Pressing and clicking anytime will turn the light off, providing convenient operation.

These are great for use all over the house! I have one in my desk and use it for inspecting circuit boards, connections, etc. I keep one by the bed for power outages, etc., one in my truck and one in my laptop bag which makes finding things easy during redeye flights.
The one big issue many have had is the battery rattle - I have found an easy solution - a single wrap of Professional grade PTFE thread tape (i.e. Blue Monster) solves the problem completely!
The title says it all - and here's some additional points as to why this light should be purchased: 1) Has three (3) illumination levels of intensity. 2) Lightweight - can fit very comfortably in a shirt or trouser pocket, with a very slight profile. 3) Solid construction - this could likely be used to great effect as a kubaton. 4) Add a lightweight lockblade knife and a dependable lighter - EDC!
This is everything I want in a 2xAAA flashlight:
1. Simple tail-switch operation.
2. Partial unscrew of tail cap disables circuit so flashlight can’t turn on accidentally.
3. Moonlight light level that lasts a VERY long time. It’s enough to read a map or a book and is very inconspicuous.
4. Max light level is very good for a small flashlight.
5. Ergonomics and hand feel are impeccable.
6. Amazingly light weight.
I gave 4 units to family members who also like this flashlight.
Nice sized light with three settings. I'm not sure the lowest setting is going to be that useful, but I've just started using this flashlight. I do really like how the flashlight easily distinguishes between switch presses so you can turn the light on and off without accidentally switching brightness levels. There is a HUGE difference between brightness levels, so being able to protect yourself from inadvertent light level changes.
I bought a Streamlight because I thought it would be “better” than this one. I was wrong and this CountyComm light is still my go-to EDC. Better lumen, better construction, just better overall in my opinion.
