Comments about Gerber Omnivore Flashlight:

Pretty good light. Beam is bright and travels a good distance. I like the fact that it can be powered by three different types of batteries. Throw what you got into it and it goes. The switch needs to have a larger surface area. This makes it good for not turning on accidently but it is difficult to press the pad of your finger into the switch. If you have large fingers this flashlight would be difficult to turn on and off.

Comments about Gerber Omnivore Flashlight:

Fits well in the Rainbow of California Large Knife Case ($7) sold at REI also. Perfect size for one handed operation, thick enough that it doesn't slip out of grip easily. It's execution of multiple battery use is quite simple and elegant, with nothing to adjust, no moving parts. While not adjustable, it's beam is not lacking and generally works without need of adjustment. My only (very minor) gripe is the lanyard hole is far too small and poorly placed, i've had a lot of trouble finding a good leash that will fit it.
