The shorter style is easier to attach to my belt when i'm walking the dogs. Great lite, swivel head make it easierto use, around outside and inside. Long life battery.
This is an amazing little light that helps me identify phosphorescent gemstones. Also, the charge lasts a very long time. Works great for charging things that glow or for curing uv resin.
Nice clip and loop for portability. Cost for 2 of these is cheaper than the one i bought 2 years ago. Never regret. That is priceless!
