DQG Designs' mission is to pack the most powerful light into the smallest form factor using the best materials on the market. The Fairy is a tiny 30mm light that clocks in at a feather-light 0.36 oz despite its brass hardware, but don't let its size fool you. It puts its XP-G2 emitter to work, and with its 10180 li-ion battery the Fairy pushes out an impressive 120 lumens on high and 3-4 hours runtime on its 10 lumen low. There's also no need to worry about finding the Fairy in the dark, as it has two slots on its tail that can house 1.5x6mm tritium vials in your favorite color. Get a giant of a light in a Lilliputian package and see what the fuss is about with all the brass by adding the Fairy to your keychain.

I have hade mine for over a year and I highly recommend it! Brighter than you would expect and really small. You just have to keep an extra charged battery in your bag if you plan to use it often.
