Superior light, runtime, and size. Perfect for Every Day Carry, emergencies, packs, vehicles and gifts.Jan 05, 2006
By T. Hassler I own the original Infinity Ultra, but it hasn't changed too much since Gerber bought out CMG. The Infinity Ultra has the double bright LED (for the same power consumption), aircraft grade aluminum, waterproofed to 10', and runs for 100 hours on a single AA battery. Gerber has changed it to have a screw on butt style, which I actually don't like as much. The original solid tube style seems much sleeker, but you can still find them without this change by Gerber if this bothers you like it does me.
I run mine on a Lithium battery, which provides an exceptional run-time, storage life and better cold weather capability. I don't use it constantly, so I'm actually still on my first Li Battery which is now over 2 years old - but it has been on for hours at a time while working repairs for my machines or around the house. They aren't kidding about the 100 hours and that's with a standard AA!
The light is very bright, the machined case is well built, yet simple in design. My model has a lanyard hole in the back end and it came with a neck size lanyard - the newer Gerber model comes with a clip that friction mounts to the outside. I prefer the former, but would appreciate the hands-free capabilities of the latter as an option. It's useful as a signal light up to a mile, and has about a 30' throw. It weighs about 2oz. and is about 3.5" long. It has a "circuit boost" technology to make the LED run for a longer time on batteries with a steady output.
I carry this light all the time, but one thing it could use is a nylon belt pouch. It's not too bad in the pocket, but I like to keep it thin if possible. At any rate, I've NEVER had any problems with this light and as a flashlight geek, it stands ahead of most every other light I own. I fully recommend it and hope Gerber continues with the high quality (it appears they are doing just that!)

Simply the bestJan 30, 2007
By anonymous Don't get me wrong. I went through two other Gerber flashlights, which both failed very quickly. But that was an earlier version. When they sent the Infinity Ultra to satisfy my warranty claim, I was stunned. It's absolutely terrific. Other reviewers miss one very important fact. This flashlight uses only a single AA battery. Not crappy AAAs, not an expensive lithium. One cheap, small, common AA battery. It takes some smart electronics to pull this off, since AAs only generate 1.5 volts. Normally not enough, to power any LED, but Gerber makes it work. On top of that, the electronics are smart enough to squeeze light out of dead batteries. When my digital cameras have sucked all the life out of a set of AAs, I put them aside for my Gerber Infinity Ultra. What my camera calls a dead battery will power my Gerber flashlight for weeks with daily use. For me, that's an unlimited supply of free batteries. Another reviewer missed one point. If you want it on constantly, you just twist all the way. If you want it on for a second, just push in on the back end. The way it's built, it works like a momentary switch. On for just a second or two, and then off when you let go. This is a practically unbreakable flashlight. You could leave it out in the street for days and it would work weeks later. The dull green coating is durable. I've assumed it was some kind of hardened anodizing. It's excellent. Compare this to another flashlight with special expensive batteries, and maybe you can do better. But out of all the flashlights that take just one AA battery, this is easily the cream of the crop.

decent productAug 23, 2007
By Michael Fullerton
"mike"
Not too powerful but powerful enough to be a good task light. I have smaller and brighter task lights but the construction of this unit (very solid) makes me favor this one over others that I have. This is not intended to be a general purpose flashlight, it works best for working in small confined areas.

Solid, but not too brightMar 19, 2009
By smgsmc This is a solid chunk of metal. I wanted a small unit that runs on a AA battery instead of a set of button batteries. It has a pocket clip which is actually usable. The clips on some lights are too loose, no grip. The clip on the Streamlite Keymate is so tight that you have to force it open. The light turns on by screwing down the end cap (not the head like other small flashlights). This is yet another light that has the direction wrong. It's on when screwed down tight. It's off when loosened. If you don't loosen it enough, it will turn on accidentally if pressed. Fortunately, the thread has a long travel, so you can safely loosen it a lot. It takes 10 and a half turns for the cap to screw off, so you don't need to worry about it accidentally falling off. You can signal by first screwing the cap all the way down and then loosening it until the light just goes out. The contacts are spring-loaded, so you can signal by repeatedly pushing and releasing the end cap (simulates a tail cap switch). The beam is diffuse and even, with a cold bluish hue.
The big neg? My small Streamlight Nano and Keymate, which both run on button batteries, are brighter. Unlike other reviews here, I find the light too dim.
Note added: I've now purchased other small LED flashlights. One of the reasons this unit is not as bright is because there is no reflector bowl or lens. The LED is exposed and recessed into a bowl which is painted all black. If you get dirt on the LED, it's hard to wipe off (and you may scratch it up). Because there is no reflector, lens, or on/off switch, it is more compact than other 1-AA flashlights.

Best keychain flashlightMay 31, 2008
By jd It's bright and has a tightly focused beam (great for making shadow pictures
if you have children). It takes one AA battery (which you can easily find, not
some obscure $25 hearing aid battery). If you take off the clip it fits in your
pocket with your keys. Only downside is that the black coating does seem to
rub off. I don't know where it went -- I suppose the washing machine -- but
after a few years of carrying it around you'll end up with a dull metallic-finish
flashlight instead of a black one. Doesn't affect the function (I actually think
it looks better). Great light.
