Description
The Zebralight SC51 is a AA light that is capable of an incredible 200 lumens on high using regular alkaline or NiMh batteries. For situations when 200 lumens is too much light, the light also has five other brightnesses for a total of six, grouped in three different modes. All three modes are accessible from off, a great feature that keeps you from having to cycle through multiple modes to get to the one you want.
