Is there such a thing as a AAA thrower? (sh.itjust.works)

I’ve got a little stainless Coast A5, which I love, but its beam pattern is very, very much inspection torch. Dead circular, even spread.

Is there anything similar in body, but with a more every-day torch beam? I don’t really want some black knobbly military-cosplayer’s thing, I’m not too bothered about a built in charging port, I want minimal. I love the simple, smooth stainless body of the A5, it lives in my smart jacket pocket along with an elegant little pocket knife, I just wish it had a thrower-style beam.

It's going to be kind of difficult but would penlight style (two AAA's) be ok? It would still be a thin light, if that is what you're after. Or maybe there is something with an optic. Any reflector big enough to give decent throw will also widen the light some.
