Overnight backcountry backpacking/hiking in the spirit of taking less and doing more. Ask yourself: do I really need that?

18.5mm diameter, 7.7mm thick + 3.7mm for the flange on the back (see photo on mfgr page https://niteize.com/ziplittm-led-zipper-pull ). Output is about 1 lm, wide flood, similar to using a phone screen to light your way. Definitely a functional light not just a location marker. Smallest light that I actually know where to buy. Drops ok edgewise into NDUR match safe and of course you can use the space around it. Weight incl battery and non removable pull cord, around 2.5g or 3g. More later.

I have updated the original !flashlight post https://old.lemmy.world/post/2163520 to include some more info and measurements as promised, but I don't know how to propagate the new text to the cross-post. Anyway, it is there if you want to see it.
