"Temperamental" is a very good description of the 47 twisties. They had to be carefully maintained or they were a royal pain in the rear. I had a stainless steel Preon Revo that I carried as a backup for many years, and I thought it was a wonderful little light. The only reason I don't own it anymore is because it was lost when my suitcase ripped open on a flight. The Revo had been long discontinued by that point, so I bought a AAA LED Maglite as a replacement.Really? I never liked the 4sevens twisties, as I always found them very temper-mental. Small, though, so I guess that was their appeal.
Personally, I liked their old Quarks. I always figured those would be their best sellers.
