Ironically, Nitecore Tube.
Not a fan of Nitecore in general. Had a couple of bad experiences. Unreliable lights. Even had the TIP at first that failed miserably on me. But I liked the attachment point on the Tube and its flat design. Including its simplier U.I. compared to the TIP. Bought one, and several months later it has quietly taken up permanent residency on my main keyring.
Often, I would try out a number of various keychain lights. All would not last long, and then my Photon Freedom would quietly find its way back on there until I tried out another potential candidate to replace it. Usually, the new light would last a couple of weeks maybe longer. But soon enough, it was back to the Photon Freedom. I think the reason why the Tube is not going anywhere is because unlike the TIP, Nitecore got the Tube right. Reliable, no stupid B.S. like having an exposed charging port or buttons elevated to the point that after awhile they want to pop out. Plus, the Tube has all the features I like in the Freedom. Flat, very lightweight, drop-dead reliable.
45 lumens on High might not seem like a lot, and it's not. But it's definitely enough for what you'd reasonably expect to put a keychain light through. If I need more, that's what my primary or secondary lights are for.
