'''Preon 1''' - 1xAAA 7-mode twisty with Cree XP-G R5 LED. Has a pocket clip and matte finish (no knurling) and is available in black, blue, red, yellow, and titanium. Regular operation cycles through 1.8, 8.5, and 70 lumens, but if you cycle quickly through all the modes twice, you also get strobe, SOS, and high and low beacon modes. Parts are interchangeable with Preon 2, which allows use of a clicky tail. Introduced in November 2009. In November 2010, a version with XP-G S2 was introduced with maximum output of 60 [[ANSI-NEMA FL-1|ANSI]] lumens and 40m throw.
'''Preon 1''' - 1xAAA 7-mode twisty with Cree XP-G S2 LED introduced in November 2010. Has a pocket clip and matte finish (no knurling) and is available in black, blue, red, yellow, and titanium. Regular operation cycles through 2, 13, and 70 [[ANSI-NEMA FL-1|ANSI]] lumens (40m throw), but if you cycle quickly through all the modes twice, you also get strobe, SOS, and high and low beacon modes. Parts are interchangeable with Preon 2, which allows use of a clicky tail. Original version introduced in November 2009 with 1.8, 8.5, and 70 OTF lumens.


'''Preon 2''' - 2xAAA 7-mode clicky with XP-G R5 LED. Has a pocket clip and matte finish (no knurling) and is available in black, blue, red, yellow, titanium and titanium black (with titanium head and tail but black body). Regular operation cycles through 2.2, 22, and 160 lumens, but if you cycle quickly through all the modes twice, you also get strobe, SOS, and high and low beacon modes. Parts are interchangeable with Preon 1, which allows use of a flat tail and using the light as a twisty. Introduced in November 2009. In May 2010, a limited edition with warm white XP-G Q5 LED was introduced. In June 2010, a limited edition with neutral white XP-G R4 was introduced. In November 2010, a version with XP-G S2 was introduced with maximum output of 120 ANSI lumens and 59m throw.
'''Preon 2''' - 2xAAA 7-mode clicky with XP-G S2 LED introduced in November 2010. Has a pocket clip and matte finish (no knurling) and is available in black, blue, red, yellow, titanium and titanium black (with titanium head and tail but black body). Regular operation cycles through 3, 26, and 120 ANSI lumens (59m throw), but if you cycle quickly through all the modes twice, you also get strobe, SOS, and high and low beacon modes. Parts are interchangeable with Preon 1, which allows use of a flat tail and using the light as a twisty. Original version, introduced in November 2009, used a XP-G R5 and had modes of 2.2, 22, and 160 OTF lumens. In May 2010, a limited edition with warm white XP-G Q5 LED was introduced. In June 2010, a limited edition with neutral white XP-G R4 was introduced.


'''Preon ReVO''' - 1xAAA 7-mode twisty with XP-E R2 LED. Regular operation cycles through 1.8, 20, and 82 lumens, but if you cycle quickly through all the modes twice, you also get strobe, SOS, and high and low beacon modes. Power is current regulated instead of PWM of the other Preons which should be more efficient. Available in black or stainless steel and has more traditional knurling instead of a smooth finish. Not to be used with a lithium-ion battery whereas the Preon 1 can be, but is not recommended. Introduced in August 2010.
