My old one, just like this one, did not have a "push-push" switch, nor dual-brightness. What an improvement, I love them! Button is a little hard to press to the "stay-on" point though (1/2 pt. off for this). Another half-point off because there is no way to set it down pointing upward, and on it's side it tends to roll.But if you are just looking for a flashlight strictly for 'in your hand,' then look no further.Use low light for long battery life, even high is good life too.
