RovyVon

RovyVon is a Chinese company specialising in small lights that ride on a keyring or in a chest pocket, and it made its name with the Aurora series, lights the size of a thumb. Technically what marks them out is a battery built into the body that charges straight through a USB port, so there is no cell to swap and no separate charger, and that most models carry two light sources: a front emitter that throws to a distance and a wide side panel for close work, with red or violet light on some models. It uses light polycarbonate bodies on some models and metal alloys on others, with a ring or clip on almost every piece.

This suits anyone who wants light on him at all times, not light he carries in his hand: the falconer checking his bird and its leash before dawn, the hunter who wants a spare in his pocket beside his big light, and the camper moving among his things at night who wants close light that does not blind him.

Al Huwaila is an authorised RovyVon agent, with seven pieces; most are lights in the flashlights section, such as the Aurora A8 Pro, Aurora A8, Aurora A25 and Aurora A4X in keyring size, and the S200, plus a small keyring knife.
