EBay has a really good price on a great flashlight. $8.99 delivered to
your door, in the mail. I got mine today. This is super bright, even with
old batteries from a flashlight that I've used for more than two months.
It's solid construction, beats the hell out of the cheap flashlights I got
from Walgreen's for around $7.00.

The ad says 5 modes with a single button. Do you have to cycle through
all 5 modes just to turn it on and off?

If it is like a similar one that I have, you do not need to cycle through
all 5. It will turn on and off with a quick press of the button on the
back.

Slower presses take it through the cycles.

I have several of the UltraFire lights that use 2 of the cr123 cells. As I
don't use them very often I wanted some batteries that would go for a long
time without use and be ready when I wanted to use it.

I ordered one, so we'll see. I almost went with a cheaper price, but that was for
a "rechargable" unit with no battery. I see that unit accepts either 3 AAA's or a
single 3.7V rechargeable.

If the unit only requires 3.7V, I'm going to cut down one of the AAA's by .8V to
hit the 3.7 mark. I'll save the pieces to use later. Over time it will add up to quite a
substantial savings.

Do you mean that you will use only two (2) AAA batteries?
