Seriously? BUGS?

These are effective at keeping BIRDS out of trees, not BUGS.

They use them in outdoor Austin eateries to keep the grackels and sparrows from dropping a bomb into your dinner plate.

The random refractions as they move in the wind is evidently off putting enough to repels birds. From what I understand the original repellent was aluminum Pie Plates, but they were replaced in favor of something quieter in the wind.

you can also check DealExtreme for listings of other Cree equipped flashlights. I can't say I've personally ordered one of them, but the individual reviews lend a lot of details to the products.
