I really like the form factor, so I might try one of these - especially since it will actually fold all the way over.
Too soon to speak about battery life runtime comparison.
My brother and I really liked the harbor freight light at first. Unfortunately both of ours ended up cracking in the same spot at the swivel hinge. Its too bad they used plastic instead of metal there. Mine still works with electrical tape wrapped around it. Its a nice light, but not very durable.

That one is a somewhat compact and similar to the Gearwrench and has one 3.6V battery.

This one, and there are many sellers of this style, has space in the handle for a second 3.6V if you want to really add capacity. It's not really easy to be pocketable unless it's a jacket or a holster, but it's very bright and has a lot of features.
Both much better deals in my opinion.
On another front, if you want something really compact, this is the other light I use.

If price is your main consideration, then you should go with the no-name China brand (urlhasbeenblocked). I looked only at the batteries, and the two you posted come with 2000 mAH batteries while the Gearwrench comes with a 3350 mAH battery. No doubt there a differences in the circuit boards and LED bulbs as well.
Comparing a name-brand light to a no-name China brand is like expecting the eBay LED headlights you bought for your car to shine the same as your neighbor's LED headlights on their new Mercedes. They might both be LEDs, but there are major differences in quality and implementation.
I don't own this light, but I do own a Gearwrench penlight (83122) and it is a fantastic light. Much better than similar penlights I have used from Harborfreight.
