The Fenix L1P is a "tactical" light, which can probably be best compared to the SureFire E1L tac light. The Fenix has seen a lot of attention from flashlight aficionados, who appreciate the high quality from a AA power source, instead of the much more expensive and harder to find 123s.
L1P:
about 45 lumens
>reverse clicky pushbutton switch
>LED
>1 AA battery
>about 2 hrs FULL brightness, plus about another 2 hrs reduced output
>1.45 oz
>3.61x.79"
>belt pouch and lanyard
E1L:
about 25 lumens
>"Tactical" pushbutton switch
>LED
>1 123 battery
>about 1 hour FULL brightness, plus about 3 hrs reduced outpout
>2.6 oz
>3.3" length
>clip
$80-100
A small, very bright and tough light is probably one of the most important tools defensive-minded people can have. Unlike something like a firearm, besides being useful in a life and death situation, a light will see weekly, and sometimes daily use.
SureFire makes great lights, but the L1P is brighter, lasts longer, and TAKES AA BATTERIES. It is longer but slimmer, and weighs less. They are currently on sale for $36.95, shipped, from Fenix Store.com.
