this is one of the most entertaining threads yet :lolsign:
The people getting all upset about a small dark ring have me in fits, especially when coupled with expressions like "now I can't sleep" and "that's it I'm cancelling my order".
A year ago, if there had been a fully regulated, multi-level, 135 lumen light in a single CR123 sized package, with those run-times for $270... no $370+, people would have been buying. Now it seems that because of a tiny, less bright ring, $70 incl delivery is too much :huh:
Hellooooo? are all the wires still connected??? Some people need a reality check. Personally, I think that $70 (actually about £36 here in the UK :rock: ) is an absolute steal and I applaud Fenix for bringing such an awesome EDC light to us at such a bargain price.
Now when I paid about 4 times that amount for a Surefire L6 which is 10x the size/weight, not as bright, not multi-level and has a donut hole in the middle of the beam, right where you want it to be bright, I feel that disappointment is reasonable, but P1D CE is rockin' Can't wait for mine.
I hope that they now make a L2T with a Cree in. A simple 2 levels is good enough for me and as the P1D is almost as long as the L2T with the CR123 body anyway, the clicky tail cap would seal the deal as my perfect EDC. Keep up the good work Fenix...
