    Default Run-Time Plot - Fenix L1P v2.5

    These runtime plots are for a Fenix L1P v2.5 1w LED flashlight.

    Equipment used is a Extech Mdl 401021 Light Adapter into a Radio Shack 22-805 multimeter with a PC interface that is using Scopeview software (V 1.08).

    The vertical axis is in mVDC and is equivalent to one footcandle @ 1Ft oer division. The horizontal axis is in minutes, 30 min per division for the Lithium plot and 15 min per division for the Alkaline plot.

    Be aware that your actual battery milage may vary from that indicated by this runtime plot.

    The runtime to 50% max brightness = 3 hours 10 minutes for this plot using a Battery Station 2900 mAh Li-Fes2 AA battery.



    The runtime to 50% max brightness = 1 hour 51 minutes for this plot using a Ultra Alkaline alkaline AA battery.

    Roy, is this the Fenix L1P 2.0 or 2.5?
    Because IIRC the v2.0 should be about 4h regulated on a Lithium AA ...
    Thanx for the work!

    There is a type of perfection that transcends the quest for lumens. Buying a $250 1-cell light for "lum factor" is like buying a $250 single malt Scotch for the alcohol content.

    Thanks for the info! Very useful to have batterystation Li AA runtime and Alkaline info for the V2.5. Now I know what to expect.

    Thanks Roy, I just received 20 Battery Station AA Lithiums that I ordered for use in my Fenix lights -- based on your plots, seems I made a good call.

    I am completely amazed at the brightness, and runtime of this little beauty.

    I never expected to see it with a lonely AA cell.
