Seems that the initial fervor has died down on the Fenix P1...
.... pity......
The Fenix P1 - a 3watt Lux, single CR123A - was one in the bunch of flashlights 4sevens (http://fenix-store.com/) very kindly sent me on loan for CPF review.

Fenix L1T (vs. L1 v2.5, L2T, Civictor, P1)
Fenix L1P with Color LEDs
Size -
as can be seen, amazingly small for even a single CR123 flashlight......
Heads -
diameter of the Fenix P1 is the same as the AA Fenix L1 and L2T.
Even though the Fenix P1 is dimunitive and easily pocketable - it still comes with a neat, but rugged looking belt-pouch
vs. Nuwai Q3 both on primary CR123A
hard to judge because of the tint difference - but the Fenix P1 seems just a bit brighter.....
(on primary CR123A) vs. Fenix L1 v2.5 (Non-Premium) on alkaline
the Fenix P1 is noticably brighter
(on primary CR123A) vs. Fenix L2T on alkalines
The L2T might be a bit brighter - but it's close and to me makes no practical difference the beams are so similar.
(on primary CR123A) vs. LightHound 3w V3 on 3.7V RCR123 -
The LightHound is just brighter - but surprisingly close.....
OK what if the Fenix P1 was on 3.7V rechargeable Li-Ion RCR123?
(3.7V RCR123) vs. Nuwai Q3 on primary CR123A
Fenix P1 on RCR123 is brighter
(3.7V RCR123) vs. Nuwai Q3 with RCR123
comparable - but maybe the Fenix P1 on RCR123 is a shade brighter.
(3.7V RCR123) vs. LightHound 3w V3 on 3.7V RCR123
very comparable
Previously, I called the 3watt Nuwai Q3 and LightHound V3 on 3.7V RCR123 - spectacular in brightness. Here's a flashlight LESS than 1/2 the size that has comparable brightness on 3.7V RCR123 (does get warm pretty quickly) - but even on primary CR123A it acquits itself very well indeed.
It is a true "Pocket Rocket" in every sense of the word.......
