IMHO the L1(new) is practically useless WITHOUT the F04. It adds a softened, short-range, flood/spill dimension that is required for utility purposes. The L1(new)/F04 is currently my favorite EDC and serves as my primary backup if other tasks require a higher-power light. With 168-176 hours of runtime in "low" and good area flood (F04) or 100 yard-throw in "high", it is difficult to beat the utility/size/cost/runtime factor.
