Battery for LOD Q4

[seanflash]

Are there any other compatible batteries for the Fenix LOD Q4 keychain light that will provide it with longer run times? As long as it won't damage the light, I'd be interested in learning about other options.
Thanks!

I think that the energizer L92 lithium primary, http://data.energizer.com/PDFs/l92.pdf
is to date the longest lasting, highest performing battery (the Lith-Ion 10440 is brighter but not too strong on runtime) available in AAA size.

Fenix L0D CE runtimes

The L0D Q4 uses the same circuit and should give similar runtimes.

I hate showing my ignorance, but would a runtime graph for eneloops be similar to the one shown for the Sanyo HR-4U 900mAh Ni-MH? Thanks.

Eneloops are 800 maH. They will run 58*800/900=51 minutes when freshly charged. A year old Eneloop should still have 81% of that or some 40 minutes. A regular NiMH would be dead in 6 months.
