The Fenix L2T - a 3watt Lux, 2x AA - 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
Fenix P1 - "pocket rocket"
Civictor V1
Size and supplied pouch
Heads -
similar to the Fenix L1 and P1 - the head of the L2T is marked "L1T/L2T" and is the same as the L1T head threrefore fully interchangeable.
vs. Fenix L1 v2.5 (Non-Premium) both on alkaline -
on High and alkalines the L2T is definitely brighter than the L2 v2.5 - showing it is performing at a typical 3watt level. Surprisingly the tints are similar - a bit too blue for me - I prefer my tints to be warmer, and closer to sunlight. However I could easily change the heads over from the L1T - which had a better tint.
on Low vs. Fenix L1 v2.5 (Non-Premium) both on alkaline -
The L2T on Low (alkalines) is only slightly dimmer than the L1 v2.5 -
considering the claimed runtime of 22 hours on low - this is a really good performance.
Although there's the counter where the low level is not really dim enough to make that much difference in usage......
vs. Fenix L1T both on High and on alkalines -
note: L2T on right and L1T on left (I've taken these beamshots from the Fenix L1T review)
vs. Fenix L1T both on Low and on alkalines -
(again L2T is on right and L1T on left)
in similar ballpark for both High and Low - with perhaps the L2T very slightly brighter in both cases.
(on alkaline) vs. Fenix P1 on primary CR123A
not surprisingly very comparable - since they are both 3watts driven by nominal 3V - the P1 may be marginally brighter.
on Low alkalines and on Lithium on High vs. Fenix P1 on primary CR123A - showing only the -2 Stops Underexposed shots to compare brightness -
on low the L2T is definitely dimmer than the P1 -
but on Lithium AAs and on High it may be just a bit brighter than the control P1 on primary CR123A.
Overall a very good performance.
The Low level on the L2T is not really dim enough to make it practical as a low level -
BUT on low it's still at a level that's close to a respectable 1watt'ish and a claimed long runtime of 22 hours would make this a really good performance.
Again like the L1T - I probably would use the L2T mostly on Low and turning to high occassionally.........
