Received my Arc LSHF-P today. After reading comments about how you had to look at the fraen lens to be able to distinguish it from the LSH-P, I was pleasantly surprised to find it clearly engraved "LSHF-P 0006" on the head.
This next comment may seem to be stating the bleedin' obvious /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif but you really need your eyes to be dark-adjusted to fully appreciate this little beauty. When I first took it outside, I was a bit disappointed with the lack of peripheral light that was produced. However, after a couple of minutes my eyes adjusted and the output was transformed into a bright focused beam with enough side spill to negotiate my garden path quite comfortably. The beam really is white and is by far the brightest of the Arcs that I've owned (Arc LS2 and ARC LSL-P). It is too bright for really close up work but a plastic cap placed over the lens diffuses the light nicely. No sign of any "farkle" and to my eyes, an absolutely perfectly centered luxeon.
Arrived in 4 days from the US from Meridian Tactical and WELL worth the money.
