Tenergy 10000 vs Tenergy LSD 8000

[Berneck1]

Hi, I'm a brand new member to this site, although I have read through the posts extensively for a while. I was seeking opinions on the Tenergy 10000 vs Tenergy LSD 8000 batteries. Obviously, the 10000 has more capacity, but I like the benefit of low self discharge. Is there THAT much of a difference of the drop off in capacity over time between the two?

I bought a TK60 for emergencies, so it will be in a drawer most of the time. (I use my M20 and PD20 for regular use.) That being said, I purchased the Tenergy 10000's only to later see the LSD 8000's. Since this light isn't going to be in regular use, should I have purchased the LSD's? i have no problem recharging them every once in a while, but the last thing I want is a surprise during an emergency.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
