Shape of Fenix lights

I had my L2D CE out tonight admiring it and found myself wishing the rest of the Fenix line had the rounded middle with the knurling instead of the hexagon smooth surface they are now. What do you think?

I wish you worked for Fenix.

I've always preferred the full rounded shape with almost full knurling of the Civictor or JetBeam C-LE. To me, it looks and functions better.

I just noticed that looks just like my Ultrafire C3.

That's a photo of an L2D? I thought they were longer. I just got an L1D-CE in today, still playing with it. On second look and re-reading the post, it is something you are hoping for, right?

I don't mind the hex body of the L1D, I kinda got used to it carrying L1P's for almost two years. One thing I don't like is the new slippery HAIII finish. The old L1Ps had a matte finish, better looking and not as slippery. I just hope it serves me as well as my old L1Ps, my favorite EDC lights for poking around computer innards, above suspended ceilings, inside walls, etc.

I'm sure the new SOS function will come in real handy. What a joke.

I am also one who fully agrees with you. I like much better a knurled and round shape.

I just stopped using P2D as my EDC and got a Jetbeam CL-E because of its shape. And for the same reason I ordered a new Hyperion.

he photoshopped it, i think he's saying that's what he wished a single cell fenix looked like

And since we are playing the "Junior Fenix Designer" game, here's my idea:

You are right kegler. That is a photoshopped picture of my L2D. I just shortened it to the size of an L1D. I wish the L1D, P2D, and P3D all had this round knurled design.
