About half an hour ago, the mail came with my Fenix Power Pack 4in1 http://www.fenixlight.com/viewnproduct.asp?id=22. It's a Fenix P2D with an L1D body, a waterproof cap that fits on the body you're not using, a holster, and a diffuser. The package also includes two lanyards, four spare O-rings and two spare tailcap boots.
The P2D is small, very bright, and easier to use than I would have thought. Low mode is very low, ideal for preserving night-vision. Medium is quite bright. High is blinding, and clearly brighter than an 80-lumen tactical light. Turbo mode feels like it could give you a sun burn. The turbo mode strobe is more disorienting than I expected it to be; I'm glad to have it. I can easily see wanting to use it in a tactical situation.
Putting the head on the L1D body is a snap. It's a bit bigger and a lot less bright in Turbo mode, but otherwise just as awesome as the P2D.
The holster looked dorky with the D-ring on it in the pictures, but the D-ring folds over and doesn't really bug me. Otherwise the holster's great. No loose threads, holds the light tight, altogether it looks and feels well-made. I'll use it.
The diffuser looks like nothing so much as a light-up sex toy for the under-endowed. It slips over the head and works as advertised. I'll put it with the L1D body in the bug-out bag I keep in my car, but it's not likely to see a lot of use. It feels super sturdy, though, and I won't worry about it getting banged up or broken in my bag.
The lanyards also seem well-made, and I've attached one to the P2D body for EDC.
