Before you come in and start belly-aching about there being a lot of threads on the UA2, stop for a second. This thread is about which one you'll get, or both, or if you could get one, which would you get?
Well, both lights have their obvious perks. The Optimus is the only light I know of which uses what appears to be actual focusing, and 200 lumens is great by 2XCR123 standards. On the other hand, the Invictus is also pretty adaptable but has that amazing 400+ threshold reached, and the P7 is being underdriven so you can expect good run-time.
If I could only pick one, it's hard to say without them being out yet, but the Optimus would have to be my choice. 200 Lumens is more than enough for every day use. The Invictus would be more for those times when unparalleled edc-able output is needed, for example, signaling, illuminating broad areas at long distances, etc.
I'm getting both, personally!
