Recently, I am discovering the most overall utility and value in lights with:
• variable output (multi-level or even better, continuous)
• very low low (perhaps 1 to 3 lumens, or so?)
• ability to run on Li-Ions (if possible) as well as primaries
These features define most of the new lights that I consider adding to my existing set of lights.
I don't have any Fenix lights and because they are so very popular around here, keep thinking I really should get one to see what the excitement is all about.
I see Fenix has a few models which go down to 9 lumens (LD10, LD20, PD20, PD30) and am curious if those of you who have these lights find that 9 lumens is as low as you would like it to be for, say, navigating a dark bedroom just enough to see your way around without being so bright as to possibly disturb people sleeping.
I suppose I could just buy one and find out for myself, but before doing so, wanted to find out what other owners thought about this.
I have a few lights that go down to very low levels (not sure of the lumen output, but they are very low - LF3XT, D10, etc.). So, is the Fenix 9 lumen low plenty low enough to your preference?
And... what Fenix would you recommend to me?
