I thought they were specific but I just checked the L2D premium page and they don't seem to mention the different run times. In Fact if you look at their little adcopy image thing they specificially show duracell alkaline batteries.
I only knew to use NIMH from reading so much about them before finally caving in and buying a Fenix. They should probably put a obvious note in there where they speficy runtimes about the difference.
