Right now I am going to start with 1 fenix. I will then likely supplement with a p7 depending on how the fenix goes.

The reasons for going with the Fenix are:
-Durability/build quality- It will always be useful as a secondary reliable light. Hopefully will hold up to riding in the rain....
AA power source- 2 reasons for this preference. First, I already have 45 AA rechargeable batteries and a charger so no extra stuff to buy. AA are readily available. In a pinch you can find some AAs even in remote areas. Good luck finding a 18650.
-Redundancy- I will likely end up with 2 lights. Having 2 of different makes and styles reduces my chance of having both fail at the same time.

Trigger is not pulled yet but it probably will be soon. And if anyone knows of any key distinctions between the LD20, LD2T, L2D Q5 so on so forth please feel free to share
