Since I have reviewed the Fenix light thread I was considering a L2D CE or L2D Premium 100 (new since you purchased yours?) or L2T V2.0 (brand new). Which would you recommend?
I would recommend the L2D Premium 100. I just got it a couple of days ago, and haven't tried it yet on the road, but with 2 hrs of battery life in turbo mode, and 175 lumens, it compares well in terms of light output to a pt Switchback 3(I compared the two side by side). The SB has more spill and a softer spot than the L2D, but the L2D is definitely a good enough light to get home on. One thing is that the L2d is definitely more of a spot light.
