Why is the LD 41 was.

Had me between a LED Lenser (P 14) and the Fenix ​​LD 41 decide.

Major benefits for me were:

+ Waterproof to IPX8, very robust

+ 4 light modes (and 2 Special modes and momentary)

+ Mode memory, you do not have to come across a brighter lamp circuit into a lower level

+ Without focus, spot / spill together, the fumbling at the focus distracts and is annoying

Regulated +

+ Battery operation possible and allowed

+ Design

Addendum:

+ Does not roll away

small drawbacks:

- Tailstand possible, but not 100% well as main switch protrudes slightly

- Handle the winter cold as metal

- No "lightweight"

- Main switch bit stiff

CONCLUSION: 4.5 stars. The light color is already cool white, but bluish under any circumstances, as I feared. In turbo mode with 520 lm the LD is probably one of the top lamps 41 currently, the AA refer your power from 4 x 1.5V.
