    Fenix Eo1, TK20 and MC10. The EO1 sits mostly unused and the TK20 needs a reason to be carried but the MC10 goes everywhere with me. I run and Hash (Hash House Harriers) and with a Zebralight H501 on a headband and the MC10 in my hand this is just about perfect for night runs. However for the coming winter I may look at the HP10. Fenix do make excellent lights and the Tk20 makes similar powered Mag-lights look both dull and somewhat ordinary. The MC10 is at first feel a bit plasticy but after regular use I have come to rely on it and the ability to reduce power output and stand it /hang it / wear it makes for a very versatile EDC torch. The also always carry a Zebralight which is just so uniquely perfect for any near field illumination. All my torches have Eneloop batteries in them so the usual trickle drain of rechargeables is not a problem.

    I have the TK10, very compact and powerful. Lights up the whole woods at night. Doubled with a red filter it is perfect for wildlife watching. Compared to others in the same class, the battery life is really long too.

    I have the LD20 and it's the best tourch I've ever used. Batteries last an age, powerful, waterproof and seems pretty much bombproof. Plus as it takes 2 AA battirs it's easy to just keep some spare in you kit.

    I'd also highly reccomend the Diffuser Lanterns they do, about £3 each and are great. I have both the white and red versions. Perfect for lighting a tent.

    I'll have to check those out. At the moment I'm using those cheap LED wall lights from JLM or whatever it is to light my tent.

    I picked up an L2D in the classifieds, it doesn't get much use apart from the "my light is brighter than yours" moments at camp sometimes. I tend to stick to my headlamp and leave my hands free for other stuff like eating, drinking and rolling cigs.

    I forgot I have the LD20 too. I always carry this, runs on two AAs and lasts ages. Perfect carry piece when you are out and about. Things have come a long way since the AA mini Maglite days.

    they may still have the other bodies for it L1d is a single AA and as said the Wand makes a good area light

    I use an L2D at work.
    It gives me a nice clear strong light for doing inspections.
    If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it.

    Got an E01 that has been retired from the keyring by a Nitecore EZAA. An L2D with white diffusor for home use and a new TK12 R5 with white diffusor for camp use. Like the runtime on low/medium with 18650. No plans for any new lights soon, but I got troubles with low impulse control regarding brights, so you never know...

    I have a P3D which I really like. The (optional) diffuser works very well with it.

    Be great if it put out 375 Lumens...

    Its my primary EDC light, in addition to Petzl e+Lites, Photon Freedom CN's, and a modified Maglite AA.

    I have a LD20 it's certainly very bright, it usually sits in my bag though as my head torch is more practical and leaves my hands free.

    Well, I actually bought the new Fenix tk45. It's a lot of money but what a lot of torch. Pity the wife sussed straight away- isn't that too big? Does this mean you need to by a smaller one too?

    Rumbled!!

    I have the LD 20. Nice torch, small enough to be carried anytime I need it and powered by the same AA batteries that fit in my gps, my pocket camera...
    I plan to upgrade to a bigger one even if i don't really need it .. it's my gadget addiction that sometimes comes back to life...

    Fenix P1 D. I carry it into the wilderness together with a Petzl headlamp. I´m trying to carry as light as possible, and the P1 D gives so much light for it´s size.
