Fenix LD01 Flashlight
My thoughts on the Fenix LD01, one of my favorite flashlights for EDC.

The LD01 offers three output types: 85 lumens (which lasts for one hour on a single AAA battery), 28 lumens (3.5 hours), and 9 lumens (11 hours). As a result, you can find a setting for virtually any activity, from shining a light in a dark cave to getting a closer look at a car engine. Just as importantly, the LD01 measures only 0.55 inches in diameter and 2.95 inches long, helping it fit easily in a jacket pocket or messenger bag (the light also includes a stainless-steel pocket clip for wearing in a shirt pocket). And thanks to the light's long-lasting Cree XP-E LED bulb, the LD01 shines a beam steadily for roughly 50,000 hours before burning out.
The flashlight is also well built, with a durable aircraft-grade aluminum body coated with a premium Type III hard-anodized, anti-abrasive finish. The construction--which also includes a toughened ultra-clear glass lens with an anti-reflective coating--helps the light hold up to all kinds of abuse. Other features include a reliable twist switch for easy one-handed operation, a waterproof housing to the IPX-8 standard, and a spare O-ring. The LD01, which also stands on a flat surface to serve as a candle, weighs 0.5 ounces (excluding batteries). The flashlight carries a limited lifetime warranty.
