Should I get a Fenix LD10 R4..?
on: October 09, 2010, 09:30:22 PM
I'm about to order a Fenix LD10 R4 from Heinnies for £44. I just sold my Maglite XL-100 and I like the
Tac-look and reviews about the Fenix.. Anything else I should consider before pulling the trigger..?  :)

I got a Gerber Infinity Ultra so pairing it with a thrower LD10 could be good.  :)

I will, thanks mate..  :tu:
Now I just have to figure out if I really need the Über-expensive Böker Haddock folder at the same time..  :P

The LD10 is a nice solid light which won't take up too much room in your pocket - hope you enjoy it  :tu:

A nice comparative light would be the Nitecore D10 for my money or a Quark AA.

Hopefully the LD10 arrives tomorrow, but I decided not to order the Haddock since it's not legal EDC and
I already have the Cox..  :) Thanks for the input all..  :tu:
