“Check out the Felix L2D. Excellent flashlight with a bright, clean light and a great lantern tip.”

Amen. Even the Fenix L1D is more than adequate for backpacking. It stands a little easier on its end since it’s shorter. The lantern tip is a neat invention. I got one for Christmas. The battery life on the L1D is better than actual battery lanterns (for runtime vs lumens vs weight).

Another trick is stick the L1D in a cheap white styrofoam cup. That makes enough lantern light for 8 scouts to play cards by w/o getting blinded.
