 Changing my reviewFeb 24, 2010
"I ordered the light because I currently have a 100 lumens light and wanted something brighter. Well I do like the features of the Fenix, I just don't see 220 lumens, my 100 lumens is just as bright. I am using it correctly and understand twisting the bezel puts it in turbo mode. Maybe it's just a dud, but doesn't meet my expectations. Feedback would be cool, I'm hoping this is just defective." <~~ original review.
After running a new set of batteries through a cycle I am impressed. I love the versatility of the light going from the light of a match to the light of a police helicopter trying to find you just by twisting the head of the light. I would get it now when it is still cheap.

 Not Bad for the PriceJan 23, 2010
I purchased the flashlight based on lumens and price, sure you can get slightly higher lumen lights but unless you are an active LEO, really how often are you going to need a high power light? As a retired LEO I have gone through my share of lights, I still have my orginal D cell Maglite, but for lumenation vs. price this is a good product. If does have different stages of lumenation from low to high that can be obtained by a quick tap of the rear On/Off switch. It does have a strobe, but it is weak and does not last long nor does it strobe fast enough to be a good defensive tool. The front bevel can be turned to change the device to a steady High beam when turn on as appose to the low to high system. It is light weight, small and easy to carry. I ordered the light with the batteries. If you need a stronger light or one with a faster strobe then I would recommend you seek something else, but overall it is a good light for the price.

I purchased this flashlight for my husband as a gift and he raved about how bright it shines. He wants to purchase 2 more to give as gifts to other family members.
Permanently attached to my husband's waistJan 07, 2010
I bought this for my hubby for Christmas (in lieu of an overpriced SureFire). He loves this flashlight and is very proud of it. He's carried it on his hip every single day since the day I gave it to him. We can light up the treetops from the ground, and we're able to spotlight our neighbor's deck from our deck (which really freaked our neighbor out the first time we did it. Of course it didn't help that my husband yelled "FREEZE!" at him).
We went over the other reviews, and his opinion is that the "half button push" to change the mode isn't a problem and that you'd have to be an idiot not to be able to figure it out (his words, not mine). The only complaint that I might have is that I had to go to Batteries Plus to get batteries for it (WalMart, KMart, & several other places don't carry 123A), and they're not cheap. But this is a non-issue as far as we're concerned.

Love it and is a great gift.Dec 21, 2009
This is the 2nd PD30 I bought. This one is for my dad. This easily blows away any maglite I have ever had (3D and 4D) yet is small enough to keep in my back pocket next to my wallet. For those of you afraid that CR123a batteries are expensive, you can buy tenergy's for about a dollar/piece online. all of the low modes are enough for everything in and around the house---the high mode is super-bright but really only used when showing off or spotting things in the distance. this thing can shine all the way down my street. I bought my first one because it can get into tight spots unlike the huge maglite. I highly recommend this to anyone who fixes stuff around the house, camps, repairs their car. also the cr123 batteries have a much longer shelf life, so the light won't be dead if you leave it in a drawer for a long time.
