Surefire L2 and L4 vs 9P?

Pipper · September 2, 2006, 05:04 PM

I have a 9P, 6P, and a 9Z, but I'm interested in the smaller form factor of the L2 and L4 Lumamax series. When I compare the 100 lumen L2 vs the 9P, the 9P seems significantly brighter although they have similar lumen ratings. Does anyone know if this is the case, or am I imagining things? The LED vs. the bulb of the 9P might be the difference.

Also, although the L4 package states that it's rated at 65 lumens, Surefire assures me that it's actually 100 lumens. Does anyone know if this is true?
