Nah. I’m too afraid I’d hit something I didn’t intend to hit. 😃

actually, i just swapped batteries for the first time today, took the fresh batteries out of the Inova X5, and put them in the SF, put the used SF batteries in the X5, i bought the SF about 3 months ago, and have been using it intermittently on the P60, for my daily use, my Fenix L1 or Inova X5 handle most of my lighting needs

when i need a _really_ powerful light (my 6P with P61 is _brighter_ than my 6 D-Cell Mag), the 6P is ready to go, that’s why the batteries have lasted as long as they have, besides, i have a G2 in the car with a G&P 3 watt Luxeon lamp assembly if i need bright/long runtime, the 3W G&P is brighter than the Fenix, yet not as bright as a P60, however, a P60 has 1 hour runtime, the G&P 3W has 4-5 hours of runtime
