    Introduction:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Way back in 2015, Fenix introduced a new AA-compatible pocket flashlight. It was pretty bright, rugged, and versatile with an e-switch and a rear clicky. Output was 215 Lumens from the Cree XP-G2 LED with high-quality NiMH batteries. Not bad for a small light. Well, it\u2019s 2022, and folks, Lumens sell. As a very forward-thinking company, Fenix knows this, and like many of their lights, now there\u2019s an updated LD22, the V2. The V2 gets a significant performance boost, a new LED, li-ion battery, while retaining the AA compatibility<\/strong>. It\u2019s a Fenix, so it\u2019s a solid light with a great warranty (just like every other Fenix I\u2019ve reviewed), and it\u2019s up against some nice competitors like the Rovyvon H3 Pro, Thrunite Archer 2A V3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Package quality.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    The LD22 V2 comes in a package designed for retail sales, with a hang tag and bright, flamboyant graphics, and the usual pleasantries like a lot of feature blurbs and specs. It\u2019s all very nice and tidy for a light like this. Inside, you get a full complement of accessories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
