Nice find. At $24.00 for stainless it's very compairable to Fisher Bullet Space pens and in a more compact configuration.

Now that  is a thing of beauty. With the change left over from  not buying the Ti version, I could buy titanium camp utensils for the entire family! Hm. Go figure on that one. Good link--thanks.       |

I bought myself the Fenix L1P from LightHound for my 45th birthday (Feb. 25). I'm looking forward to playing with it.  <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I've had my Fisher Bullet EDC in my pocket for years.  For the cost for either of the pens mentioned, I just don't see the value.  The Fisher pen can write on about anything and mine has gone through the wash, been stepped on, had tools dropped on it, run over, and I once dropped it briefly in a fire before I had a chance to knock it out with a branch.  My pen is a tank.
 If you want a keyring, the Bullet could be drilled for that.  The cartridge itself is waterproof, so you would just need to be concerned with the interior and I don't think there's any harm as long as you dry it out if it gets wet via the newly drilled split-ring  hole.
 
 Other than fine scratching from constant contact with other metal items in my pocket, It's still in like-new condition after half a decade of abuse.  You can have it when they pry my cold dead hands from it.  <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Craig,
 You'll love the Fenix.  Very bright, and a common battery type.  I carry mine "upside down" in its holster, which allows me to use it without removing it (another tip from CPF).

I hope so. I read nothing but positive reviews of the Fenix L1P.
 Then, in no particular order, I'd like to get the Fenix L2P, Peak LED "Caribbean," Inova XO, and Arc AAA Premium.

Write any-where pen ??? 
 hmmmm
 
 From my kids' desks, I get half-pencils, used crayons and few other nice thingies. If you include a short pencil and a shorter crayon in your EDC, youd be pretty covered for most writing emergencies.

Yeah, but the crayon cuts your COOL factor to zero.
