'''LD10''' - 1xAA 6-mode reverse clicky. Output of the Cree XP-G R5 version (December 2010) is 3, 13, 45, 100 [[ANSI-NEMA FL-1|ANSI]] lumens. Previous versions were not rated using the [[ANSI-NEMA FL-1|ANSI]] standard. Output of the Cree XP-G R4 LED is 9, 50, 105, and 132 lumens. The earlier XR-E Q5 LED version has output of 9, 47, 94, and 120 lumens. Lower modes are lost (everything is turbo) when using a lithium-ion battery. Successor to L1D features better tailcap knurling, improved tailcap design with better laynard ring, easier to turn head which is also an anti-roll hexagon shape, lower low, medium, and high, smoother tailcap switch. Longer runtime on low, medium, and high. The early Q5 LD10 had parts interchangeable with the LxD series. Later upgraded with body knurling, trapezoidal threads (not compatible with earlier LD10 or L1D), and a pocket clip (later Q5's were sometimes called the LD10+). R4 version introduced in March 2010.
