'''L2''' - The original light is a 1x18650 host. Available in matte black or shiny titanium gray. The 2011 edition has a 3 amp switch. The tail switch is exposed so this light does not tailstand. Prior to 2011, black was glossy, gunmetal gray had a greenish tint, and a matte sand color was available. Prior to 2009, the body tube was not wide enough for 188650 batteries.

'''L2D'' - Side clicky 1x18650 host. Has a different look than other L2 series lights, but threads are compatible. One version adds a tail clicky, but since it takes standard P60 modules, the switches are both on/off instead of one being for modes and the other for power. Introduced in January 2014.
'''L2n''' - Another P60 host, this one has a fluted tail piece and finger divots on the body. The head looks the same as the L2. Available in black or gray. Introduced in October 2012.


'''L2P''' - Similar to the L2 but with a forward clicky, better [[Materials#Anodizing|anodizing]] (Type III HA instead of Type II), a less aggressive bezel, milder knurling, and the ability to tailstand. Available in black or gray with 2011 limited editions in gold or blue.  Prior versions were also available in black or gray only and came with a reverse clicky switch designed for more like 2 amp instead of 3. They also had a slightly longer body tube that could result in connection problems with the battery (particularly shorter unprotected batteries or with dropins that have short springs).
