The L4 is basically all flood. The E2e has more of a spot. Both have similar runtimes but the L4 is regulated so its' bright the whole hour its rated for vs. the output slowly dropping the whole time with the E2e.
You may want to conside the E2L. I have it and really like it. It has an optic lens which focus's the beam really tight ( but not too tight ) for throw and has a killer 3 HR runtime.
