Looks like it has been released as the LX20+. Price reduced to $499 and lumens increased to 1500lm with a runtime drop to 2.25hr. They seem to be using the same led but driving it at higher current.I think there is actually an upgraded LX20 coming out soon. I know they have upgraded the chip/driver at least once in that light already. I have a couple hundred dives on mine without any issues,
