Here's the beam shot line up.
The Marwi P7 is a halogen conversion - More info here on this light
The DX1 P7 is flashlight conversion with the 1.4 amp/2.8 amp/Clicky switch mod - More info here on this light
The Hoffman P7 is a one-off home brew of mine that was too expensive to have made in a machine shop

The DX2 P7 is Deal extreme SKU 25149 P7 bike light. - More info here on this light
I had not taken actual current measurements on this light yet, so I didn't know the actual current settings for High and Low

The 1.4 amp/2.8 amp/Clicky switch mod is explained on this page

This is my favorite beam shape, the Marwi conversion
It lights up the trail just in front of your tire and
then throws out a nice fat bright spot down the trail 25+ feet or so.
This gives a nice full range of light when on the trail.
Just for fun I clicked on all four P7's lights as a last shot.
The leaves started smoking so I shut er down. :)
