Yeah, was looking for 36h as I'm not lightweight, otherwise would just have got the cheap 3n72 from Spa (though I guess for non-touring use 32h might be ok?).
Which lights are you using on the 2.4w? I know people (used to) warn about dimmer lights, but then why are the latest hubs being released in 1.5w versions?
(Forgot there was a specific hub chat thread, sorry...)

I noticed the 3n72 and 3n80 seem to be vanishing recently. The upside is that where shops have the better ones in stock they seem to be discounted to make way for disc versions. Spa, Rose and Starbike all have one or the other I think. I bought the LX version from SJS recently for peanuts. I can’t see any obvious difference between that and my 3dn80, except finish is matte silver and internals must be different as it’s only rated 2.4w not 3w. Built it and ridden it, lights work fine, all good.
I’m guessing if you’ve already searched that you may be after 36h as I can only find 32h easily.
The XT one may well be near identical to the 3dn80, again I seem to only find 32h easily.
