If the light will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery, or the light could be damaged by electrolyte leakage or battery explosion. This little (3535 size) Luxeon LED has been around for a few years, had some testing done at BLF, and never really seemed to generate much interest in the enthusiast space. It says “with the light unlocked, press and hold the electronic switch for over 10 seconds”, but doing that just blinds yourself with Strobe mode.

If you intend to use the highest modes for long periods of time you need to charge the light on a daily basis, and could consider getting a spare battery. foregos the usual knurling, and instead has a series of rings and grooves milled into the body that provide a reasonable amount of grip. In the lowest and middle modes (which should, in most cases, be enough) the light will last quite a lot longer. Founded in 2001, Fenixlight has developed into an international high-tech brand that covers high-end flashlights, headlamps, bicycle lamps, camping lamps and accessories, and is widely used in professional fields such as outdoor, military police, security, industry, etc.You can tell that the spot mode definitely adds to the flood mode, and as such you are left with a hotspot in the hotspot. A: For the purpose of meeting the product design of high performance and compact size at the same time, the battery pack of Fenix LR40R V2. Lifetime maintenance: If repair is required after 2 years from the date of purchase, Fenix will charge for parts.

then settles on a solid 9,000 lumens for an extended run – this is the really impressive feat of the LR40R V2. We see a relatively deep and smooth reflector in the middle and a structured edge around the light source. is hottest, then one which comes near the end of the runtime where in fact the battery pack is hotter than the head as the cells give their last bit of power.On top of the switches you find four small (blue) LED lights that show you the status of the battery. The updated LR40R model refines the operation of the flashlight and boasts increased output and range. And “Medium” is really Medium – I seem to have spaced on running High I (which should be around 3000 lumens). This is the result of the used XHP70 LED lights and the central XP-L HI V3 Led light that the LR40R is enhanced with. The lighting modes are selected using a rotating toggle, simply turn to the required mode then push the central push button for 0.

They’re completely independent – when pressing one, the other one doesn’t move at all (as sometimes happens on dual e-switches that are this close together. Overall, the flashlight feels great in the hand and leaves no cause for concern regarding build quality.

OR, if you don't want to engage lockout, a slight turn of the body, just far enough to disengage the battery, will also prevent accidental activation. Please note, all outputs are measured in total runtime including at reduced levels due to temperature and/or protection mechanisms in the design.
