[@arnaudbazin7093]

Exactly !! but at least we found it xD😆

[@TheHOWESBRAD]

He’ll never see again but we saw him just fine!

[@highcountryhay]

Would love to see Fenix make a 4 cell 21700 double stacked 2 long so it would be the same width as the 35R just longer. They could go with 5000mah so you would have 10000mah at 7.2v. Could be sweet…

[@theruffedge94]

Love my LR80R got 2 extra batteries yes alot of weight but worth every step with it to have daylight at the push of a button .

[@j.p.4541]

I love the LR35R it has a perfect balance of spill, with great throw and good run times for its size.

[@coburn_karma]

I wish fenix would offer an oven mit for the LR35, it's a HOT Potatoe after 4 minutes of use on turbo. Turbo high is the only reason I bought the darn thing but its run time is so short.

[@ToxicityAssured]

@@coburn_karma No light is meant to be on turbo for very long. Many have trouble not getting overly hot on high. Fenix did ok on the lr35r I think. Six large emitters in a small head must get warm though. Medium and high are both bright. For my needs, turbo is too much most of the time. Different needs for different users, bless the large market! Sine on

[@EdwardPollaro]

Great review! Thank you. I was about to order the 80 and now torn between the lr60r and the lr80r. Whats your thoughts?

[@martinaee]

Fenix always bringing the best. This thing is no doubt way out of my budget right now, but I can dream :) I wish they would FINALLY update the LD22. Still the same old 2015 version (2aa light). That 450 lumen mode for close to 40 hours is the sweet spot if you want to keep this one light for long power outages potentially. Honestly even for that though you can use a much smaller AA or 18650 light and just have... extra batteries lol. This definitely is, shall we say, a real enthusiast light.

[@richschwartz8004]

Wow that's a beast. Looking forward to your presale Olight video later this month. Thanks for sharing. God bless and stay safe.

[@petzlju]

Can you rotate the clip that’s on the bottom because mine is on the opposite side and I was wondering if you strap it and needs to be even with the handle

[@tankdiesel9738]

Amazing... I always liked the LR50R but that 80 is incredible... keep up the great work Harley👍👊

[@kfeltenberger]

Excellent video though I have to ask...other than battery life at much lower levels, what would you use this for? Given the intensity at high output, the light pretty much washes out everything you would be looking at/for.

[@arjunprabhu6742]

Amazing… !! Does it get too hot to hold ?

[@mikemorgan2733]

Thx for the review. I just bought the LR50r but am going to buy the 80 too. Question I have is about the handle. Is it removable? Well Duh, I watched your vid again and there was the answer....Thx

[@KrisCox]

Nice review, Harley! I think you chose a good set of lights to compare against. The “stepping up” of the levels for the Fenix lights was clear, and tossing in the Olight Marauder 2 was nice, too. There’s a definite difference in the beam patterns of the lights (wrt the flood setting on the Olight), and given the arrangement of the LEDs in the head, that makes sense. If you’re looking to punch a hole through a thick piece of darkness (cast the beam for a long distance), the Fenix is the clear winner, and it’s no slouch on the spill, either. I can understand your lack of love for the spot beam on the Olight; the aspheric lens treatment isn’t for everyone, but it sure does make a single LED with lesser output throw a nice, tight beam for a good long distance. I think the only other (effective) option for long throw from a single emitter right now would be an LEP light.

[@AshLagondar]

Would this blind someone if they broke into your house?

[@rw81696]

Is the LR80 usable while charging?

[@lieto360]

Only on Eco mode.

[@jeron9272]

It has 2 hours at max, and significantly more at lower levels. There’s no need to charge it while using it.

[@Rendo87]

This is the endgame of flashlights. I do wonder, however, when looking at the technical parameters table of the LR50R and the LR80R, that the LR50R has 4000 more mAh than the LR80R, but run times are significantly lower. Around half of the run times of the LR80R on all brightness settings, except for the 12,000 and 6,000 lumens modes. Do you have an explanation for this? Is this a mistake by Fenix?

[@HarleyWood23]

I’m no expert on electronics, but I believe the different voltages affect the drain on that capacity.

[@Hellboy-V]

Lr50r uses on older version of leds... while the lr80r uses very high tech luminos leds... more efficient and more effective. Waaay better...

[@urbanjungle9600]

Great review Harley, thanks for sharing your insights. Have to say I’m very impressed with the 2 Fenix lights I have, tough, well made and dependable which I’m sure these new ones will be too.

[@landryorlando]

Does it get to hot if your using it to hike at night

[@jeron9272]

Yes. But you won’t be using it at its brightest setting for a long period of time. If you want it that bright, walk during the day. This light is extremely bright, and lights 1/4 the cost will satisfy your needs.

its been awhile since last looks into good flashlight, but i have been a Fenix fan for years. that was a great review, you have sold me on wanting one. i know this video is a year old, but if you read this, what 2 lights were you using for the intro? very funny by the way. thanks!

[@garycrawford26]

I’d like to see this comparison with the Olight Javelot turbo with 422,500 candela…

[@-joo3033]

Totally different class of light tho...

[@MrChamberlaindavidd]

Thanks for this. I'm actually trying to choose between these two right now. It's the built in battery pack which doesn't allow spares that's got me torn. Your review was helpful. Thanks.

[@ToxicityAssured]

While not cheap, you can get additional packs to swap in if you don't have time to recharge. I called Fenix and was able to get a lr80r battery easily.

[@MrChamberlaindavidd]

@@ToxicityAssured I submitted across that little bit of info myself the other day but doesn't it take a micro screwdriver and require you to disassemble the body to swap that battery. Wouldn't be very easy to do in the dark or in an emergency or very quick. And the only price I can find on that battery is like 250 bucks or something. It can be done but it isn't very practical which is disappointing.

[@ToxicityAssured]

@@MrChamberlaindaviddThe light is just two parts that easily screw together in just a few seconds without any tools. I can swap my battery in the dark one handed. The head portion contains all the LED's and driver circuit. The thinner handle attaches to the head. The entire main handle portion is the battery. The main handle part contains the six 21700 cells. The cells can't be removed from the handle tube, but the entire handle just unscrews. So to be technical... The cells are not replaceable, but the battery is easily unscrewed and replaced. Like if this comment helped!

The olight marauder is a better size but I sold my marauder 2 and got this one. You can't take it everywhere but its hella bright and the quality it unbelievable. If you want size get the marauder if you want power and runtimes get this!

[@adammcguinness9950]

I have the Marauder and it’s awesome. It gets heavy after a couple of hours so I could only imagine how heavy the Fenix is.

[@warriorsage591]

@@adammcguinness9950 yeah the marauder is a good light

[@nitric75]

@@warriorsage591 I went for the LR50R instead of the marauder 2. Might be getting the LR80R which is way less bulky than the new Lumintop BLF GT94X but sacrifice on throw and brightness. I already "played" with the LR80R when i met the seller to get my acebeam x50 with SS bezel 3 days ago. LR80R is pretty solid (as all fenix lights are) and well balanced when held with the handle.

I've been watching you from the shadows for a while for flashlight videos and this time if I got motivated to leave a comment! hope you enjoy ;) The little French guy

[@sokolum]

LR50R seems not that bad and able to use regular batteries..

[@-joo3033]

This is more suited for actual professional use anyways, +1,6kg for 18000 lumens means it can run way brighter for longer than a smaller light "coke can size" lights cant handle this much output for long, or even half or what this does...

[@rupertm2542]

So £400 and once the battery is fcuk’d it’s game over. Sod that.
