I've had one of these since 2022 and have been very happy with it.

Fantastic review! This was/is my first ‘upper echelon’ EDC torch/light, and coming from Maglites - just wow. Feel like I stepped into a whole new realm…that could become a bit of collector hobby 😅

I should have another Fenix review in a few weeks I think

With the discounts I picked this up at the Fenix store for $48 after shipping. Was comparing to the Olight Baton 3, but since that starts at $65, the Fenix just makes more sense. I'd rather have the universal compatibility of USB-C vs a proprietary charger anyway.

I'm hating on this light because it went up in size due to a change in charging to type C. It is longer thicker and heavier. It is disappointing to say the least.

I have v1 of this light, I was hoping that they had updated the interface for v2, but guess not. Hold to switch on and then a slightly longer hold to get into strobe is a horrendous choice, so many times with the v1 I've gotten into strobe by accident because I've held the button a millisecond too long. Other than the interface, it's a nice light (interface is a deal breaker for me though).

Glad I'm not the only one here that had that issue.

The v1 is better. Long run too

Yes. And the lack of magnetic charging and size increase is a problem for me, looking for the smallest rechargeable 16340 light.

When I lightly rub the side button with my thumb, I can feel some play. It wobbles a little. Is it normal?

How does it compare to the Sofirn sc21 pro? I like the deep carry and higher cri of the sofirn
@benbraceletspurple91086 ай бұрын
Deep carry for flashlights is slightly hazardous. I recommend turning off everytime with lockout.

This or baton?
@jessa.3857 Жыл бұрын
If you need a floodier light, get e18r V2. If you want more throw, get baton 3.

Fenix pd25r vs fenix e18r the best?

Out of those two I have only tried the e18R myself

Can you run this on a powerbank
@LiquidRetro8 ай бұрын
I woukd guess yes. Most usb rechargeable flashlights can at lower powers. I haven't tried it here though
