New Fenix E Series EDC Flashlights!

[@GehWegX]

Fenix has new E12 V3.0, very great 👌🏼

[@Use_emorLose_em]

Have been edc my E12 for over 3 yrs now . Never failed me.

[@sanjaydalvi4385]

Same here.

[@WtfYoutube_YouSuck]

how many times have you actually needed it?

[@Use_emorLose_em]

@@WtfKZbin_YouSuck use it daily

[@alexc1287]

I love those small keychain flashlights, it's easy to throw them in a bag and you always have a flashlight handy. I like that E12.

@Avengers: The Investing Initiative Didn't realize backpacks aren't for real men, you still wearing jnco's too manly man?

[@Reasonably-Sane]

Wow, I didn't know Fenix came out with a E12v2! Thanks for reviewing it Chrispy Things! I've been carrying the original E12 for years, and I love the reliability, ease of use, small form factor, and its ability to tail stand. The E12 had lumen steps at 8-50-130. I think I would like the E12v2 5-30-160 better. Not only that, but the v2 has a better IPX rating, and comes with a reversible/2-way clip out of the box! I had to order a clip from Olight to get one, after doing research on tube diameters. I'll definitely be buying an upgrade, especially since they kept the price the same! I've got a drawer of Ni-Mh rechargable Eneloop batteries that were perfect for my E12. Now they'll be able to power my new E12v2 thanks to your review, Chrispy! Thanks again!

[@ChrispyThings]

Definitely worth the upgrade!

[@coldreaderNETNEWS]

the old e 12 is better. the beam reaches much further then the crappy new version. you won´t find a better lamp than the old e12.

[@michaeltrevino201]

Drooling over the EO3R like, "Damn I can't wait to lose that"

[@ChrispyThings]

Haha

[@betteryou_psych]

Love my E12 v2.0! It's a great compact light with very functional output levels and runtimes.

[@TURB0x6]

It's awesome they are keeping the E series alive. I'd love to see an update for the E41. 4x AA soda can style light, very compact...I still use mine every so often.

[@mr.l6615]

I just bought the E01 V2 as well as the E03r and they are great! I already have the E05 and have used it hard for 6+ years or so. Not bad light for a small easy to carry light. The E03r is crazy bright for it's size. Love both my new toys!

[@ChrispyThings]

Nice!

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

Those are some awesome lights. Great video man. I love a good flashlight.

[@groundhog5923]

Keychain lights are getting amazing. The similarly sized Nitecore TIP2 is becoming one of my favorites.

[@ChrispyThings]

The TIP2 is a cool little light.

[@greekveteran2715]

The 125 Lumens LD12, with the rubber button, was the best AA edc Flashlight Fenix has produced. Since then, the lumens got a raise, but everything else became worse. From the chiply feel metal button, to the much less runtime. Even the moonlight mode got worse, from 3 lumens, they got it to 5. That LD12 loaded with Energizer Lithium or Energizer Max plus, or even rechargables, IMO was the best edc single AA torch. PS If you can still find one in stock or even used, grab it and you 'll never look back! They just don't make 'em that good anymore!

[@jshepard152]

Agree. I have one from 2013-14 and I love it.

[@ZippoVarga]

I've been a flashlight nerd since the early 1980's when Maglite first entered the scene. Since then, I've amassed a rather extensive collection spanning many makers. The last purchase I blame on you which was the Nitecore TIP SE, and I've been very impressed with it. A little bulky for my EDC, but I do find it making its way into my daily life. Prior to this one, I had been utilizing my little Nebo Mycro. Although it's a nice little torch, the TIP SE has a better interface and that Turbo Mode should be called Beast Mode. I'd like to see the E03R with a turbo mode to rival the Nitecore TIP SE. Thanks for the mash up of Fenix lights my Friend! Cheers! Zip~

[@ChrispyThings]

That TIP SE is one amazing little light. The E03R has a smaller body and can’t compare with light output of the TIP SE. I just love those red modes

[@lonelytraveller7851]

A lot of thanks for introducing new Fenix E-series!👍Actually getting learnt first than I know from dealer☝️🙂

[@JaayTea2595]

I wish the E03R would have came on red light first

[@zerosvsalone]

Hi some quick question I'm just wondering if I can use the Fenix AA USB rechargeable battery on the E12 v2? the fenix USB rechargeable AA is a lithium ion, 1.5V with same dimension with the AA. (code ARB-L14-1600U). Thanks!

[@jtg_edc]

I don't have an AA flashlight so I might check out that E12. I'm not sure how I feel about square/rectangular/cube flashlights... i think I just have to get my hands on one to get a feel. And i found a wallet that you night wanna check out.. just search MGear FlexID Ultraslim ID Holder and Wallet on Amazon.

[@ChrispyThings]

I’ll check it out. Thanks!

[@michaelmelling9333]

Very nice review!

[@MrMilirocksvlogs]

I have Fenixes, E01, E25, E15, E12 V1, E12 V2, E20 V2, E02R. From the E series.

[@ChrispyThings]

Very nice 👍🏻

[@Parker_Jim]

Great little flashlights. Really like the E12 and the keychain one. I can see getting a few and have one in my vehicle and a bag or just on my soon to have Slayer keybar.

[@ChrispyThings]

They’re really affordable too so it won’t break the bank to get a few. And congrats on the Slayer titanium. I absolutely love mine.

[@Cynicism101]

Got the E12 V2 a couple of days ago, really excellent little light, slips securely into the Molle straps on my Rush 12 pack so I always know where it is, definitely recommend it.

[@calv1740]

Love that tail switch on the warrior mini@

[@romeokamei8457]

Sir can you please tell me that e12 v2 fenix torch can be replaced by ni-mh rechargeable battery?

[@josemariac.1808]

Very good flashlights. I didn't know which one buy, and at the end, I decided to buy the three ones. 🤣🤣🤣

[@ChrispyThings]

Haha. Of course!

[@JC-km2io]

Does the E12 v2 have momentary on? That is the one thing for me that would've made the original E12 the perfect edc flashlight.

[@ChrispyThings]

Unfortunately it doesn’t.

[@jingledubz3989]

Awesome video as usual, CT! Man, these little lights are so cool. Really like the e12. Recently purchased the Powertac E3 with your awesome discount code (thank you), and might pick up this e12 too. Rock on, man. 🤘👍💪

[@ChrispyThings]

The E12 v2 is a great little light for the price.

[@Jaysedc]

Just bought me one of these keychain lights so hopefully il like it

[@gurralavenkatesh6168]

Fenix E03r awesome my favourite keychain flashlight

[@couchfighter]

I have a Original EO1..AND A E05 SS...BOTH ARE GREAT RELIABLE LIGHTS. i GAVE THE EO1 TO MY DAD 7 YEARS AGO AND HES STILL GOT IT ON HIS OLD JEEPS KEYCHAIN. However I just replaced my EO5SS with a RovyVon A3 700 lumens and usb internal battery! IMO it far surpasses these lights

[@spamcan9208]

The main selling point of these lights is it uses readily available batteries. You can get them almost anywhere in the world. While it's true they can't match the performance of rechargeable lithium batteries you can still get great performance that will meet most users' average daily needs with an easily replaceable power source. It's all about application, I don't think one type is better than the other.

[@ezquimal]

I use energizer lithium in the e12 the best that I find. Runtime 1 year at least.

[@grizzlycountry1030]

I always use Energizer lithium batteries.

[@mgg5050]

Nebo mycro... crushes all lights you list and is half the size and with 400lm. It my keychain light of choice and if I need more check out the torchey by nebo...

[@Yamelha207]

Fenix e12 or Olight I5T EOS CU What would you prefer for edc?

[@ChrispyThings]

The E12 over the i5t. But if you’re specifically talking about the i5t in copper, then yes I prefer the i5t copper version as an edc. Just my personal preference

[@steventom892]

I wish you would have put all 3 side by side. Good vid.

[@ChrispyThings]

What do you mean? Like I did in the thumbnail or the beams side by side?

[@steventom892]

@@ChrispyThings Like the thumbnail. Since they are all keychain lights, it would be nice to have a relative comparison. Thanks for the reply.

[@superboylt1]

Due you have to put a 14500 on the E12!!! Nice video 👍

[@jshepard152]

It won't run on a 14500.

[@dimazimmer175]

these are great

[@zerosvsalone]

what would be your opinion between LD30 vs E12 V2? I would love to know anyone opinion! considering to get either one! Thank you!

[@martinaee]

Those are super different lights. If I remember correctly the LD30 is their new super thrower which uses a tech more akin to a laser. The E12v2 is a good general purpose light.

[@zerosvsalone]

@@martinaee thanks! I was considering for a long time between tactical option or smaller lighter edc.

[@el_cheburante7736]

Хороший обзор, только вот Феникс облажались, такой фонарик был бы актуален лет пять назад. Могу порекомендовать автору более интересный фонарик от Люминтоп tool AA 2.0, он более всеяден, литий, никель и алкалин подходят. Есть выбор, холодный либо нейтральный светодиод.

[@КириллНемасев]

А альтернативу e03r можешь посоветовать в подобном формате? Есть i3EOS Olight формой не удобный, включение одной рукой сложновато, закручивать нужно.

[@el_cheburante7736]

@@КириллНемасев Честно говоря, я фонарями такого форм факта не пользуюсь. Комент был написан по отношению к E12 v.2, ну и Е01 v.2. По чему-то похожем на E03R, есть не плохой обзор у "Lumeniac" о Найткоровском TIP SE.

[@КириллНемасев]

@@el_cheburante7736 Спасибо, как раз вот такой формат интересен. Буду сравнивать.

[@isaacragsdale999]

Is there a kind of rechargeable battery that would work for the e12 2.0?

[@spamcan9208]

Yes, Panasonic's Eneloop brand of NiMH (nickel metal hydride) are a great rechargeable battery. You'll notice a difference in run times on brighter settings when the current demand is higher.
