HM70R Instant Favorite

Ambassador Cody D.

With projects running longer than the day now I find myself working past dark to get things done. The HM70R has quickly became my favorite headlight. Fenix took my old favorite and improved upon it with
1. 21700 5000mah battery This light last forever, seriously I can get through week or more of pm, inspections, and service before recharging.
2. USB-C charging
3. a second mode called “functional” mode give an amazing flood light that illuminates everything in arms length, with no ripples or lines in the light pattern. I use this for 90% of my HVAC work
4. Brightness increased to 1600 lumens. you basically have a PD36R strapped to you head as it has plenty of spot and spill over light to light up a building a hundred feet away.
5. Grippy headband, This new light has a grippy material on the headband and keeps it from moving even without the band being synched up, a very welcome feature.
to get the light into functional mode you need to first visit red mode and then cycle through that is slightly annoying it doesn’t have memory what mode you were using last and keep you there. even with this one thing the HM70R is easily my favorite headlamp. well done Fenix another homerun in my book.

I have included 2 pictures to show what I mean about the two different light modes.
