Charging the Fenix CL26R Rechargeable Lantern

Operation: With the lantern switched off, remove the dust cover to reveal the charging port and plug the Micro USB end of the USB cable into the lantern’s charging port. Then connect the other end of the USB cable to a USB power adaptor. 

Charging Indicator: The indicators near the switch will display charging status. Four indicators will remain constant on when the battery is fully charged. 

 

Note: 

1. The normal charging time is about 2.5 hours from fully depleted to fully charged with the light off. 

2. Only Low output can be used while the light is being charged, but charging time will be prolonged.

With the light switched off, single click the switch to check the battery status. The battery level indicators will display the battery status for 3 seconds. 

One light on: critical, 0% - 25% 

Two lights on: poor, 26% - 50% 

Three lights on: sufficient, 51% - 85% 

Four lights on: saturated, 86% - 100%

 

Low-Voltage Warning

When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the first indicator flashes to remind you to recharge the battery. To ensure normal use, the lantern will not turn off automatically and will work till the battery level runs out.

 

Usage and Maintenance for the Fenix CL26R Rechargeable Lantern

  • Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the lantern and will void the warranty.
  • Fenix recommends using excellent-quality batteries.
  • If the light will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries or the lantern could be damaged by electrolyte leakage or battery explosion.
  • Recharge the light timely when the battery level is critical, for future use.
  • Recharge a stored light every three months to maintain optimal battery performance.
  • Replace the dust cover when charging is complete to ensure waterproof and dustproof performance.
  • Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the ring with an approved spare.
  • Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the lamp's performance, as dirty contacts may cause the lamp to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate for the following reasons: 
    A: The battery needs replacing. 
    Solution: Replace battery (ensure battery is inserted according to the manufacturer’s specifications). 
    B: The threads, PCB board contact or other contacts are dirty. 
    Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.

If the above methods don't work, please contact your authorized distributor.

 

Warning

Love this lantern!

I received my first Fenix CL26R Rechargeable Lantern as a birthday present! We use it every camping trip in our tent and bought another to replace all our other lights! We have never had to recharge the lantern while we are camping (one week, three weeks!) - dependable and excellent quality!

This lantern is probably smaller than you think. Pictures can make it look big. It is very compact and perfect for backpacking. It is adequately bright for use inside a tent and for keeping in your car just in case. Very durable and well made. Waterproof/dustproof rating of IP66. It can handle most any situation you find yourself in. Lifetime warranty and excellent customer service. Well worth the price. Highly recommended.

Sweet!

Where I live the power goes out all the time from straight line winds. For years I've been using 2 old energizer led lanterns. When i got them They were great.
II bought my first Fenix product maybe 10 years ago and have been hooked on their products ever since. Finally I bought the cl26r because of the 18650 battery.
I should have done that a long time ago. I'm thinking 2 more should do it.
