Warning:
Unscrew the light head to insert the batteries with correct polarity in accordance with the graphics on the top surface of the battery compartment, then screw the light head back on.
The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used on Turbo for extended periods. When the light reaches a temperature of 60°C or above, the light will automatically step down to 300 lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C, it will then automatically return to Turbo mode.
If the above methods don’t work, please contact your authorized distributor.

Like the simple adjustability of the rotator switch. Not a fan of the rear button tactical flashlight on/off switch. I don’t live in a tactical war zone.
Gave it 4 Stars because the rotator switch is a bit on the sloppy side. Other than that is a great piece.
Eco is only 5 lumens which is great for most everything and then when you want to upset the neighborhood High is 1000 Lumens.

If I’d read the reviews I wouldn’t basically be repeating the first review listed on the site – great flashlight, don’t mind that it may go through batteries fast (which actually hasn’t been my experience), because it was purchased for an emergency kit because it takes common batteries. I will also accept that the fault lies with me for not reading the description more closely, but Fenix’s two other flat body flashlights have aluminum bodies, it didn’t even occur to me that they would slap a plastic body on this single flat body flashlight. I think most people would prefer a slightly higher price for this flashlight with an aluminum body. Fenix are well made flashlights that are not cheap; unfortunately this one feels a bit cheap.

Been searching for a light that uses a common battery and will produce something bright 300+ lumens. Nice thing is that its compact and has a pretty far throw. Its quite tough to find a light that will give you this result for the duration before you go to some sort of rechargeable or 123 battery which aren’t as common should you run into a situation.
