Dual Switches
The round switch is the tactical switch and the oval switch the functional switch.
ON/OFF
Tap the tactical switch to momentarily turn on the light; the light will activate last memorized output on White mode, or Red high on colored mode; release and the light will go out.
Fully press the tactical switch to constantly turn on the light. Press again to turn off the light.
With the light switched off, press the functional switch for instant strobe activation on White mode, or to enter Red high on colored mode; release it and the light will go out.
Strobe
With the light switched on on White mode – long press the functional switch to activate strobe. Click once again to return to previous output.
Output Selection
With the light on on White mode – single click the functional switch to cycle through Low→Med→High→Turbo.
With the light on on colored mode – single click the functional switch to cycle through Red High→Red Low→Blue.
Mode Switching
Rotate the light head to switch between white and colored light.
Intelligent Memory Circuit
The light memorizes the last selected brightness level on White light mode. When turned on again the previously used brightness level will be recalled.
Low-voltage Warning
When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the flashlight is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Low output is reached. When this happens in Low output mode, the flashlight blinks three times every five minutes to remind you to replace the battery. To ensure normal use, the flashlight will not turn off automatically and will work till the battery runs out completely. (White light flashes on white light and Red flashes on colored light.)
Intelligent Overheat Protection
The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used on Turbo output level for extended periods. When the light reaches a temperature of 65°C or above, the light will automatically step down by a few lumens to reduce temperature. When the temperature is reduced, the output will gradually return to Turbo output level.
Battery Replacement
Unscrew the tail cap to insert the battery with the anode side (+) towards the light head, then screw the tail cap back on.
Usage and Maintenance
- Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the light and will void the warranty.
- Fenix recommends using an excellent quality battery.
- If the light will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery, or the light could be damaged by electrolyte leakage or battery explosion.
- Unscrew the tail cap half a turn or take out the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.
- 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 batteries need replacing.
Solution: Replace batteries (Ensure batteries are 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.

Fantastic product. One of the best lights I have owned.

Haven’t had this light long but so far it’s lived up to it’s Fenix pedigree. Holding on a 5 rating only for that reason, otherwise an excellent multi function light. The dial beam selector and push button switch combination is well thought out and works smoothly but solidly. Great light so far!

seems to be a great flashlight. Bought it for tracking deer. No opportunities yet, but hopefully I’ll have a chance to see how it works before the end of the season!

Excellent flashlight. Easier to use than the instructions were to read. Nice glass lens. Correct red + blue wavelengths. Rotating head great feature. Only white/red/blue flashlight I could find since Pelican quit making theirs. Very good customer service with nice help understanding features before buying. Fast shipping too. And cheaper than Amazon !!

Had it for a month and so far so good. What I like best is that there are two red light settings one is REALLY bright. This is exactly what I need for the outdoor drives on my upcoming safari.

Excellent light but uses expensive batteries. Definitely worth upgrade to rechargeable. Big advantage to have white and red light for hunting with option to use disposable batteries if tracking takes longer then expected.

Super bright and multiple uses with different colors

Nice size, hefty enough but portable. VERY bright on turbo mode. Multiple colors very nice. As others have stated it would be nice on color mode to keep the setting when turned on and off, but this is a minor issue. Rechargeable lithium batteries are great.

I liked to Lumens power of this light and the ease to change between lighting modes

Well made. Sturdy. Bright. Love it. Wish it was about $20.00 cheaper, but it is a great light for work!!! Only reason I didn’t rate it a five star purchase is price.

Very bright, well built flashlight

I have an older Fenix that says it is 320 Lumens and this new one doesn’t seem to be any brighter. Also the beam is not as focused as I had hope. All in all though I love the light and all the features. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good quality light.

I use this light primarily for hunting. I bought it as a blood trailing light. It is by far the brightest LED light I have ever owned. I also used it to shine fields in the dark and the distance is incredible. Perfect size for stuffing in a hunting pack. Very easy to click on and off, and to switch the red/blue lighting. Great light, seems very well made, and look forward to using it for many seasons.

Great flashlight! Bought it for hunting predators and have taken it camping. The different modes and brightness levels are a great feature. Can’t wait to spot coyotes with it!

I’m a boat captain and I like that I don’t have to change linses to use a red light so I can keep my night vision. I would like one a little more pocket size and specific made for marine purposes. Other then that it’s perfect.

Very good light, Great for Law Enforcement, Tactical use as well as LE Training in all low light conditions. I have never been disappointed with a Fenix Light….. Would highly recommend any of these lights to Law Enforcement or just the Tactical Gurus……..

Very versatile light with multipurpose applications. Hunters will find it useful with the red setting for a “kill light”, the blue setting for map reading and movement at night, and the white setting for going in and setting up before dawn or withdrawing after dark. The addition of the 3500U battery adds the versatility of solar charging your light’s battery without extra hardware to keep your pack light. Very solid product and we’ll worth the money.
