Product Overview

The Fenix PD35R ACE is a next-generation flashlight built for those who demand the ultimate control in any environment. As part of the Advanced Command Edition (ACE) Series, it’s engineered for optimum performance, with refined features that make operation faster, cleaner, and more intuitive. Delivering up to 2000 lumens and a 1247-foot (380-meter) beam, the PD35R ACE doesn’t just light up the dark, it cuts through it.

SET mode, a hidden switch tucked beneath the neck of the flashlight that puts configuration in your hands. Choose between three preset options so you’re in control of how you’d like to operate the flashlight. Once you lock in your preference, it’s all action—no distractions. You can even disable the Strobe mode if you so choose. 

Built tough with a protected USB-C port, which adds to its IP68 rated dust and waterproof rating, and impact resistant to 1.5 meters, the PD35R ACE is the choice for law enforcement, outdoor missions, and everyday precision.

*18650 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Using low-quality batteries or mishandling batteries (such as short-circuiting or overheating) could lead to combustion and jeopardize the safety of users and property. Any adverse effects resulting from the use of low-quality batteries are not covered by any Fenix warranty or liability. Using quality batteries with circuit protection will reduce the potential for combustion or explosion.

 

Battery Replacement

Unscrew the light tail and insert the battery with the anode side (+) towards the light head, then screw the light tail back on.

 

Charging 

  1. Loosen the light neck to reveal the USB Type-C charging port, then connect the USB Type-C end of the charging cable to the light. 

  2. The indicator will display red while charging and will turn green when fully charged. 

  3. Once charging is completed, be sure to unplug the charging cable and tighten the light neck to ensure normal use.

Note:

  1. The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L18-4000 battery is approximately 3 hours from depleted to fully charged with a 5 V/3 A charging adapter.

  2. Recharge a stored light every four months to maintain the optimum performance of the battery.

  3. Press and hold the neck-mounted switch for 0.5 seconds to turn on/off the light while charging. During charging, the tail switch will not respond to any operation.

  4. After turning off the light with the neck-mounted switch, if the tail switch is in fully pressed state while unplugging the charging cable, the light will light up automatically and recall the previously used brightness level.

Battery Level Indication 

Each time the light is turned on, the indicator will show the current battery level and will last for 3 seconds.  

Green light on: saturated 100% - 85%

Green light flashes: sufficient 85% - 50%

Red light on: poor 50% - 25% 

Red light flashes: critical 25% - 1%

*Note: This feature only works with a Fenix ARB-L18 Series battery.

 

Intelligent Overheat Protection            

The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used at high output levels for extended periods. When the light reaches a temperature of 60°C/140°F or above, it will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C/140°F, the light will gradually recall the preset output level.

 

Low-voltage Warning

When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the light is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Eco output is reached. When this happens in Eco output, the battery level indicator blinks red to remind users to replace or recharge the battery in a timely manner.

*Note: This feature only works with a Fenix ARB-L18 Series battery.

 

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.

  • Unscrew the light tail a few turns or remove the battery to prevent accidental activation when the light is placed in a closed and flammable environment such as pockets and backpacks!

  • Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the O-ring with an approved spare.

  • Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the light's performance as dirty contacts may cause the light to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate for the following reasons:
    A: Poor battery level.
    Solution: Replace or recharge the battery (Ensure the battery is inserted according to the manufacturer’s specifications).
    B: The contact or contact point of the battery or flashlight is 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

  • Do NOT place this light in the reach of children!

  • Do NOT shine the light directly into the eyes of anyone!

  • Do NOT place light head near flammable objects, high temperatures can cause objects to overheat and become flammable/ignite!

  • Do NOT use the light in inappropriate ways such as holding the unit in your mouth, doing so could cause serious personal injury or death if the flashlight or internal battery fails!

  • This light will accumulate a significant amount of heat while operating, resulting in a high temperature of the flashlight shell. Pay close attention to avoid burns.

  • Unscrew the light tail a few turns or take out the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.

  • The LED of this light is not replaceable; so the whole light will need to be replaced when the LED reaches the end of its lifespan.
