Fenix Lighting PD36R V2.0 Lithium Ion 1700 Lumens Luminus SFT40 LED Flashlight, Black, PD36RV2BK
Compatibility Tags
Overview
The Fenix PD36R V2.0 splits the difference between pocket EDC and full tactical carry. 1,700 lumens with a 396-meter beam runs on a single 21700 with USB-C in the battery, the same USB-C-in-cell system Fenix uses across the TK16 and TK30. The LED is a Luminus SFT40 tuned for throw more than flood.
The tail tactical switch and neck-mounted side switch provide a clear handheld interface, and the 5-lumen Eco mode is low enough for pure navigation use, a feature the TK16 lacks. Six modes and IP68 rating round out the package.
This is the Fenix to pick if you want one light that handles EDC and occasional duty use. Grab the TK16 if pure tactical interface matters more, or the PD36R Pro if you want 2,800 lumens in the same form factor.
