Fenix PD36R Review - 1600 Lumen Flashlight

Now things I think they could improve on. I would have personally preferred the design to be more like my PD 32, where there's no charging port on the...

I understand the 10 second limit on the 4,000 lumens setting sounds ridiculous to some, but this light is a dream for my use case. Short bursts of All Ze Lumens is exactly what I use my EDC light for in my warehouse/freezer job day to day. After some lights I used daily for a long time that I will not speak of lol, this sub helped me find incredibly more useful and powerful flashlights. Yet, I quickly found my RovyVon Aurora A24 to be just as good at my daily tasks as my Fenix PD36R and Acebeam T36.

Excellent Flashlight, but...

I love Fenix flashlights. They have never failed or let me down. This one is no exception.

However, there are a few things I’m a bit disappointed in:

- The mode selector button is very difficult to find by feel. It is nearly flush with the surface of the barrel, So you can’t feel it. I try to keep ...

Fenix PD36R - no high CRI options. RovyVon - special batteries. OLight Baton Pro - I want a magnetic tail cap but the lack of high CRI kills it. Plus seems kinda overpriced :( also not as bright.

Good but ….

Flashlight is fine and does the job however their battery life claims are ludicrous. The packaging says 5 hours 49 minutes for hi setting (4th most powerful). This claim is 100% baloney. I get about 2 hours if lucky. If anyone has had the battery last 5 hours at high setting, please respond. I don’t...

Looking to upgrade. Recommend your "if you only had one" light.

Fenix pd36r has been good to me. Rechargeable, super bright, and durable. I have that same light as my daily edc also.

Nice light, but....

While I have found nothing I really dislike about the light itself, there is that charging port. It has a silicone rubber port to cover the USB-C charging port and does not come with a battery with a built in port as some of their other lights do. This works great however after a few times opening a...

VERY BRIGHT!

Mostly I use this flashlights to look into my backyard for skunks before I let my dog out. The light can also scare the skunks OUT of the yard which is ideal! This light is VERY bright on it's highest setting (BLINDING! Don't ask how I know that!). Brighter than a GIGANTIC REALLY HEAVY flashlight I'...
