FENIX PD35R RECHARGEABLE FLASHLIGHT

The Fenix PD35R is a compact, high-performance tactical flashlight and an upgraded successor to the popular Fenix UC35 V2.0. Its Luminus SFT40 LED produces up to 1700 lumens and illuminates distances of up to 353 metres. Combining a rugged construction with straightforward controls, the PD35R is suitable for everyday use as well as situations that require a powerful and dependable light source.

The flashlight features two tail switches for quick and convenient operation. The larger tactical switch turns the flashlight on and off, while the smaller functional switch lets you cycle through the six lighting modes. The dual-switch system also provides quick, separate access to Strobe mode.

The Fenix PD35R is powered by the included rechargeable 18650 3400 mAh Li-ion battery, but it is also compatible with two CR123A lithium batteries. The built-in USB-C charging port allows you to recharge the battery directly inside the flashlight. A battery level indicator on the body displays the charge level when the light is switched on and provides a low-voltage warning.

The body is made from durable A6061-T6 aluminium alloy and finished with premium HAIII hard anodising for improved resistance to wear. Its IP68 rating provides complete dust protection and waterproof performance when submerged to a depth of up to two metres. Compact dimensions, a pocket clip and a lanyard make the Fenix PD35R a practical companion for everyday carry and outdoor use.
