Frequently asked questions

Which AAA batteries can be used in the Fenix WF05E?

Use two 1.5 V alkaline batteries of the same model at a time. Approved models are Energizer E92, Duracell MN2400 and Panasonic LR03XWA. Open the flashlight and replace the batteries outside the potentially explosive area.

In which Ex zones can the Fenix WF05E be used?

The manufacturer specifies gas zones 1 and 2 and combustible dust zones 21 and 22. Before use, compare the flashlight's full Ex marking with the workplace zone, substance group and temperature requirements.

How do I change the brightness level on the WF05E?

Rotate the flashlight head to cycle through the levels in the order medium, high and low. There is an off position between the levels.

When is the Fenix WF05E the right choice?

The WF05E is suitable if you need a lightweight Ex flashlight in your workwear pocket for inspecting gauges, labels and nearby components. If you frequently inspect equipment farther away or a larger area, consider the Fenix WF30RE with a longer beam, provided its marking also meets the workplace requirements.

We recommend

Before your shift, try all three brightness levels in a safe area and check that the flashlight head is securely attached. Select spare batteries by model number and keep two new batteries of the same model in a separate case. When replacing the batteries, check the seal and follow the polarity markings on the body. Close the flashlight before returning to the potentially explosive area.

Start with the 10 lm setting to read a gauge or label. For a shiny scale, direct the light from the side so that reflections do not obscure the reading. To inspect a component deeper inside, try the 30 lm setting and use the 85 lm light when you need to look farther away briefly. Attach the flashlight to the same pocket each time so you can find it by touch even while wearing gloves.
