Fenix PD40R V2.0 Rechargeable LED Torch

The Fenix PD40R V2.0 is a compact rechargeable torch, that still boasts the amazing 3000 lumens output as it's predecessor, but now utilises a different LED, battery and switch design, and throws the beam further.

Equipped with a powerful Luminus SST70 LED and powered by one high capacity 21700 rechargeable lithium-ion battery, the Fenix PD40R V2.0 puts out a superb performance with a beam distance of 405 metres in turbo. The overall beam profile delivers a 65° wide area illumination for comfortable use at shorter distances but also has the ability see further with the central hot spot, making it a perfect balance.

The included Fenix 21700 5000 mAh lithium-ion battery charges inside the torch via the USB-C charging port for faster charging. Remove the dust cover from the USB-C port, located on the neck of the torch, and plug the included cable into the torch one end and the other end into a computer/laptop or a suitable USB mains/car adaptor.

The LED charging indicator next to the charging port will go red to indicate charging is in progress and will turn green once charging is complete after approximately 3 hours when charging the included battery.

Four brightness levels of low, mid, high and turbo are available, as well as strobe. Due to the extreme output the turbo output will automatically decrease when the internal temperature of the torch reaches 65°, dropping down to mid to protect the LED from overheating before increasing the brightness again as the torch cools.

Unlike it's predecessor, the PD40R V2.0 does not have a tail switch and instead features a newly designed second generation mechanical rotary switch, which is free from magnetic field interference. The smooth switch allows easy and clear selection of the modes with the four marker lines which get longer in length to correspond with the increase in output and the strobe marker is the last setting indicated by a lightening bolt symbol.

With the anti-slip design you can easily use one hand to rotate the switch to the right to increase brightness or all the way right to access strobe, and then turn it left to decrease the brightness and turn it off. This operation is simple even with heavy duty gloves, and can be done without looking or fumbling around for a button.

The LED next to the charging port is also a battery level indicator and will light up for 3 seconds when the torch is first turned on, with either a green, green flashing, red or red flashing light to show the battery power remaining and notify you when the battery needs charging.

When the voltage of the torch drops below a preset level, the voltage warning function will downshift to a lower brightness level the until the low level is reached, at which point the indicator next to the charging port will flash red to remind you to charge the battery.

Due to the wide range of outputs the PD40R V2.0 is perfect for a range of activities and tasks, making it a great all-rounder.
