Fenix TK26R Tactical Flashlight

TK26R---Quite possibly the ultimate tactical flashlight

Wanted to upgrade from a Surefire 6P LED that I have had for a loooong time. After some research, I decided to give Fenix a shot. Settled upon the TK26R. Total upgrade is an understatement. Obviously the technology in these LED lights has evolved over the last couple of decades, but the amount of illumination this thing puts out is night and day different than my old light! Size is very similar to the old flashlight---just a bit wider at the business end of things. Handle dimensions are almost the same; a tad larger in diameter, but similar enough to use the old Milt Sparks holster I have for the 6P. The metal belt clip is easy to snap off or back on again, as needed. Haven't used it long enough to comment on battery life. I did buy a couple of extra batteries in different milliamp hour ranges, and plan on buying the charger when it's back in stock. This is a feature-rich flashlight. You get plenty of brightness levels to click through. The strobe effect is right at home at your rave party, or disorienting a perp when it really counts. The choice is yours. The red and green light modes are also useful. I sometimes need to guide trucks in the wee hours, while loading up equipment after professional firework displays. Should be perfect for that. I made sure to pick up some of the AOT-04 silicone cones for this purpose. You can get away with buying the just the clear one for both red and green traffic flagging, but if you want a really dense red color, the opaque red one can come in handy as well. Overall, I'm impressed with this product from Fenix. There are definitely some other products of theirs that I hope to buy someday.

I love it

Absolutely amazingly reliable flashlight! The brightness levels cover the range of what I need on duty - the red and green lights are extremely convenient (Would have liked a way to turn on in that mode without having to swap from the white light first). There is essentially an option for all situations and that is quite nice. The product is sturdy as well. I've dropped it about 3x now - each time pretty hard onto rocks and it tumbled along as well. There are some scuffs but the light itself is intact and works flawlessly. I can recommend this with 100% confidence.
