Fenix TK35UE V2.0 Flashlight - 5000 Lumens

TK35UE

Super bright with the usual Fenix quality

Bad product—at least mine is

Bought it a month ago but didn’t use it till tonight. In 5 minutes the flashlight beings to get really hot; then the temperature just continues rising. I turned it off and took the batteries out. It even makes the batteries hot.

Great light, a bit bulky for EDC

I’ve been carrying a Fenix PD35 for over eight years. It’s been the most bullet proof light I’ve ever owned, but I wanted to see if I could get something a bit brighter for night operations when I knew I’d be pulling a light from my pocket often. I also like the idea of two batteries to have a longer run time. The TK35 is a fantastic light and almost exactly meets the needs I wanted. The two small inconveniences are the bulk of the light and the double buttons, but these are “me” problems, not the light. It’s not small enough to be an all-day EDC like the PD35, but I knew that going in. I also find myself accidently tapping the wrong light often, so I’ve had to lock out the strobe by changing the mode; again, this is a “me” problem and not the light. The light pattern is a bit diffused and it’s not as long a throw as I’d expected, but it’s not an LEP style light, so that’s also no surprise. Overall, I’d definitely buy this light again and I’m sure it’ll be giving me years of service like my other Fenix products.
