I must say I like the HP 10 most of all. Having both hands free to do whatever is a huge advantage,especially at night. Having the choice between 4 different brightness levels and a strobe mode puts this light in a class by itself, very nice.
Hey John, I have to agree. Thanks for stopping by!
I have a Fenix TK30 and it is the brightest lightsaber I have ever seen (630 lumens!). It is amazing, and I can use a lower intensity level to conserve battery when I don’t need to signal the space shuttle…
Hi Kurt! Thanks for stopping by. Yeah, the TK30 looks killer, that one has been on my list. Thanks again for chiming in. Cheers, Mike
It appears they have discontinued it, so you may want to get one before supplies dry up…
I bought a LDO1 after reading reviews about it because I wanted a small bright flashlight. A friend of mine bought one shortly after I got mine because he was impressed with how bright it was. We both have the same issues with it. When you turn it on it is in the medium output, then it goes to high at the next setting, then to low. Why not start at low like normal? 2nd issue we had was the lanyard holes wore very quickly. 3rd issue neither of our flashlights lasted very long (they don’t take drops very well) mine lasted through roughly 12 drops to concrete floor from waist high, my friends only lasted 4 drops from the same height. Fenix wasn’t real responsive when we inquired about replacements, and at $40.00 for that little light I’m not about to run out and buy another.
Hi David…sorry to hear of your troubles with the LD01…I have two myself and have not had a problem. They are very powerful little flashlights, even though they are a bit expensive, I think they’re work it. Very bright, waterproof, long lasting, high quality materials…nice ultra-compact light source. That’s too bad you’ve had problems getting a hold of Fenix. BTW, why are you dropping it so often?
I have many tactical flashlights by Fenix, Nitecore, and other well known manufacturers. But, my favorite “budget” tactical flashlight is the TaoTronics ThorLite TT-TF02. The build quality is excellent and at 500 lumens it is definitely bright. Many lower priced lights “boost” their lumens ratings – but I compared it to my Nitecore SRT-7 at 500 lumens and they were equally bright.
Hey Mike…thanks for stopping by and sharing!
I every time spent my half an hour to read this web site’s articles or reviews everyday along with a mug of coffee.
Mike, Yes you are right. I am using Fenix pd35 from last 3 years without any problems. I have more than 10 types Fenix brand flashlight and all are working perfectly without any problems. I am writing reviews on my blog https://tacticalflashlightguide.com/fenix/. It will be great if you get time to check my website.
Hey Alex, glad you enjoy. I actually just had one fail that I had to replace. Another one I could not get the battery out, but overall, they have been great flashlights over the years.
