Fenix LD35R Rechargeable LED Flashlight

The Fenix LD35R is a versatile flashlight that is equipped with three types of light: white, red and blue light for a wide range of occasions. The main white light is provided by the top-of-the-line Luminus SST-40 diode of the second generation with maximum power 1800 lumens and impressive afterglow up to 337 meters, thanks to it, darkness will never be an obstacle. For flexible illumination of the work area or surroundings, the lamp is equipped with two powerful COB light strips on the sides, which allow either one-sided illumination or 360° area illumination. The flat back hides a strong magnet for attaching to metal surfaces, which you will appreciate when repairing, camping or working in the workshop. For crisis situations, the lamp is equipped with a stainless steel impact rim, which is equipped with ceramic spikes for quick glass breaking and effective self-defense. Convenient and fast one-handed operation is ensured by a combination of a lever and electronic switch, and the power supply is provided by the included 18650 battery with a capacity of 3400 mAh, which is charged directly in the lamp via a waterproof USB-C port. Thanks to its compact size and multifunctionality, the Fenix LD35R will become your reliable assistant for outdoor activities, work and emergency situations.

All parameters of the luminaire (luminous flux, battery operating time, waterproofness, afterglow and impact resistance) are measured in accordance with the ANSI/NEMA FL 1-2009 standard.

Using the Fenix LD35R flashlight

From the factory, there may be a battery inside the lamp insulating cap. Remove it from the battery before first use.

Power on/off and switching between power modes – To turn the light on or off, hold the button for approximately 0.5 seconds. You can switch power modes at any time during operation by briefly pressing the button.

Switching between main light, side colored light and side white light is done with a rotary selector.

Memory for the last set mode – In the main white light mode, the lamp has a memory for three basic modes of 20, 100 and 350 lumens. The side lights always turn on in the lowest mode.

Lock/Unlock – To prevent the lamp from being accidentally switched on, e.g. in luggage, press the button twice quickly (the lamp must be switched off), the lamp will then flash in eco mode, signaling that it is locked. To unlock, press the button twice quickly again and the lamp will switch on in the lowest mode of the mode in which the rotary selector is currently set. Unwanted switching on can also be prevented by enabling the lamp terminal.

Battery replacement – Unscrew the lamp cap and insert the battery with the positive pole facing the head. Then tighten the lamp cap fully again.

Charging – Open the dust cap and plug the USB-C charging cable into the charging port of the flashlight. After charging is complete, seal the dust cap again. The normal charging time for the included ARB-L18-3400 battery is 3 hours with a 5 V/2 A USB power supply. The indicator lights up red during charging. As soon as the battery is fully charged, the green indicator lights up. While charging, the flashlight can be used in any mode except strobe, but depending on the battery charge level, not all modes may be available and the total charging time will be extended.

Battery charge status indication – When the light is off, activate the battery charge level indicator by briefly pressing the button for three seconds. Green indicates sufficient charge (100% – 85%), green flashing 85% – 50%, constant red 50% – 25% and flashing red indicates a critically discharged battery (25% – 1%). If the battery is discharged, the light will gradually start to automatically switch to lower power modes, in the lowest mode the battery charge indicator will flash red to indicate that the battery needs to be recharged or replaced. It only works with original batteries.

Intelligent overheating protection – When the lamp is used at high power levels for a long time, a large amount of heat accumulates. When the lamp reaches a temperature of 60°C or higher, it automatically reduces the output by a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C, the output gradually increases again.

Warning

• Do not disassemble the sealed parts in the lamp head yourself, as this will void the warranty.
• Use only the above-mentioned high-current rechargeable Li-ion 18650 batteries.
• If the protective rubber rings appear damaged after a long period of use, replace them. The rings should also be lubricated to prevent erosion of the rubber. By following these rules, the lamp will be properly protected against water.
• If the light does not switch to higher power modes, flashes or does not light up, it may be for one of the following reasons:
  • The battery is almost empty - recharge it.
  • The contacts inside the lamp are dirty - clean them with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol.
  • The back of the lamp is loose - tighten it.

Warranty

Five-year warranty on the lamp, two years on the battery.
