Fenix PD36R USB-C Rechargeable Tactical LED Flashlight - 1600 Lumens - Includes 1 x 5000mAh 21700
Fenix PD36R
USB Type-C Rechargeable Tactical Flashlight
Surely an instant classic, the Fenix PD36R is a compact, tactical LED flashlight with 1600 Lumens of pure lighting power. Focused through a powerful reflector, this light can reach beam distances of up to 928 feet, a great choice for long-range outdoor work. The PD36R represents the latest in high-quality flashlight design, featuring USB Type-C fast charging that has the light powered up incredibly fast. The body of the light is even more compact than the preceding PD series, measuring just 5.35 Inches making it great for everyday carry. Speaking of carry, the included two-way pocket clip makes it just that much easier to clip to clothing or equipment whichever way you want.
Switch It Up
The Fenix PD36R makes the switch from EDC to tactical action in the blink of an eye with its dual switch system. The classic rear tactical switch will be familiar to users with military or law enforcement experience, with a solid clicky action that has the option of being used as a momentary-on switch. The convenient side switch, on the other hand, gives the light an easy to use way of switching brightness modes and includes a distinct battery level indicator that lets users know when the battery is nearly depleted. Once that battery is depleted, the included USB-C cable will have the PD36R up and running in just 10 minutes.

It uses a 21700 battery, which I won't say is "non-standard", but is very different than the 16 or so 18650 Li-Ion batteries and two chargers that I own. This means, obviously, that your existing 18650 charger almost definitely won't charge a 21700 battery.
What's most extraordinary about the PD36R is it's high power 1600 Lumen output. I've carried 1000 Luman flashlights for a long time, and 1000 Lumens is *bright*, but 1600 Lumens is STUPID BRIGHT! You best not catch yourself in a mirror when you fire up this beast or you'll go blind.
The only minor nit about this tactical flashlight is that the base is not flat, which means you can't stand it on end and use it as a makeshift lantern. All my Nitecore flashlights stand on their tail, which I never missed until it was gone (gave my old one to my grandson). It's minor, but noteworthy.
Overall, the Fenix PD36R was an excellent purchase. Highly recommended.

I debated between buying the PD36R and the FD30 (900 Lumens but focusable) and decided to go with the PD36R.
I also intend to use it as a bicycle headlight when the days get shorter. 850 Lumens continuous is pretty good.
