 Nice LED flashlight!Aug 28, 2010
I got this for a daily carry flashlight. It's small and light, not a burden to pack around at all. The clip is strong, as is the lanyard. It'd be nice if you could set the light level with a switch instead of having to click through them with the power button, but that's no biggie at all. There's even an SOS blinker. For the $$ this is a nice little light.

Great Durable Small Light BUT...Aug 12, 2010
I have carried this light nearly every day in the 5 months that I have owed it.
This is a small flashlight (can fit comfortably in a pocket) that is well built. Honestly I nearly didn't buy it because of the cost but after reading the reviews I took a chance. I'm glad I did. This light had been dropped quite a few times onto hard surfaces and it has not affected operation in any way. Included is a very sturdy clip that securely clips the light to a shirt pocket.
The one downside is that the battery life could be better. I tend to use the light on HIGH most of the time because of the fantastic light output (when you need to see you need to SEE!) and the battery sometimes dies on me. The way the current regulation works is that the light DOES NOT get dimmer until the battery is dead, so what happens is that you have light then suddenly no light (or flickering light) when the battery is dead. I am using a quality rechargeable battery (Sanyo Eneloop) so the battery is not the problem. This is probably because the flashlight uses a SINGLE "AA" battery (which is why it's so small).
Also I wish the partially untwisted lens cap position would be the "medium" brightness setting instead of "low". That way I could extend battery life. I find it difficult to set the light to "medium" brightness because the lens cap must be partially untwisted (doing this sets "low" brightness) and then the button pressed once or twice to gradually increase brightness above "low". The problem is when you click the button the light turns off for a short time making it hard to determine what brightness setting you are on (unless you keep track of how many times you press the button). I find the low brightness setting useless because it doesn't output sufficient light.
Still, it's a good small flashlight despite these flaws and the fact that it uses a standard AA makes it better than some of the other Fenix models that use "weird" batteries (like CR123A). I also wouldn't bother with any LED flashlight that uses AAA batteries because AA batteries have a higher AmpHour capacity rating (i.e. AA last longer than AAAs)
A slightly cheaper version of this light that gets rid of the strobe mode (which I never use) and has a brighter "low" setting is the Fenix L1T 2 Level High Performance Cree LED Flashlight
This one is slightly different but still uses 1 AA (no pocket clip though)

 great flashlight for the money!Aug 08, 2010
Things that I like about this light:
1) the size : it fits my hand quite nicely. and it can easily go in my pocket
2) the output of this light is amazing. particularly amazed by the strobe mode
3) it uses only an AA battery : its much more convenient that looking for 123As when you're out on a trip.
4) its extremely durable : you know it'll work when you need it
5) the price : all this for about $50
great buy!

I carry this with me constantly ...Jul 11, 2010
If you are like me, once or twice every day, you will come across a time where a flashlight would be really convenient ..? Well, this light is bright enough for the VAST majority of daily chores you might come across. I'd pair it with a good rechargeable AA battery (like a 2400mah or so), because you will find yourself "making" uses for it nearly every day. This is a great flashlight that produces an amazing amount of light for it's size!

Will not leave home without it.Jun 21, 2010
I work nights and this little flashlight has proven itself to me many times over. From helping full 18 wheelers unload in the middle of blackouts to finding your friends dropped wallet in a pitch black parking lot, to finding that right box in the storage attic, and even checking for fuel leaks in the darkness of the night has been effortless, as long as lighting goes. Guys lugging big lights - the types of lights that you hang on your shoulder with a strap - have been very envious of my little Fenix. Very envious indeed. And when I am done, I do not have to leave or store my light to anywhere, just plop it back to its little holster, that sits very conveniently on my belt. It sits there right next to my phone holder, do not even know it is there until you need it. My light holster came a little too tight to start with, but have not dropped the light from it a single time yet either.
Operating the different modes is not really that difficult. Much easier than any modern cell phone if you asked me. Just read the little instruction paper that comes with the light, pretty straight forward stuff there. I usually keep mine on the full mode while holstered, and only twist the cap to lower power modes if I think I need to use the light for longer or only need to see something close by. Then tap the end button to switch those lower modes if I am reading something close enough, that does not need the light to be so bright as to blind myself with it. Strobe only works with the high settings, sos mode with low settings. I do not see any major confuzzlements there. If you can read, you can operate the light.
And no more running out of them silly expensive cr123 batteries that you can not find from anywhere in the middle of the night anyways should you run out, especially in the middle of one of those blackouts that last more than a couple of hours... but you can get AA's from pretty much anywhere and they are cheap and easy to stock.
The first time you see loads of people working with flaslights, and the one little thing that fits in your fist just right and just provides better light beams than most of them all others, you will notice. Several people I work with have experienced this, and some of them are now happy owners of these little Fenix flashlights too. Just bought another one as a present to a guy who helped me fix something... and used my little Fenix to do it. I offered to compensate him for his troubles, but he wanted my flashlight instead. I can bet this was not the first flashlight this guy ever saw. So I went and bought him one. Good deal both ways.
