Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight
Drill through darkness with the compact-yet-powerful Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition flashlight. It features a burst mode that outputs 740 lumens and throws a beam 155m (508 ft.).
- Features a Cree XM-L(T6) neutral white LED that operates in 5 brightness levels to meet your needs whether you're reading a book or hiking through a dark forest
- Flashlight output ranges from 9 lumens on low to 740 on burst mode; to avoid overheating, burst mode will operate for 3 min. before automatically switching to turbo mode
- 2 flashing modes (strobe and SOS) come in handy when you're trying to signal someone or get help; strobe mode outputs 400 lumens and SOS mode outputs 140 lumens
- Press the tail cap switch lightly for momentary on or press it all the way to turn the flashlight on completely
- With the flashlight on, press the switch on the side to adjust the output; PD32 remembers the last output level, so the next time you turn it on it starts where you left off
- Includes a diffuser tip to turn your flashlight into a lantern, reading light or tent light
- 2 CR123A lithium batteries (included) provide 130 hrs. of runtime on low, 27 hrs. on medium, 7 hrs. 15 min. on high, 2 hrs. 40 min. on turbo and 1 hr. on burst
- PD32 can also operate on a single 18650 rechargeable lithium-ion battery (sold separately)
- Regulated output maintains consistent light output over the lifetime of the batteries
- Rugged aircraft-grade aluminum body is designed to resist rolling and has a knurled finish for good grip; use the clip to carry the flashlight on your belt
- PD32 flashlight has an IPX8 water resistance rating for protection against prolonged immersion in water deeper than 1m (3.3 ft.)
- The Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition flashlight comes with two CR123A batteries, a holster, lantern-style diffuser head and spare O-rings
Imported.

Comments about Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight:
I had my eye on this flashlight for awhile. Finally bought it. I use it for outdoor activities and for work. It really lights up an attic, crawlspace, & the woods. i bought a couple of the rechargeable batteries from Fenix to go with it. I've been using the first charged battery for over a month & it's still going strong. Granted, i don't run it full power nonstop, but for normal use i'm impressed with the battery life. I recently took it camping & it lit up the surroundings like a search light. I'm glad i made the purchase

Comments about Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight:
This is a phenomenal light. Like the original PD32 on steroids. The Super Turbo mode lights up an entire room with a flashlight that barely spans the palm of my hand. Durable and reliable--phenomenal price. You can't go wrong with this item.

This Flashlight really works. It can take a beating and is light weight enough to carry with you anywere. It's more than powerfull enough. you just have to shell out a little extra for the spare batteries and charger, but it is worth it.

Comments about Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight:
I love Flashlights! I own MANY and build mine own. I own many by Fenix and have really loved the quality, customer service (had one switch go bad and replaced for free), and the price point is great.
I wanted to buy my father a bright flashlight to use around the barn. So I bought this to review myself first (then decided to keep it and buy another one for him). I use rechargeable 18650 batteries - and highly recommend them. Otherwise battery cost will add up quick. All the top flashlights (tactical) use 18650's. Get some! Look for the news ones rated at 3100 mAh. More mAh equals longer life.
I generally like color tints on the cool side. Cool tints seem to be brighter and shoot further, but wanted to try a neutral tint like this one. XML LED's are the very latest and are incredibly bright! This flashlight has a great beam, but it isn't built to project like a flashlight with a huge reflector. But still does an incredible job and will light up the world around you. This is my new hiking, dog walking, general purpose light. And not bulky, so i can put it in my pocket and doesn't bother me.
I backpack a LOT. I generally have several lights (handheld and headlamps) For handheld, I prefer ones that can shoot a beam out if I hear a noise or need to locate my dog. I will still carry the other flashlights for that purpose, but plan bring this one along as well. Especially for the nice candle diffusor adaptor. SUPER awesome. (I know, I am not ultra-light backpacker when it comes to certain things...like flashlights).
Oh, this will burn through the batteries if you use it on the highest or second highest setting. I haven't timed the run times, but they are probably accurate. Hence the suggestion to get some 3100 or 3400mAh 18650 batteries!

Comments about Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight:
This light is in addition to two other Fenix flashlights I've owned and still use (FD20 & FD22). This light was bought for the higher lumens and the rechargable battery (FENIX 18650) and ability to use CR123 type batteries. It is bright and so far the battery last a good week before needing a re-charge. I bike each morning and evenings 5 miles each way on roads and this light is bright and steady on dark mornings lighting the road ahead. On lighted mornings and evening returns I use the burst mode to be seen. I'm not fond of the SOS burst mode, the FD20 has a steady burst mode I like better. The flashlight mounts into a 'Twofish' flashlight holder.

Comments about Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight:
This is a phenomenal light. I am comparing this to a several year old Fenix PD30R2 , which is been my every day carry to including Duracoat refinishing it. The PD30R2 is excellent, has seen more time at the bottom of the pool & deep ocean water (about 10 feet). It has also seen one high impact strike on the scallops of the bezzle. Just received the new PD32UE and it is a little larger not only in length but in girth than I realized compared to the PD30R2. About an inch larger and about 15-20% larger in diameter this new PD32UE is still very compact for what it can do. I have large hands so it actually fits more fully than the PD30R2. Actuating the modes are different with the PD32UE in that there is a separate button vs triggering the endcap switch and turning the bezzle for high/lo modes. I will say it will take come getting used to and immediately was not thrilled as I can easily see hitting this mode switch just in use. These are little things, which will certainly take time to get used to compared to the PD30R2 but by no means is a show stopper. Now for what most buy this light for - the LIGHT. The old PD30R2 in its highest mode produces a 235lumens of light which was really excellent, still it, compared to the high (400) mode of the PD32UE the brightness actually looks identical. What is quite different is the beam/dispersion pattern. The PD32UE covers a MUCH larger area. What really sets it apart from the old one is its higest mode, capable of 3 minute bursts from what I have read which hopefully it can sustain that and maybe even longer. The 740 mode on this new light makes the old high mode of the PD32R2 look like the difference between low & high beams on a car. Its quite noticable, again with a MUCH larger pattern. Whats also excellent is that this is an inclusive ' kit ' which includes a set of CR123A batteries and a diffusing tip (which will actually end up finding its way on the old PD32R2). As of this writing (30minutes after testing) I still have a blind spot in my vision from looking directly at the diffusor tip with the new lamp on 740mode. Blinding really doenst descibe this. While it truely will light up an entire level of huge room it doesnt really do you any good unless you shade it as it will literally blind you. Still an excellent function but it you were to use it you would have to place your hand in front the entire time and carry it light a candle. The low modes, which would sustain quite a long time with a low volume - non blinding light, would be excellent during periods of power outage in the home. This new light is taking place of my everyday carry PD30R2. I have tested the new light in water (just a glass, not a pool or ocean - yet), and it ran without issue. I gave it 4 vs 5 stars only because of the differing modes of operation & that I can see the mode button being easily hit unintentionally changing modes. Would have preferred them to keep the operating method identical tot he PD30R2. I have every expectation that this light will hold up and last as well the earlier model, I would recommend.

Comments about Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight:
This thing is just insane! I can't believe the amount of light this puts out compared to the standard PD32. The neutral tint is the main reason why I purchased this; no more bluish "cool white" junk. The hotspot is also a huge selling point - nice and big so you don't get "tunnel vision".
The usual Fenix quality is present so I have no fears about it failing. The clip is nice and tight but not too tight.
Great mode spacing! I use the high and turbo modes often. Burst is nice when you need more throw but it's not meant to be used nonstop.
I'm using an EagleTac 3,400mah 18650 battery which complements this light well. Impressive runtime!

Works as promised! I like the ability to adjust the brightness of the beam!
The strobe function is a bonus. It would be nice if a spare bulb was included, but other than that this little flashlight puts out some serious lumens!

Comments about Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight:
For it being as small as it is, it packs a whole lot of light. When you point it at whatever it is, it illuminates the object and all the surroundings which i like. The setting of different outputs is great and strobe works great. I turned the flashlight on in a large living room and it lit the whole room up. I highly recommend it to anyone.

Comments about Fenix PD32 Ultimate Edition Flashlight:
I am a Firefighter and I use this flashlight while on duty. This is a great, durable flashlight that is very dependable and bright. I have actually used this to break a couple car windows with no problem. Its great that this flashlight is also "waterproof" (Up to 2m) and still shines bright. I am very satisfied with this flashlight. It also works well even frozen and low temps.
