Not every flashlight is used by us for hobby purposes. For this reason, the Fenix brand has created the WH line, combining light sources designed for intensive use in typically professional applications. The use of a body modeled from polycarbonate guarantees us extreme resistance to environmental conditions - both corrosion and potential damage caused by mechanical trauma. The dual main diode guarantees us an adequate supply of flux power, by the way, adapting its shape to specific applications, while the automatic switching system will allow us to control the device without touching its body.
Fenix WH23R headlamp offers the user:- A rugged construction based on extremely durable polycarbonate
- Two LEDs equipped with different optical systems for different form of flux
- 3 flux power modes for each diode and a Turbo mode combining their operation
- Maximum runtime of 150 h and fast charging of about 1.5 h
- Integrated lithium-ion battery rechargeable via USB-C port
- Wide illumination angle and 60-degree adjustable head tilt
- Extremely effective adaptation for use with protective gloves
- Auto-on system for contact-free operation of the flashlight
- Adjustable intensity with a dial that can be easily felt even when wearing gloves
- Very low weight for comfort during prolonged use
- IP66 standard waterproofing to guarantee protection from rain and dust
- Breathable, adjustable headband allowing comfortable use also on the scalp
TheFenix WH23R headlamp was created to provide comprehensive illumination during various types of work. Therefore, the manufacturer used here two diodes equipped with different optical systems - a smooth reflector that provides a focused beam that reaches a long distance, and an orange peel reflector that effectively and evenly illuminates the immediate surroundings. Both LEDs have three power modes - low, medium and high. To take advantage of the flashlight's maximum power, it is also equipped with an additional Turbo mode combining the operation of both LEDs.
Fenix WH23R headlamp - a handy light source designed for professional applications
Key features of the flashlight also include facilities that allow comfortable operation with gloves. The device is activated using a motion sensor, so switching on is done without searching for a button on the body - we can easily turn it on even when our hands are busy with tools. The selection of light modes is done using a large textured knob, which will allow us to operate it easily with thick gloves or a wet or dirty hand.
The flashlight's head is equipped with a 60-degree adjustable angle. This, combined with an exceptionally wide angle of illumination, will allow us to work comfortably regardless of the position we are in. The design of the flashlight's body is based on extremely durable, yet very lightweight polycarbonate. This guarantees us high resistance to falls and impacts, as well as a comfortably low weight allowing us to use the flashlight comfortably for many hours. This is also helped by a modern, ventilated headband, which guarantees effective wicking of moisture during warmer days.
