Fenix PD36R - professional tactical flashlights for soldiers and police officers
The body of the Fenix PD36R Pro flashlight is made of hardened aluminum, subjected to the HA-III hard anodizing process, which makes the flashlight's barrel and head resistant to scratches, abrasion and mechanical damage. The milling of the body and its geometric profile prevent the flashlight from slipping from the hand, and provide excellent grip. The PD36R PRO also uses a steel clip that allows the flashlight to be quickly attached to a body armor and easily retrieved. The detachable clip also prevents the flashlight from rolling off an inclined surface. The flashlight has a new control system, now consisting of two rear buttons with different shapes and functionality.
The light source is a new-generation LUMINUS SST70 LED, emitting a maximum light output of 2800 lumens at a distance of as much as 380 meters. The cool-neutral light color reduces eye fatigue, provides more natural color rendering and better visibility of details. The flashlight uses anti-reflective glass with high light transmission and a smooth reflector, providing a concentrated light output with a strongly illuminated center of the scene. This design results in a concentrated light stream that can illuminate objects up to 450 meters away.
The user has 6 light modes at his disposal: turbo, high, medium, low, eco and strobe, thus allowing to customize the lighting. It is worth noting that the total runtime of the flashlight in turbo 2800 lumens mode is nearly 3.5 hours!
The flashlight is powered by a 21700 type cell with a powerful capacity of as much as 5000 mAh! The battery used has twice the capacity of a standard 18650 cell, which obviously translates into huge performance and impressive runtime.
The PD36R Pro has a built-in USB-C charging port, allowing the cell to charge very quickly. Just a 10-minute charge provides as much as 5 hours of 150 lumens! The USB-C port also allows you to charge the flashlight from a portable power-bank, greatly increasing the mobility and capabilities of the Fenix PD36R Pro. The socket is protected from moisture, water and dust by a rubber plug. Thanks to the function of the battery level indicator (LED in the body) and low voltage warning, we can control the operation of the flashlight and manage the remaining power supply. When the flashlight is turned on, the indicator informs us about the battery status for 3 seconds.
Battery level indications:
- Solid green LED: 100-85%,
- flashing green LED: 85-50%,
- glowing red LED: 50-25%,
- flashing red LED: 25-1%.
The PD36R Pro flashlight has two rear switches: a round one and a smaller oval one for changing modes. The main button activates momentary light and turns on continuous illumination. The smaller oval button is responsible for changing the brightness of the light and activating strobe. Thanks to the memory function, when the flashlight is next activated, the last used light mode is automatically selected. The Fenix PD36 TAC uses APF (Advanced Transmision Technology), which reduces the susceptibility of electronics to interference.
The flashlight employs several protection systems, including reverse polarity protection, low voltage warning and "intelligent protection" against overheating, which reduces the brightness of the light to cool down when heated to 60°C. A high IP68 rating makes the flashlight resistant to total immersion in water (30 minutes at a depth of 2 meters), dust and dirt, and falling.
Fenix PD36R PRo is a professional tactical flashlight that combines excellent light performance, long runtime and functionality into one reliable tool with a compact size.
The parameters shown were obtained under laboratory conditions. Fenix ARB-L21 5000 mAh battery was used during testing.
