Handy and durable

The flashlight's tube is made of anodized aerospace aluminum A6061-T6, which guarantees high resistance to damage and robustness of construction. Thanks to the cross-moleting of the surface, the flashlight does not slip from the hand, and its grip is well felt.

The flashlight measures only 64 mm, with the battery it weighs about 78 g, so it can constantly accompany us in our daily activities.The angle of the light beam can be easily adjusted up to 180° by rotating the body in the polymer band clamp. Unlike traditional headlamps, the Fenix HM50R V2.0 can be used as a traditional angle flashlight when detached from the mount. The manufacturer also did not forget about a functional clip (removable) that allows you to carry the flashlight on a belt, backpack or pocket.

Two colors of light

The main light source is a new generation Cree XP-G3 S4 LED, emitting a maximum light output of 700 lumens at a distance of 115 m! Neutral light color reduces eye fatigue, provides more natural color rendering and better visibility of details. The flashlight has an additional red light (2 modes), which is perfect for night activities, because unlike white light it does not blind the user, provides a smooth adaptation of the eyes to see in the dark, makes it easier to read maps and reduces our visibility. The flashlight uses a modified collimating lens, which makes the light beam evenly dispersed and efficiently illuminates the center and sides of the scene in front of us.

6 operating modes

The user has 4 modes of white light and 2 modes of red light. All operation of the Fenix HM50R, i.e. turning on, turning off and changing modes, is done with a large silicone button located on the top of the flashlight. This guarantees high comfort of use and allows to operate the flashlight also with gloves.

Convenient charging

A major innovation is the ability to charge the battery via a USB-C port, which allows the ARB-L16-700P battery (included) to be charged in just 1.5 hours. During outdoor activities, it's a good idea to monitor the status of the battery, which is why the HM50R flashlight features a low-energy warning system and a simple LED indicator that lets the user know its condition. The LED in the top switch indicates the battery level for 3 seconds after activating the flashlight.

Battery level indications:

• constant green light: 100-80%,
• flashing green light: 80-50%,
• steady red light: 50-20%,
• flashing red light: 20-0%.

Additional functions

When transporting, the flashlight can be locked, going into the so-called lock mode. This protects against accidental activation of the light and uncontrolled depletion of the battery. The flashlight also remembers the last used brightness level. When turned on again, the flashlight automatically activates in this mode (memory function).

Safety features

The flashlight features a high IP68 rating, which means it is resistant to dust, dust, heavy rain and even full immersion in water (2 m) for 30 minutes. Therefore, the HM50R V2.0 can be successfully used in all weather conditions, for virtually any physical activity. The manufacturer also did not forget to include protection against overheating and reverse polarity, as well as a controller with digital current regulation.

Reflective headband

Stable carrying of the flashlight on the head is ensured by an upgraded rubber band, which wicks away sweat and is equipped with reflective inserts to increase our visibility and safety when moving at night on the road or trail.

Light performance was tested using the 16340 ARB-L16-700P battery.
