New Flashlight
I got a new flashlight for Christmas and thought I would share it with you. This is the 2nd Fenix light I got as a gift and I love it. The guys over at www.brightguy.com carry the line and have the best prices around, check them out. This light is small but carries a big punch, I carry it in my front pocket and barely know it's there.
The Fenix LD01 Q5 LED flashlight is a perfect personal flashlight. Measuring just under 3" long the Fenix LD01 easily fits in your pocket and can be attached to your keychain. It's the flashlight you'll reach for time and again. With 3 brightness levels and up to 80 lumens in high, you can select the right amount of light for any task.
Operation of new Fenix LD01 with Cree Q5 LED:
Turn the head of the flashlight clockwise for on. A counter clockwise turn will then switch it off. To switch between brightness levels, turn the flashlight on then off. Within 1.5 seconds after being turned off, twist the head on again and it will be switched to the next brightness level. Sequence of output levels: Medium > Low > High.
