LED flashlight Fenix ​​HT18R

Fenix​​HT18R is an evolution of the popular HT18 spotlight, which after modernization received an impressive light output of up to 2800 lumens, allowing you to illuminate objects even further than 1100 m. The kit includes 2 color filters to change the light color.

The most important changes in the HT18R flashlight compared to the HT18:

luminous flux increased to 2800 lumens
more efficient Luminus SFT70 diode with increased luminous flux density
total range up to 1100 m
built-in USB-C fast charging port
convenient one-handed operation using two rear buttons
additional emergency SOS light mode
new, more efficient power supply in the form of the ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 battery
The flashlight tube is made of anodized A6061-T HA-III aluminum, which guarantees high damage resistance and a sturdy construction. Thanks to the transverse surface carving, the flashlight fits firmly in the hand, and its grip is easily felt - even when wearing gloves. The optical system is protected by a steel crown, which allows you to safely place the flashlight level. Despite the wide, 68 mm head, the spotlight is comfortable and convenient to use. The 188 mm long flashlight with a 21700 type battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh weighs only 362 g, which is a relatively small mass for a spotlight with such impressive capabilities. Two springs are used in the battery compartment, which guarantee reliability and stability of operation when hunting or using in difficult conditions

The light source is a new generation Luminus SFT70 diode, generating a maximum luminous flux of 2800 lumens. It emits a cold white color of 6500 K, which is perfect for long-range flashlights. The human eye perceives “cold light” as stronger, so it is best suited for illuminating the area and distant objects. The capabilities of the flashlight are significantly increased by the included colored filters, which are placed on the head.

The red filter is perfect for night operations because, unlike white light, the red stream does not dazzle the user, ensures smooth eye adaptation to see in the dark, makes it easier to read maps and makes us less visible to animals and other people. The green filter is a proven solution for hunters because most animals do not react to green light, making it easier to get close and shoot accurately.

The flashlight uses anti-reflective glass with high light transmission and a smooth SMO reflector. This design perfectly concentrates the light beam, which translates into an impressive range of up to 1100 m. As a result, the Fenix ​​​​​​HT18R flashlight will easily illuminate the forest wall, mountain slope, gorge and other distant places that we want to see.

Fenix ​​​​- hunting flashlights for hunting
The user has 4 levels of constant light brightness: turbo, high, medium, low and 2 flash modes: strobe and SOS. Fenix ​​​​​​HT18R has a convenient interface, controlled with one hand using 2 rear buttons.

A large, round tactical button is used to turn the light on and off and to activate the momentary light. A smaller button with an oval profile is responsible for changing the brightness levels of the modes and activates the 2 aforementioned flash modes. Thanks to the memory function, the next time the flashlight is turned on, the last used light mode is automatically selected (except for strobe and SOS). This function makes the HT18R flashlight easy to use and extremely convenient, making it perfect for hunting, uniformed services and exploration.

Fenix​​HT18R - long-range flashlight with 2800 lumens

The flashlight is powered by an ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 21700 battery with a capacity of up to 5000 mAh! V2.0 The battery used is twice as large as a standard 18650 cell, which affects efficiency and long operating time. In the maximum 2800 lumen mode, the flashlight operates for up to 100 minutes (total operating time). The functionality and mobility of the flashlight are significantly increased by the built-in USB-C charging port, which allows you to quickly charge the battery without removing it from the flashlight, for example, using a power bank or other standard power sources. Access to the charging port is achieved by removing the rubber cover, which effectively protects the port from moisture, dust and dirt. Thanks to the battery level indicator function (diode on the housing) and low voltage warning, we can conveniently check the energy level in the flashlight. When the flashlight is turned on, the indicator informs us about the battery charge level for 3 seconds.

Battery level indication:

• constant green light: 100-85%,
• flashing green light: 85-50%
• constant red light: 50-25%,
• red light flashing: 25-1%.

Additional features

The flashlight remembers the last brightness level used. When you turn it on again, the flashlight automatically turns on in this mode (memory function). The flashlight has a high IP68 protection class, so it is resistant to dust, dust, complete immersion in water to a depth of 2 m and falling from a height of 1 m. The manufacturer also has protection against overheating and reverse polarity, as well as a controller with digital current regulation.

The light parameters were tested using ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 batteries.
