FENIX PD35 TAC (01) PDF Document

The FENIX PD35 TAC (Tactical Edition) is a pocket-sized flashlight with high performance, focusing on tactical employment. It is less than 14cm long, features up to 1000 lumen output, and has a throwing distance of 200 meters. It offers two main modes: Outdoor Mode with 6 output modes (including strobe) and a simplified, fast-selection Tactical Mode.

Key features include:

• Uses Cree XP-L (V5) LED with a lifespan of 50,000 hours

• Powered by one 18650 rechargeable Li-ion battery or two 3V CR123A Lithium batteries

• Dimensions: 137mm (length) x 25.4mm (diameter)

• 89-gram weight (excluding battery)

• Tactical tail switch with momentary-on function

• Stainless side switch to select output mode under Outdoor mode

• Side switch is only capable of mode changing under Tactical mode

• Digitally regulated output maintains constant brightness

• Low-voltage reminder indicates when battery replacement is needed

• Reverse polarity protection to protect from improper battery installation

• Anti-roll, slip-resistant body design

• Made of durable aircraft-grade aluminum

• Premium type III hard-anodized anti-abrasive finish

• Toughened ultra-clear glass lens with anti-reflective coating

To replace the battery, unscrew the tail cap. Insert the batteries with the anode side (+) toward the light’s head. Once the battery is inserted, screw the tail cap back on.

The following parameters were lab-tested using a Fenix ARB-L2-3400/3400mAh 18650 rechargeable Li-ion battery and may vary between flashlights, batteries, and environments.

*Due to the protective setup of automatically turning to High from Turbo after working 5 minutes, the runtime of the Turbo brightness level is the accumulated time.

Warning: Please do not mix batteries of different brands, sizes, capacities, or types. Doing so may cause damage to the flashlight or the batteries being used.

*18650/16340 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Quality batteries with circuit protection will reduce the potential for combustion or explosion but cell damage or short circuiting are potential risks the user assumes.

When the light is on, long press on the side switch for 3 seconds until the LED flashes twice at Low output. This will cycle the flashlight through Tactical Mode → Outdoor Mode.

ON/OFF

Fully press the tail switch to turn on the light. Press it once again to turn it off.

Output Selection

Slightly click the tail switch to turn the light on temporarily; release it and the light will go out. Click the tail switch again to cycle through Turbo → Strobe → Low. To select an output mode, continue to fully press on the tail switch after selecting the needed mode, and the light will stay on in that mode.

Notice:

1. In this mode, Turbo mode is the default when the light is first turned on.

2. In this mode, the side switch only works for switching between Tactical and Outdoor modes.

ON/OFF

Slightly click the tail switch to turn the light on temporarily; release it and the light will go out. Fully press on the tail switch to turn on the light constantly, and press once again to turn it off.

Output Selection

With the light on, single-click the side switch to cycle through Eco → Low → Mid → High → Turbo.

Strobe Mode

With the light on, long press the side switch for 1 second to enter Strobe mode. Click the side switch again to turn back to the general mode.

Notice:

1. In this mode, the flashlight memorizes the last used output mode. The next time you turn it on, it will recall that previously used output.

2. Turbo Mode will work within the LED tolerance in accordance with battery capacity. If a Fenix ARB-L2-3400 18650 rechargeable Li-ion battery is not used, the brightness may gradually decrease. Due to the protective setup, the light automatically turns to High from Turbo after working for 5 minutes. The runtime for the Turbo brightness level is the accumulated time.

• Do not disassemble the sealed head, as this may cause damage to the light and will void the warranty.

• Use a battery of high quality. Remove the battery if you do not plan to use the light for a long time, as it can be damaged by electrolyte leakage or battery explosion.

• To avoid accidental activation during storage or transport, make use of the switch locking function according to switch lock and unlock operation directives.

• Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the ring with an approved spare.

• Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the light’s performance.

When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the flashlight is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level. When this happens in the Low output mode, the flashlight will blink three times every five minutes to remind you to replace the battery.

Dirty contacts may cause these performance issues. There are two common reasons:

Reason A: The batteries need replacing.

Solution: Replace the batteries. Please confirm the correct installation of the anode (+) and cathode (-).

Reason B: The threads, PCB board contact, or other contacts are dirty.

Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.

The flashlight is a high-intensity lighting device capable of causing eye damage to the user or others. Avoid shining the light directly into anyone’s eyes.
