2.  Tactical and Duty modes for flexibly needed choice and operation.

3.  Hidden USB Type-C charging port.

Q2. What kind of LEDs are used in TK20R UE? Does Fenix offer to replace LED?

A: A Luminus SST70 LED with a lifespan of 50,000 hours. 

Fenix does not provide LED replacement services for the time being, and users are not recommended to replace the LEDs independently, which may affect product performance and cause product damage.

Q3. What is the color temperature of TK20R UE?

A: Around 6500K.

Q4. What is the operating voltage of TK20R UE?

A: The operating voltage is 3.0 V. The operating current is 4.2 A.

Q5.Is TK20R UE rechargeable? How long is the charging time? 

A: Loosen the light head counterclockwise to reveal the USB Type-C charging port and the indicator. The indicator will display red while charging and will turn green when fully charged. Once charging is completed, be sure to tighten the light head to maintain the dustproof and waterproof ability. The normal charging time is approximately 4 hours from fully depleted to fully charged(The adapter needs to support 5V/2A or above).

Q6. How to prevent accidentally activate the TK20R UE?

A: Lock: In any state, rotate the FlexiSensa Control toggle switch to OFF/Lock mode to turn off the light.

Unlock: With the light switched on, rotate the FlexiSensa Control toggle switch to Tactical mode or Duty mode to enter the previously used output.

Q7. Why does the TK20R UE downshift to a lower mode after being used for a while and the higher mode cannot be selected?

A: There are two reasons: 

1. Intelligent Overheat Protection

The flashlight will accumulate a lot of heat when used at relatively high output levels for extended periods. When the flashlight reaches a temperature of 60°C or above, the lamp will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. 

2. Low-voltage Warning

When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the flashlight is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Low output is reached. 

Q8. Why does the TK20R UE happen to flicker?

A: The reasons that may cause the flashlight to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate:

A: Poor battery level.

Solution: Recharge or replace the battery (Ensure battery is inserted according to the manufacturer’s specifications).

B: The contact point or contact of the battery or flashlight is dirty. 

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

If the above methods don't work, please contact the distributor.

Note: the above specifications are from the results produced by Fenix through its laboratory testing using the Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 battery, under the temperature of 21±3°C and humidity of 50% - 80%. The true performance of this product may vary according to different working environments and the actual battery used. *The Turbo output is measured in total of runtime including output at reduced levels due to temperature or protection mechanism in the design.

With the light switched on, rotate the FlexiSensa Control switch to Tactical mode or Duty mode to unlock the light and enter the previously used output.

Intelligent Memory Circuit

In Tactical or Duty mode, the light memorizes the last selected output including Strobe. When turned on again the previously used output will be recalled.

Intelligent Overheat Protection

The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used on Turbo output levels for extended periods. When the light reaches a temperature of 60°C or above, the light will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C, it will then allow the user for the reselection of Turbo mode.

Battery Specifications

• Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 (21700, 3.6V): Recommended.
• Fenix ARB-L21-5000U (21700, 3.6V): Recommended.

It is prohibited to use 18650, 16340, or CR123A batteries. 21700 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Only use quality batteries with circuit protection to reduce the potential for combustion or explosion; cell damage or short circuiting are potential risks the user assumes.

Battery Replacement: unscrew the light tail and insert the battery with the anode side (+) towards the light head, then screw the light tail back on.

Charging

• Loosen the light head counterclockwise to reveal the USB Type-C charging port and plug the USB A socket of the charging cable into an appropriate A/C powered USB plug/outlet, then connect the USB Type-C socket of the charging cable to the light.
• The indicator will display red while charging and will turn green when fully charged.
• Once charging is completed, be sure to tighten the light head to maintain the dustproof and waterproof ability.

Note: when charging fails or the battery is reversely connected, the battery indicator will flash red to remind the user to check the battery. The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 is approximately 3.5 hours from depletion to full charging. Recharge a stored light every four months to maintain the optimum performance of the battery. The light is unavailable while charging. This only works with Fenix ARB-L21 series rechargeable battery.

Battery Level Indication

Each time the light is turned on, the indicator (unscrew the light head to see) will indicate the battery level and will last for 3 seconds.

• Green light on: saturated 100% - 85%.
• Green light flashes: sufficient 85% - 50%.
• Red light on: poor 50% - 25%.
• Red light flashes: critical 25% - 1%.

Note: this only works with Fenix ARB-L21 series rechargeable battery.

Low-Voltage Warning

When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the flashlight is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Low output is reached. When this happens in Low output, the light blinks 3 times every 5 minutes to remind you to timely recharge or replace the battery. Note: this only works with Fenix ARB-L21 series rechargeable battery.

Usage and Maintenance

• Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the lamp and will void the warranty.
