Fenix LR40R powerful LED-flashlight, 12000 lumens

The Fenix LR40R LED flashlight is extremely powerful. You can combine the broad light beam with the spotlight function and, as such, you have a maximum light output of 12000 lumens and a beam distance of 773 meters. The result is a massive light beam which, in combination with its compact size, is perfect for search ops, rescue missions, while discovering caves and during many other outdoor activities.

Unique features of the Fenix LR40R

This Fenix LR40R is properly constructed and the most powerful flashlight so far in the successful Fenix history. The LR40R has a robust look, feels decent, but is also remarkably compact for a flashlight with so much power. The two side switches are made from stainless steel. With the left side switch you can control the broad light beam (turbo, high II, high I, medium, low), stroboscope mode and sos mode, and with the right side switch you can control the spotlight (high, medium, low and eco). Do you immediately want to switch to the stroboscope mode? Hold the left switch down a little longer. The flashlight also has an ultra-clear glass with an anti-reflection coating for perfect visibility in the dark.

The Fenix LR40R is enhanced with two different LED lights. The broad beam contains 18 Cree XP-G3-S4 LED lights. The spotlight mode contains 1 Cree XP-L-HI V3 LED light. The flashlight works with the included Fenix ARB-L37-12000 rechargeable Li-ion battery. The battery has a capacity of 12000mAh and works up to 92 hours / 4 days. In case of an emergency you can also place one to four 18650 batteries in the flashlight.

Fenix LR40R: additional features

This flashlight has one usb-c-port. As such you can easily charge the battery in the flashlight with the help of the included USB cable. In only 3 hours and 30 minutes the LR40R will be fully charged. You can also use the discharge function for the flashlight to function as a power bank. Thanks to the battery indicator you know the exact status of the battery.

The Fenix LR40R has a lock-out function. As such you prevent the light from activating during transport or while storing it. To lock the light you first turn it off and press down the two switches at the same time for about three seconds. To unlock the light you do the same thing: press both switches at the same time for about three seconds. Afterwards you can once again use the light.

If you use the high or turbo mode for a longer period of time the light will start to heat up. When the light reaches a temperature of 65°C or higher the light will automatically reduce the amount of lumen to also reduce the temperature. As soon as the temperature drops you can switch back to turbo mode.
