I just bought the new version PD32R. Hidden gem ! 135mm, 136 grammes battery included, 1400 lumens in turbo and strobe, silent tail switch ! Perfect for self defense. And no proprietary batteries like nitecore. I was hesitating with the PD36R pro but the PD32R is smaller lighter, no rubber band for the usb type c and enough power ! Great product
This looks very good; but I am puzzled by how the battery is not included. An included battery is the best choice a manufacturer can make; as such, it is reassuring, beside convenient, to get everything you need in one package. What led to such a decision, not to include a battery?
Price. Many of our customers have multiple flashlights and already have batteries. However there is a new version, the PD32R, that just launched that is essentially the same light with a built-in charging port and includes a 3400mAh battery. www.fenixlighting.com/products/fenix-pd32r-rechargeable-flashlight
@@hntrains2 hey take a look at this candela comparison for best thrower. pd36r Version 2 - 39,240 cd pd32 Version 2 - 39,000 cd pd36r Pro - 36,600 cd pd35r - 31,200 cd pd32r - 29,588 cd PD36r Version 1 - 19,977 cd
Two completely different flashlights, so there is no way to really make a direct comparison. If you want a very small flashlight, go with the E18R V2.0.
There's no way to charge the battery within the lantern. What a waste. I just realised after I bought it. Any cheap lantern from aliexpress will let your charge it, come on...
What "lantern" are you referring to? This video is for the PD32 V2.0 Flashlight. This particular flashlight does not have built in rechargeability, however we have tons of other versions that do. Look for product names that end in a R.
Buy a kerosene lamp instead. You will be closer to a "lantern":) besides, the USB charging socket is yet another stuff to break down if it should. I prefer the old way though...

Which is the better thrower, the PD32/R, the PD35/R, or the PD36R?

@@hntrains2 no problem!
Is there an 800lm mode? I'm not sure if there is. Only 3 levels, correct?
Only 3 brightness levels. 30 lumen low, 350 lumen medium, and 1200 lumen turbo.
Pd32 vs fenix E18er 2.0,the best?
