PD36 TAC Tactical Flashlight, 3000 Lumen USB-C Rechargeable, with LumenTac Organizer

Has a lock setting which prevents accidental tail switch activation when in pocket or bag. Gets hot fast on the bulb side because the light is so bright. Various power modes are useful as well (dimmer for reading up close and bright for distant objects)

At first I hated this flashlight, but I quickly realized that I hated it because I was so used to the old functionality. This new system is so much more user friendly. I have a TK16 as a secondary backup that keep in my jacket pocket. Sometimes it’s easier to pull this than the PD36 TAC on my belt, however once I have the TK16 in hand, it’s much more difficult to operate. The momentary switch on the PD36 is so easy to depress and finding the right intensity is much easier as well, because the toggle button on the TK16 takes time to find with my thumb and sometimes difficult to press. My mistake with the PD36 was expecting it to operate like my TK16. I should have kept an open mind, because now I wish my TK16 would operate like my PD16. I’m going to use my TK16 as a weapon light and purchase another PD16 as a backup to my EDC PD16…so, two PD16 flashlights.

Still working after years of use and charges fast! 100% recommend

Legit flashlight. I use it a lot when I jog with my doberman during the early morning hours!

The tail switch is garbage, broke the next day after I got it (not even 24hours) I looked up on youtube/Google on how to fix. I watched a video put out by Felix's official YouTube channel. They said that the silver ring in the tail switch interior needs to be tightened. Did that and still nothing. For context it did work when I got it, just not the day after. Made sure the battery was charged and everything, I even press down on the battery with a hex key and it was able to activate meaning the battery is not the one at fault or empty. This is the only fenix I have bought/owned and I have heard good things about their flashlights so maybe I just got a bad one, but that does not excuse them from the fact that they messed up QC and sold me a defective product at over a 100 dollar no less.

I really like this flashlight. I have purchased 3 and will probably purchase a few more as gifts. The beam is super bright on maximum and the brightness level is easily adjustable plus it has a strobe option. For me it is a perfect size and weight for everyday carry. I like that it can be locked so it does not turn on accidentally. The USB charger allows you to charge it from a wall outlet, a battery pack or in the car. The two minor issues I have are 1) you have to disassemble the unit to charge the battery and 2) of greater concern is when used at maximum lumens the flashlight gets really hot (I know - not unexpected) but one still needs to use caution and this is especially important if kids have access to it. I wish extra batteries were available so you could use one while the other is charging. Overall I highly recommend this flashlight.

I had hesitated to purchase an expensive flashlight because I had lots of small cheap ones that I thought got the job done. And if I lost or damaged the cheap light..... so what. However, after purchasing this Fenix TAC model flashlight, I have changed my mind. The brightness levels are so much better than my cheapo lights. There is just no comparison. For home security, these types of flashlights are the best. I also really like the USB-C charging capability.

Everything about this light is perfect, worth it 100%, don’t hesitate to buy ❤️
