    Fenix Customer Service Question

    ...Well the switch that Colt at Fenix Lighting promised me has arrived. Unfortunately it is about .080 (2.0mm) too large in diameter to even go into the LD10...It was a good try and Colt did what he could do but it looks like the search will go on. There may have to be a new Fenix in my future...

    Fenix Customer Service Question

    ...Thanks for all the feedback on my inquiry about Fenix C.S.

    Fenix Customer Service Question

    Being an extremely new member, I hoping this question isn't out of place or been answered numerous times in the past. Has anyone tried to get "Customer Service" from Fenix after the warranty, on the flashlight in question, has expired? If you did, how was the service that was or was not...

    Best single cell 18650

    ...I am certainly NOT the most well suited person to answer this but...I have had a Fenix PD35 for a couple of years. It's a single 18650 cell light and it has been doing everything I've wanted it to. There are probably better choices out there but this one has been fine for me...Good luck...:)

    Five Stages of Flashlight Collecting

    ...I don't think I'm at a stage of "Addiction" just yet. I've gone through the "Justification" stage and the "Appropriation" stage already. I think I'm at, what might be called...the "Trouble-shooting" stage...LOL...Gotta find out a fix for a Fenix I own...:)

    What flashlight you have in hand before you get into CPF?

    My first flashlights were the old Ever-ready 6 volt lanterns with the sealed beam. I still have it but no battery. Then I went to Maglites from 5D down to 2AA Mini-Maglites. Now I have Fenix and Streamlight.
