Hello,
My name is Eryk. I am writing reviews in Polish.
Reviews I translate – google translator.
The Fenix TK25 R & B was packaged in a box that was rather dark in color. In the HM50R the colors of the packaging are much brighter, and when the whole world (the one who believes in warming ...) uses the so-called solution.Ecological, Fenix decided to pack the flashlight into a plastic package that is also transparent on the top.
This is how the sides of the packaging look
On the reverse, we will find some technical information, a table, a chart, and I will focus on this later
The packaging is very rich, we will find here:
Fenix HM50R torch
- head strap
- papyrus
And in additional cardboard packaging:
- spare oring and eraser on the USB port
- Spare rubber element in which we put the flashlight
- USB cable
The instruction manual, unfortunately, is not translated into our native language
Warranty Card
Time to start a proper review
The strap attached to the flashlight is made of pleasant and pleasing materials.The contact area of the forehead is further supported by a strap made of silicone - for better protection against sliding.
The switch protects the gray rubber, very nice made, click pleasant, we do not feel under the finger of the button, click sure and clearly marked
Button has one more function.In its vicinity the manufacturer mounted the diodes, which are the indicator of the charge of the cell.When lit at:
- solid green - cell charged 80-100%
- flashing green - cell charged 50-80%
- solid blue - cell charged 20-50%
- flashing blue - a cell charged less than 20%.
In addition, we will find here a built-in charging system and when:
- the link is loaded with a blue LED
- When the link is charged, the LED is green
I've already mentioned a USB port.The upper part of the harness secures the rubber element.I'm not sure if it is needed (ie charger), but once it is, it is worth mentioning that Fenix secured it quite well, at the moment of tilting a piece of rubber can hear the characteristic sound, suggesting that air or water should not get in.
The manufacturer mentions a performance of 0.7A and it turns out to be true!
Below on the most advanced element of the torch is a gray ring, no doubt adds beauty and beautiful lanterns, personally, I love such a solution!
Quick with AR coatings, clean SMO spotlight and XM-L2 XIM LED - well centered.I ask myself one basic question, why so COOL - I do not know how you, but I do not like that color.
On the back delicate ribbing, which should help in better heat dissipation, midrange without peeling - is a typical forehead flashlight, only on the cap will meet delicate indentations
The lamp at the height of the reflector was covered with a large inscription "Fenix HM50R" - so if someone forgot
Fenix also took care of people who may have a problem in which side we turn the cap
The cover is quite hard, gold plated springs, unfortunately it is not equipped with a magnet, and it is a great damage, flashlight competition more and more often have such "bajer".Factory thread dry, even trace, I have not even found a trace of his lubrication ...
In the set we get a link 16340 Fenix 700mAh with security
Controller:
The switch has a built-in diode that indicates the charge state of the cell, has reverse polarity protection, too high temperature (specifications are 65 degrees, torch is hot, TURBO mode is instantaneous) and low voltage Is in the link, the driver only takes us to TURBO mode)
control:
- a single click activates the charge status of the cell
- hold button 0.5s flashlight turns on in last saved mode (last mode memory)
Modes operate in a loop:
- low 4lm
- average 30lm
- 130lm high
- TURBO 500lm (this mode for about 30-40min is reduced to about 30%, while the decrease of 100% to 40% occurs after about 15 minutes)
When the voltage on the cell is below 3.4V, the torch takes us to TURBO mode, the highest mode is high.
For example, the possibility of using a diode that informs us of the state of the cell as a locator or a flashlight on the head is an additional indicator, there is no protection against accidental switching on, or the possibility of immediate entry into the TURBO or low mode.
On the plus side, there are no other modes than the four primary (and three if the voltage drops to 3.4V)
The weight of the torch with the band and the link is less than 78 grams, not much
Left Fenix HM50R, right Skilhunt H02 New Neutral
Field shooting, camera settings ISO-200, f / 2, 2s, white balance - Fluorescent H
Fenix HM50R TURBO
Fenix TK25 R & B Medium
Skilhunt H02 New high
Jetbeam JET-1 MK 14500 highest mode mode
Jetbeam JET-1 MK cell AA mode highest
Fenix HM50R and Skilhunt H02 new - side by side, the difference is noticeable
Here in the larger group: Jetbeam JET - 1 MK, Fenix HM50R, Skilhunt H02 New, Fenix TK25 R & B
Larger and smaller, the Fenix HM50R and TK25 R & B

A few words to summarize:
Fenix HM50R is the second flashlight of this manufacturer that I had the pleasure of using.As every product has several advantages and disadvantages.With the advantage of a very easy to use driver, an indicator that informs us about the state of the charge of the cell, something like this is missing from many other lanterns.The strap has reflective elements, it is a shame that they are not / can not be supported by, for example, a red diode.In terms of performance, I can not say the wrong word, I did not find here any qualitative deficiency here, beautiful clean SMO spotlight, with less beautiful cold LED.With the diode itself, there are no problems, but I can not understand why manufacturers are so often and often go in the direction of cold diodes, I just do not understand.Equipment rich, which is rarely enough.
By discussing the driver I listed some of the shortcomings that I notice, however the biggest disadvantage and disadvantage may be the cold diodes ... And the price here is that Fenix does not compete with other brands in this model, although it will just verify the market.
Personally, I think the optimum power supply for the flashlights is the 18650, and I support that opinion.Yes, I know manufacturers are following the consumer's voice, as consumers need such flashlights, companies produce, and I might even be friendly with her if it were not the color of light, after all, it's a really cool flashlight.
Successful shopping !

Eryk
