The Fenix E16 packs a lot of performance into a small package. With a design that is just 2 inches long, and weighing only 0.77 ounces, the Fenix E16 is the ultimate keychain flashlight.
The Cree XP-L HI Neutral White LED can produce a maximum brightness of 700 lumens. A 50,000-hour lifespan means that you won’t have to worry about replacing the bulb. The lens is ultra-thin, increasing brightness and focus. It also comes with an optical lens coating that prevents scratching and wear. A throw distance of up to 465 feet gives you enough range to use the flashlight for hunting and fishing and also makes it effective for night patrols.
With four different settings, the Fenix E16 allows you to customize brightness depending on the conditions. The high mode can produce a maximum of 700 lumens and run for 65 minutes. The low mode emits 3 lumens and can stay on for up to 70 hours per charge. There is also a strobe setting that puts out 700 lumens.
The body is built from high grade, anti-oxidation aluminum, absorbing bumps and blows without dents. The anti-abrasive hard-anodized finish prevents scratching. With an IP68 submersible rating of 2 meters, you can keep the E16 underwater for up to 30 minutes. It also comes with foreign object and dust protection, keeping it safe in tough conditions.
Operation of the Fenix E16 is easy, with all settings controlled by a single button. Press and hold to turn the light on, and press again to change the settings. The strobe mode can be turned on by holding the button for 1.2 seconds. You can also lock the flashlight by double-clicking.
There is a two-way body clip included with the flashlight, making it easy to attach to your belt or pocket. A magnetic tail can keep the flashlight from rolling, and a lanyard and keyring allow you to take it with you wherever you go.
The E16 is designed to be powered by a Fenix Rechargeable 16340 battery (not included) or two CR123A non-rechargeable batteries. If you use non-rechargeable batteries, the max illumination of the flashlight drops from 700 to 300 lumens, and throw distance will be significantly reduced.
The Fenix E16 flashlight comes with a lanyard, keyring, spare O-ring, and a user manual. It’s protected by Fenix’s lifetime limited warranty, which covers any malfunctioning or damage due to a manufacturing defect. If you have any issues with you flashlight, use the Fenix warranty card to reach out to the company, and they can offer to fix or repair it.
Fitting in your pocket or on your keychain, the Fenix E16 is one of the best EDC flashlights out there. A maximum brightness of 700 lumens means it can be used in low light conditions without sacrificing visibility for portability. The durable build and long bulb life will give you years of operation in the most rugged conditions.
