New Fenix RC40 - 4 Cree XM-L U2 3400 Lumens Flashlight Due Out Next Month

This just in guys. I received this info today from a Fenix source.

Yes, I think you are talking about RC40. Fenix did give us some basic information about this light but they haven’t sent the official announcement yet. Here is what we have for your reference. Price is not available. Factory planed to launch this item in Feb.

RC40 4* Cree XM-L U2 black 1*built-in rechargeable li-ion battery (7800mAh,with 6*18650 batteris in it) 3400 lumens 240h 750m 5 (turbo, high, mid, low, strobe) Feb.

Wow, so that’s the monster that’s going to be at ShotShow :smiley:

Yeppers.

It was your post at CPF that made me find out this info. I copied and pasted your post to a guy that sells Fenix flashlights and he found this out from his supplier I am guessing.

Yeah there’ll be the RC15 and RC40

I think I can safely say the RC40 will be well over my flashlight budget :wink:

Sounds like the RC15 will be your typical 800ish lumens

The RC40 will purportedly be longer than the TK75 and have a proprietary built-in lithium-ion battery

This comes from their facebook page (I don’t facebook) but maybe they’ll be announcing it at the Shot Show next week

My guess is it will have the same size head as the TK70 and a battery pack about like the Olight SR90. That would be my bet.

I’m guessing $250 on price.

Sounds like a cool light except if they were on top of their game,the xml2 would be in it.Hopefully they consider that before the launch,the latest and greatest will sell.

4 XML’s and the same throw as a tk70, I gotta start raising funds :wink:

From my post? O.o

Yep.

This one.

I here yah, I had to sneak mine into the house I here rumors of a 3000 lumen Fenix light coming out, I wonder if its a TK75 with XML2 U2’s I’d be a little upset, outdated after a month but also excited that Fenix is staying competitive

Now do you see how damn smart I thought you were when you said that? It was because of you that I found out about this light today by sending out an email with your info in it.

Sounds pretty impressive. Only negative I can see so far is the likely large size - probably about like a sr90 or TK70. Both of those lights are cool, but they are just not remotely practical. To bad they can’t keep it close to the TK75 size. You would think its four battery setup would handle the 3400 lumens fine.
Anyway, looking forward to check this beasty out.

I regurgitated what I’d heard on Facebook and in another Fenix thread. I don’t even like Facebook but I follow four different pages of Fenix :wink:

No TK75 for me anytime soon. I think I will have to get this one instead if the price is right.

Oh Lordy… i have to stop hanging around BLF… it’s bad for me and my wallet :smiley:
i thought i’m done after i purchased TN30,TN31 and Fenix TK75,
i meant … really, why do i need to buy another light when i have these “monsters”?
i thought these lights will at least last me for few years before i buy another light…
blah…it never stop :weary: … i think i’m going to need to start selling my blood from now on in order to save enough money for the new light S)

Might as well be an UltraFire clone if it’s not priced closer to $960 :wink:

is this the picture of the light? ( the one in the middle)

or is this just an upgrade of TK70 with new battery holder?

it cant be too cheap to acquire it, but impressive specs

I wonder, will it be a four-eyed monster?

I hope not….
