Fenix recently announced the WT20R with a whacky design and I haven't seen any chatter about it here on the forum. Since I love side by sides, and I have one on the way, I figured I'd ask - what does everyone think of this light? Is there anything you want to know about it that I could answer for you?
The nice folks over at Battery Junction sent me over one of these for a review, click here to read it on my site!
From the product page:
The light takes a rechargeable pack or 2xAA
The head rotates from a right angle to a traditional flashlight
Been enjoying mine for almost 2 months. Have been surprised about minimal mentions for a kinda handy design, when blinding overkill isn’t needed in close spaces.
It’s 400lm per emitter, but you can’t have both on at same time. One thing the literature doesn’t mention, is that the wide emitter is ~6000K, and the spot led is a nice creamy ~4000K. Regulation works really well.
I have only 1 question: Why is there no neutral white, high-cri version, with moonlight or real low mode?
But that would probably be a question for Fenix to answer.
There’s exposed screws there, I won’t be able to resist trying to remove them to identify the LEDs. Add King as it’s not glued or something I should be able to tell you.
I like this light more than I thought I would, and the rotating head and custom cell both add to the cost, not to mention the mold - but I agree, if you’re composing too the big budget brands they’re certainly more expensive.
