I’m looking for a Fenix e11 (black 1st or 2nd Gen model) to replace my misplaced one. I have flashlights to trade if you are into that. Let me know, Thanks!

The E11 has a special place in my heart because it was one of my first EDC lights. A few friends carried them, too.

I upgraded to an E12 when it was released, and carried that until graduating to 18650-powered ZebraLights.

I still have a first-gen and a second-gen E11 that continue to work great. I’ve taped some colored gels to the front and now they’re loaners for young flashaholics.

Have you considered the E12? I’m curious about why you prefer the E11. I remember missing the forward-clicky of the E11 when I switched to the E12, but I liked the three-mode setup and the ability to tailstand.

I hope you find another E11, or better yet, that your misplaced one turns up. :slight_smile:

And welcome to BLF!

I’d remember the E11 vividly even if my old one wasn’t still at home and in use by my mother – I’d send it to you at just the mailing cost if we didn’t live in different countries. Toughest damn tail switch I have ever seen on a flashlight (made worse by the small un-ergonomic size for large hands), tightly focused TIR optic good for walking down a street at night, two dead simple modes and the runtime you’d expect of an AAA light nowadays.

I wish I had an E11 also. The E12 is my current cockroach light and I wouldn’t be loaning it to anyone. Enough C8s and S2s for that.
