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.

6 18650 battery, I wonder what shape it'll be oo:

It will be the shape of a flashlight silly. LOL! :twothumbs

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.

DOH!!
Thanks for that! :thumbsup:

I've been looking forward to 3000+ lumens, but I'm not sure how I feel about a built in battery pack. What do you do once the special pack craps out?

I hope not

Wow. Quadruple XM-L generating 3,400 lumens that throws 750m. The reflector must be huge.

2013 is going to be really interesting.

ROTFL!

Well don't forget battery pack will be included.

Should't Fenix make something that could rival Olight's SR95UT? Would be nice to have more options in the BIG BOYS lights.

That was pretty good. Hee hee!

I agree. But notice Fenix isn't in the market for the super high price lights. They typically like staying around the $200 mark top end.

They might be able to pull this one off at $225. But don't hold your breath.

yup, its a more lucrative market in the edc market. cheaper lights, bigger sales volumes. i think the new sweet spot for lights are in the 40-60+ range of pricing. Look at the new offerings from Nitecore, a lot are in the 60+ range.

And arent they rumored to be sister companies along with FourSevens? That was why 4Sevens.Com used to have links to Fenix and Olight lights for sale, right?

Looks like I will have a new Fenix light soon
