So far, all I know is that unlike it's predecessor, it will be able to accept a 16340 lion :thumbsup:

Another nice Fenix-EDC...
Take a look at the specs, 510 lumens is only with 16340...

I like that they put the heatsink ribs around the mode button, instead of making it longer like the PD35 (compared to the PD32).

Seems like a good jump from the PD22. Nice and compact!

I also wonder if this means more XP-L upgrades for other Fenix lights. LD22UE?

I'm interested. The only reason I didn't buy one before was the lack of 16340 support. 6lm seems pretty high for a low mode; I'd prefer something <2lm.

No moonlight mode again, eh. Fenix...:shakehead

After so long complaining about 16340 compatibility, I can only hope that they will also listen about moonlight mode too!

The new light looks like a good upgrade, though I think my original PD22 with the XP-G2 emitter may serve my needs better. The lower 3 lumen low is the brightest I'm comfortable using when my son is sleeping next to me in the tent. I use the 105 lumen mode on my PD22 as a backup headlight on my bicycle. While the ability to use RCR123 batteries would be nice, I get better cold weather performance with primary CR123a batteries. I have a ton of Panasonic CR123a batteries that I bought for $0.75 each recently, so I'm not in a hurry to start using RCR123 batteries.

I'm personally not interested in this light but the fact that Fenix came out with a 16340 light is significant. Now there's hope one day will 1-lumen lows and AA lithium compatible lights too at last!
