Hopefully it's not a sign of lowering standards.
Tried cleaning it but it did not help it still turns off when I change modes and it fails very frequently I have to send it back, so I'm the only one who has this problem? I've never had a Fenix fail right out of the box and I've bought many over the years.
Is that the New SS E05 on the original E05 or are those both the newest versions?
Those are both the new 2014 versions. I have not tried it with a new + old combo, but may do that.
1 - the new 2014 stainless head fits and functions just fine on the "old" aluminum body.
2 - the "old" aluminum head fits but does not function on the new 2014 stainless body.
I've had my E05 2014 for a couple of days now and I wish low was lower and I really wish it had a clip. I'll continue using my Olight i3s instead.
Yes, I read the specs before purchasing it but I didn't realize 8 lumen was so bright. Also since I'm pretty sure Fenix reads this forum it doesn't hurt giving some constructive critique. I'm pretty sure most of us would have liked a clip on it. At least a removable one... Maybe the 2015 edition will have one

I like the previous E05 and I use it just about daily. Hopefully Fenix will releases the other colors for the 2014 edition in the near future.

I'm glad it's not like the i3S. That's a really nice light with absolutely horrible mode sequence.
I thought this E05 would bridge the gap bewteen a 1xAA and the tiny Photon for my keychain. Unfortunatley, it's still too large for my keychain. I know that's just a personal preference since many people carry these. I just like to keep the bulk/weight on my keychain to a minimum.
Very nice pictures!
The Aluminum 2014 E05 has the 3 modes, its a great light, I really like the 8-25-85 sequence, and the knurling in hand.
I prefer the old one,one mode and it is enough for me
