Fenix L2D Lanyard

[OrchidLight]

I have a Fenix L2D Q5 and the lanyard broke. I have emailed 4stevens about this twice over the course of two to inquire if the warranty covers this sort of thing and if not, where can I buy a new lanyard? I have yet to receive a response.

Does anyone have an suggestions where I can find a new lanard?

Thanks for any info,

You can order a wrist lanyard from lighthound.com. I never liked the wrist lanyards that come with Fenix flashlights. I prefer to run a Size 6 split ring through one of the lanyard holes in the flashlight, and use my own paracord lanyard.

i had the same experience with my L2D lanyard; if theres one thing to be dissapointed about fenix its the quality of their lanyards :thumbsdow

To be honest, the weight of a L2D is too much for the little string.

You might want to consider using the split ring and making a loop of paracord through it.

Currently, customer support at FS is taking more than a week. 2/3 of them are sick and the store owner is on the road.

Call Fenix store directly. They are slow to respond to emails. I am sure they will send you another Fenix lanyard. I asked for one when I bought an EX10 from them, because I don't like the heavy lanyards that come with the Nitecores. They sent me a Fenix lanyard at no charge.

+1 to a split ring and paracord. Simple and cheap solution.

Thanks for all the info and responses. I think I'll get a ring to put the lanyard on this time to see if that makes it last longer.

This kind of lanyard is my favorite, simple and effective.

Where'd you get that lanyard at Sharpy_swe?

I made it

Paracord Orange
Lanyard Cord Lock Ball
Lanyard Closure GID

Don't remember the best size of the splitring.
splitrings etc..

It's easy and fun to make your own lanyards, and most of all they will fit you perfect.
