Fenix TK61

[Ernst from Germany]

Hallo Capolini
Thanks for your answer, the TN32 is in stock and not too expensive.
My great wish is the Armytek Grizzly, is not in stock.The Solarforce s2200 is also in my brain.
In Germany we say" A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"
The TN32 is a very fat sparrow.
Best greetings from Hannover, later i will look for Kinderheim Deutschland

The one thing I LOVE about the TK61 thought which apparently no lights seem to do these days is that it is a pretty dang heavy light and they didn't try to go TOO crazy with the lumens. 1000 for an xm-l2 is reasonable.

No step down which is fantastic. You can run the TK75 at 1000 or so, but you aren't going to get this kind of throw. I honestly am sick of step downs when lights could simply be more massive and with more surface area to cool the light and keep them from stepping down. Or with a really good heatsink off of the led like the TN32 has. Even that light steps down though and I would rather have the highest mode on the light be good for at least a few hours.

I agree about its great that the TK61 does not steps down in effect. I don't either like lights that steps down. I'd rather have lights that are more massive and with more surface area to cool them so they can sustain high output over longer time without stepping down.

I already have my TK75-L2 that has excellent throw, so I don't really have any need for the TK61, but I have to say that this light interests me. Now I hope that we will see a review if this light soon!

Will this be the first Fenix that hits (visible) the trees on my workplace (400 meters away)????
My TK70 could not......

My TK75 and Fenix RC40, can easily lit up trees at more than 400 meters distance, if its clear outside and dry air.Im sure the TK61 can lit up trees at more than 600 meters distance, its beam distance is over 800 meters.But when can i order it?

Thanks! Odd that the TK61 wasn't shown in Going Gear's video.

I feel like I just looked at hundreds of pictures of porn... flashlight porn.

I want something from every company shown in those pics.

And if its totally dark outside.... That's the biggest problem in my region

That means IMO the lights are ready to be released soon

I now really want have the TK61 , when can i order it=

 

[RemcoM]

That reflector of the Fenix TK61 is HUGE!

That will give enormous throw.

When can i have it, order it.

I love this light if It's MT-G2.

The TK61? It's going to be using an xm-l2 with cool white or neutral white tint variants. From what I hear the MT-G2 has insane output, but the xm-l2 is pretty much where it's at right now in terms of peak efficacy.

The MTG2 has a much larger led surface area and therefore will only throw approx half the lux. Im not quite sure why they went for such a long run time and only 1000lm when this was designed with 90mm+ head . I think they should of made it like my tk75 with a turbo mode say 1500 lumen and the 1000 lumen setting as high, then the lux figure on turbo would be around 250000 lux- class leader, fenix quality.

Hey have you checked out the Nitecore SRT? I picked one up a few months ago and have been pleased with it. I was looking for something compact with a good flood. This light seems to work perfect for what I need.

There's no way you can do that with a single XM-L2. 1000 is about the max you can do without melting the LED.

Not so...the XM-L2 is only rated for 3 amps, but it can run 6-7 amps. Vinh has multiple lights on offer, with XM-L2, that do 1400-1600 lumens. And given the size of the TK61, there is plenty of mass to keep it reasonably cool for a long period.

3 amps on aluminium pcb and 6amps on copper and up to 1800 led lumens. Just check out the new tn-32 its driven at 6amps and 1700lmns.
