Got my Fenix TK61
Also, could someone post a photo with a TK75 battery extended attached. Since the knurling is different for the 61 and 75 it would be nice to see how the battery tube looks.
Hi kj2,
You compare the TK61, with the TK75 tonight/evening?
The TK61 must be point out much further i hope than the TK75, 92000 kcd, against 170000 kcd.
The high mode of 400 lumens is equally, or even more intense than the TK75, hotspot, and the turbo of 1000 lumens exceed it by far.
Check it out, and post your story tonight here at candlepowerforum. I am curious.
Will post my observation
But having both lights yourself, you could check it out
I have my TK61 send back, because the led is OFF center, and i want a flawless example.
I wonder how a off-center led is possible in the TK61. The reflector sits against the white retainer-ring that holds the led. That way a off-center led wouldn't be possible, because if it is, the reflector wouldn't fit correctly in the head.Bummer! I had a Fenix TK41 that had the led off-center and that bugged me to no end and the hotspot was shaped like a football! Don't they have automatic precision machinery that can center the led perfectly,or do they do it "by eye"? HB

Just a quick FYI for you guys,
I have a TK61 listed in the MarketPlace that I picked up a week ago to compare to other lights. It is exactly as advertised by Fenix. It out-throws the TK75 (though less overall output), by a decent margin.
The Thrunite TN32 out-throws the TK61 by a small margin, and neither light comes close to the Olight SR95-UT.
The only thing cosmetically about the TK61 I wish was different was I wish it had a dark stainless steel bezel ring like the RC40 has. I know they probably were going for a color scheme to match the grey buttons, but I think it would have looked really cool with how big the reflector and head is. Meh, it still looks cool though I guess.

And compared the Tk61 ans the TK75, kj2?
Are you there??
Is that the SR95-UT or the SR95S-UT? I have the SR95S-UT and it is quite a thrower using the SBT-70 LED. The SR95-UT uses the SBT-90 and only musters about 170K candela compared to 260K for the S version.
