I want Fenix Forward Clickies!!

[adnj]

Will this work with my retired P2D-CE? Maybe a new forward clickie and a better Cree is in order.

sweet, the fenix forward clickies are ready!

They are back KeyGrip. And, they have an improved forward clickie.....Here....and Here.:twothumbs

Holy crap!!

Wait.... Q2s? I'm not really one to get into bin wars, but isn't that a little low?

Would you rather have a LxTv2 R2 like THIS one ?

I hope the new forward clickies are better than their old ones!

Fenix has some "premium bin" lights with the Q5 also.

I received the new Fenix forward clicky module today and installed it in my L1T V2.0. Nice!! :twothumbs

This new one seems a lot more robust than the old one and gives a nice, crisp snap when clicked fully on.

The pressure required for momentary-on feels about perfect to me...

Only time will tell, but it appears Fenix is going in the right direction with their forward clickies.

Glad to hear this, as I have some on the way. :twothumbs

I took the forward clickie parts out of my L1T tail cap, and put them in my P2D tail cap, to make what I call...The P2T.

I have gone and done this as well, and I must say what a great idea.:thumbsup:

Anyone else agree that it would be really nice to have a LxT with three brights--low med-high turbo--controlled by twisting the head, and then a simple forward clicky tail?

Q5, of course... I'd pay for that.

Well, IMHO, the selling feature of the LxT is the simplistic nature of the 2 modes. Even back in the days of the first offerings with the 'R' bin Lux3's and the reverse clickies. Now with the Q2's and a great forward clicky, it's even better. :thumbsup:

So with a forward clicky on a P3D, to get from off to high you would do:

half-press, half-press, full-press....

And to cycle modes once it's on you do:
full-press, full-press....

Doesn't sound too bad to me. Might have to get me a forward clicky

we need a forward reverse clicky. I know people are going to jump and say its not possible by its nature but it is. basically if its off and you half press it comes on, If its fully on and you half press it goes off -everybody is happy.

The only problem is the complexity of the mechanics, but its a sure winner.

Forward clickies are available from Fenix.

Mine came today. They are easy to fit in the existing tailcap. Just use a pair of nose-end pliers to unscrew the silver retaining ring then the old switch will come out. You have to use the rubber boot that comes with the new switch. The boot is longer so the torch will not tailstand but I don't consider that a problem.

Excellent. :thumbsup: Thanks for the heads-up.
