Kj2,
can you please tell which dealer/store is it that one can preorder the Fenix PD35 from?

Great light, but I'm actually glad it's (barely) wider, longer and heavier than the PD32UE so I don't feel the "need" to upgrade :) Plus no neutral white which is an immediate deal-breaker for me.

Re: fenix pd35

Seems like a loser. They didn't fix the flaws of the PD32ue. The PD32ue was a perfect cool-white, 5000K, which should be Fenix's standard.
-: It is 1mm longer, and they REMOVED the crenelated bezel.
+: Flattened edge of heatsink as anti-roll is a plus
+: Larger 1" head/reflector improves throw (what about body tube diameter? looks like carryover)
+: Brighter strobe
-: No more SOS
So this has less outdoors appeal, and more security guard appeal.

I like the fact that they removed the crenelated bezel. The PD32UE crenelation isn't that useful IMO.
I like the heatsink more. The loss of SOS is slightly a bummer. But you always can morse-code it yourself ;)
