Will there be a Fenix T1 Rebel?

[MI_Joe]

Does anyone know if there will be a Rebel version of the T1?

I really like the Rebel lights outdoors...

Probably never. Lumileds can't keep up production of R100 in quantities needed. They can only reliably produce the RB80's in large numbers.

Hence why Fenix dropped any of their lights using Rebels.

Lumileds really jumped the gun on trying to keep up with Cree, and shot themselves in the foot on this one.

as above but I wouldnt say never, they may have released the R100's premature, but I'm sure they will make some more and then R120's etc Fenix are clearly aware of rebel so I hope they use the higher bins again.

Thanks for the info. Makes sense that it was a manufacturing issue.

Things do appear to be looking up.

According to 4sevens:

"Due to popular demand and the availability to get an adequate supply of
Rebel 100's, the Premium Rebel versions are back in production."
