Throw a MC-E in it and take out a few of its levels...and I would be really interested. I do like the lower low..vs. the TA30 though. I just don't need that many levels.

Interesting !



But now, i learn that i've been mis-pronouncing the name Fenix.


I'd always say: " Fee-Nix " ( like the city in Arizona )


The fellow in the video says: " Feh-Nix "


:eek:

I always it thought it was a Chinese mis-spelling of Phoenix, a symbol of fire and divinity. Or Felix, as in the eye of the cat (sorry). :whistle:

Just got another Fenixlight twitter. The closeup shot of TA21 on Youtube is very cool. Looking forward to getting one in June. Just check fenixgear.com website but no pre-order information yet. Anyone know how much it will cost?

You mean it isn't?? :sigh:

"Fenix" is spelling used in many European languages... It is definitelly not a chinese mis-spelling of Phoenix. Actually Phoenix might be an english mis-spelling of word Fenix :crackup:

Or maybe both are "mis-spelling" of some ancient greek or egyptian word...

Phoenix is Ancient Greek: Φοῖνιξ, phoínix. Fenix would be the english phonetic spelling.

Closer to my 'tc20' concept (5,25,75,175 lumen in neutral-white)
Please let there be a neutral-white version

otherwise, awesome.

I believe there is a thread about Brand name pronunciation...with Dereelight, and Fenix being the most mis-pronounced.

i for one thinik its Fee-nix...because phoenitically, thats how it would be pronounced...
