10:50 Final thoughts - Věda a technologie
I have no use for this technology but man is it cool
Too!
this is crazy, Im getting one. Fenix really makes the best lighting stuff
Definitely a must have for flashlight collectors
I'd been waiting for this.. didnt realize you already had put the review up, this is going to be my deciding point on if I want it *maybe* .. ill post a couple questions after I watch the whole thing tonight or tomorrow
I think a light like this would be perfect for use while boating to spot other boats, navigation marks, etc.
Been waiting for this review
The HT30R is a great LEP .. almost double the intensity of its predecessor, the TK30 (650,000 cd vs 384,000 cd). Keep it up!
I have 10 other Fenix lights and think the beam is cool, but what would you use it for??
@@aarontyrrell2931 I only test and collect :D
Great review, thanks!
I have a few uc45 still and love the recharge port been hidden.
Having the battery indicator hidden isn't such a bad thing since it keeps it stealthy and tactical. Let's say you were hiding in the dark, hunting, you wouldn't want a flashing led visible. Great review, thanks!
my thoughts exactly
Yeah, and if you want it exposed just leave it exposed. Seems the light functions either way
That's incredible
Hey you should include that cool desk timer on your list of hardware you use in the video
Just ordered that and the TK35eu v2 should have next week I have the pd40R V2 has defective rotary switchwhen its on high you have to move the switch around 2 keep light on i have the pd35 as well..that's been a great flashlight
Have you done a longer stepdown test on high? I'm looking to get this flashlight but I am curious on when it actually steps down on high.
Top best review, congratulation.
I have Fenix Tk 30 Lep.
Very soon I buy this flashlight HT30.
Thanks to you my friend, i saw a Flashlight LEP, which does not disappoint anyone.
I subscribed to your channel.
Hi, my name FRANCESCO (Frank - Milan, Italy).
Thanks!
Wanna sell the tk30?
How good would this help you see through very dark limo type tinted vehicles
How wide do you think the spot is at that 400m distance?
Wow 😮
What's the brand of that timer and nice review video.
That beam is the definition of nuts lol
Amazing!
What is it good for, exactly (lots of opinions in the comments here and elsewhere)?
When the spot is on something, can that be seen well? Like, shapes, colours, text?
Are there any LEPs that have decent CRI?
Will the memory work on strobe?
Thanks for a great review, and wow that the HT30R looks totally awesome. One thing you didn't mention in your review, which matters to me, is whether the front-most lens/protector panel is made of glass or some kind of polymer. With all that perfection in the beam, I would hate to think of scratching the front surface if cleaning it from dust and debris. If you still have the unit, please could you try to find out and reply here? Thanks!
From everything that I can tell, and looking at it again, I’d say that this is no polymer. Even though I can find no documentation on it I’m going to go ahead and say this lens is glass
@@ChrispyThings Thank you for that opinion. I have just heard back from my UK dealer, who contacted Fenix directly, and YES, your assessment is correct: this is coated glass. As a result of your review, and this essential (for me!) info, I have just ordered the HT30R. Thank you again! 🙂
Hi again - just to add to my previous, I have been enjoying my new HT30R for the past week. And I can totally confirm, the front flat element is coated optical glass. No question, absolutely definitely so! This is one serious, amazing flashlight/thrower! And thank you once again, for your video review, which convinced me to pony up and buy one!
looking for best adjustable beam, I have a large 2000 lum flashlight that lets you adjust the flood/throw, but don't see any tactical that have that option.
That's because this is a laser, LEP, it's not your typical flashlight.. it's intended to be a concentrated beam..
Xsword LA60 has a (de)focusable beam
Hello to France, je pense que Fenix va rapidement faire des changements sur cette lampe, du moins je l'espere! Merci!
Chrispy.. I did check it out, but I found the Amutorch BT35 at half the price, looking at dimensions, a little more than half the size (possibly) I skimmed but I don't see if you have a review of this one? As much as you're into lights and the detail you go into, I want to see your opinion on it (if you haven't already)
I don’t have that light. I’ll check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!
@Chrispy Things [EDC] it's shipped from China I believe, but only took around a week or so to get in hand. I forgot to check back in to see if you'd replied. But, on paper functionality seems close, yet size and actual is what I'm not sure of.. I like mine, but curious what your thoughts are if you do get one
tk30 vs ht30r thoughts?
The thing about this light is that it is so bright you can't even really see what you're pointing it at.
Even at the 100lm setting?
I think that’s a great idea having the twist cap over the LED. That way when you’re trying to be incognito, you don’t have a light illuminating your face or whatever it’s pointing at…
For a tac light yes. For a searchlight? Nah
nitecore p23i review soon?
Not a bad self defense tool for young women. Pretty sure that would blind any would be attacker. But as useful as a firearm but definitely a cool option.
no SOS mode?
How would this work for replacing my 12 spotlight for spotlighting deer?
Imagine being so incredibly bad at hunting that having a gun isn’t enough of an advantage, you have to spotlight as well
Just got it recently. Not too impressed. Doesn't seem to throw as far as yours. Any LEP better with a tight beam you suggest?
Have you tried any of the Lumintop Thor lights? Throws extremely far and very crisp beam
@@ChrispyThings No, but will check them out. Thank you!
Un essaie de la Fenix C7 peut etre!???
Interesting how the Olight Warrior X 4 also has the power indicator light hidden in the sleeve as well. 🤦🏼♂️
Definitely could make it to the moon.
The light is a laser, but not a white light laser and on its own emits little visible light. The light leaving the lens comes from a small plate with a phosphor that emits white light when excited by the laser. The beam from the laser is collimated, and the emitted white light is also. There is little beam spread over the useful distance. Reflective tape on safety vests and sides of semi-trailers reflect this light with high efficiency and makes them visible from hundreds of yards. The price is all in the projector, as it seems the case is from a dollar store.
*In nerd voice
“Well actually!”
Nah I’m just kidding bud. Thanks for the info
this is my edc flashlight
👍🏻
Fenixlighting always has 20% off makong this about 225
Chicago..ZNAJDZIESZ ZNAJDZIESZ MNIE-?
Absolutely Awesome light but pathetic holster!! For 280.00 that ain't cool🤨
Great review as always✌
That holder is trash. lol
@@ChrispyThings 😂
Fenix calls this an LED, not an LEP. They don't even mention candela on their website . . . ???
😂Can it Zoom out..?
Don’t think this has much use, can’t widen the beam too big to carry in pocket, not as bright as lights you would use for the thing this is made for and very expensive l.
As a search light, it’s awesome. But it’s a very specialized light for sure
For the use case you are wanting to use it for sure, but using this light for what it's actually made for it is incredible
At least they hide their LED. I hate all these new flashlights that have bright LED indicators, tail lights, COB lights on the side...you cannot hide from the bad guys. Plus it all eats up your battery life! And NO WAY I am paying $280 for something I can get under $100.
The tk30 is smaller, more practical and can easily be attached to a rifle for night time target shooting. This new one is more of a novelty for it being too big
The TK30 is smaller, yes, but this one was built with mounting in mind. Its larger size and weight allows it to absorb recoil more without the shock being distributed into the light. Also, the double spring system is also for eating up that momentum. Also, the HT30R throws the beam 25% farther than the TK30, and has about 2 hours more runtime.
@Spyder smaller is better for my use. Good point about the recoil but it's made to withstand a fall of 1 meter and my rifles have minimal recoil to none
They are both novelty unless you have an actual use for a highly specialized light like this. If you do have a use for such a light the HT30R will likely perform better at those tasks. The TK30's doesnt have the same throw. It's listed to have a shorter range by 300 meter. While this on it's own doesnt mean a great deal since few people need to shine a light on something 1500 meters away it also translate to the beam being less focused at all other ranges aswell.
@TheKimjoh560 I have my tk30 on a magnet mount that can easily be attached to any of my rifles in a second. The size and weight is huge advantage in my case and the range is more than enough for my use. I would never buy this new one as it won't suit my needs and won't be as tactical and useful
@@ziadkadi I can see how the smaller version would be better suited as a rifle mounted light especially of you take it on and off alot with a mount permanently attached to the light. I have no use for a LEP mounted on any of my guns as I have other preferences. I carry this in an ASP holster on my duty belt and use it for other things.
If it's also good for starting fires? You could use that for survival as well BUUUUUUT..... lots of other ways to start fire that are a lot cheaper. Fenix might as well throw in a pair of binoculars with it!
Sure. I’ll take those binoculars.
Price $$$$…..just a NON starter! For an EDC thrower, I really like my $22 eBay Sofrin if22a!!! 😅
😏☝This flashlight WILL find Bigfoot🎯
😁lol👅
Holster is loosy goosy.
I like feet
👍🏻
I was searching for a guy stuck in the snowy mountains....... Found him....... Now he's blind 😭 jk
What’s the purpose of this? I can see a whole bunch of kids buying these making a nuisance, I don’t see a ton of practical use though.
Good luck to those bunch of kids getting $280 to buy this light
My thoughts exactly! A unless flashlight for normal purposes.
Fenix holsters are complete shit,right across the board,up your game Fenix.
Who cares about the meters ..500 Lumens it’s nothing
This technology doesnt work like that. It sounds like 500lm is nothing but it will actually look much brighter than most lights at distance (even at the 100lm setting) because there is no spill. Normal lights put those lumens all over the place.
If you shine a 500 lm LEP and a light of the same formfactor of 3000lm at a wall a couple of inches in front of you the 3000lm light will be brighter. If you back upp 30 paces and do the same thing the LEP will be significantly brighter because the other light wilo light up the entire room instead of a smaller area where you are pointing it.
This technology might not be useful for the average user but its not designed to be.
Not a smart design
How so?
