Fenix TK35UE 2018 Upgrade Flashlight Review

Scuba Diving Ambassador Cody F.

Out with the old and in with the new. The TK35UE 2018 upgrade is not only powerful and trustworthy, it is also innovative. With the many new features they added to this light, it easily became my favorite light. This light has amazed me in many ways that I could not have imagined.

At first the switches may look a little complicated, but it’s actually very simple. There is a total of three switches on the butt end of the flashlight. The biggest button is to turn the light on and off, while the tactical switch with a button in the middle controls your settings. The tactical switch is what makes this light unique. You have three modes that you can easily switch in between lockout, tactical and outdoor.

The three modes are perfect to accommodate you in any situation. In outdoor mode you can toggle between different brightness. While in tactical mode you can easily turn on and off your light with ease as well enter into strobe. The best feature that I like is the lockout mode. The lock out mode assures that my light doesn’t go off automatically while I store/carry it. This is an important feature for me because I don’t want to worry if my light is on in my bag draining my batteries. But if the batteries ever do get low there is an indicator on the butt of the light and if need, you can recharge your batteries with a micro USB.

The TK35UE is truly an upgraded version of the TK35. It is over three times brighter than the original version and with all the new features it was able to maintain its comfortable easy to grip body. I didn’t think it was possible to make the TK35 better but with the 2018 upgrade Fenix proved me wrong.
