Reviews

"I was devastated when my Fenix flash like stoped working. Then when i figured out it was just the battery, the first thing i did was check their site for the correct replacement battery and there it was! Right after I ordered it, Jess from Fenix reached out and told me the order for my new battery and flash light have been confirmed and then when it arrived she asked how I liked the product and if the new flashlight was working well. So great costumer service! Wont be going anywhere for my battery and flashlight needs!"

Best battery for best headlamp—not immortal

"I suppose I’m rating the headlamp (HM65R) as much as the battery, as it’s the only application I’ve used the battery in, but it truly provides next level brightness (amazing for trail running at night). I have noticed a pretty significant drop in battery life after about a year with the brightness automatically fading (earlier than when I first got it). But at full charge, it’s amazing. I wonder if they could improve on the longevity though."

Awesome

"Best compact flashlight I've used and I have a stack of personal flashlights. We have starlight for issue and my personal Fenix outshines easier to charge and that area is protected So it's almost impossible to break. I ordered it because our starlight never are charged or broken and one of our guys has one. Everyone borrows my Fenix it's been borrowed so much im going to have to buy another one soon, because someone else always needs it. Thanks graveyard shifter."

Some of the best products available.

"Have bought several fenix products and have never been disappointed has always been an amazing product and have lasted for years. The only thing this time around is taking much longer to receive the package, but I have confidence and patience in there company’s delivering system worth the weight in time"

Make sure you order correct

"Make sure you order correct one, one needs an external charger and one has micro USB port on side of battery. Two slightly different part numbers. Love the battery."
