Product highlights

The Fenix WT16R is a 300 lumen work light built to make hands-free, on-the-job lighting genuinely simple. Three lighting functions — spotlight, floodlight, and yellow flash — cover everything from precise task lighting to broad illumination to hazard signaling, and a side light plus magnetic back give you multiple ways to position it exactly where it's needed.

The magnetic back is the real workhorse feature here: attach the WT16R to almost any metal surface — a car frame, a ladder, an equipment panel — and get truly hands-free light for industrial jobs, home repairs, or roadside work. With a beam visible up to 377 feet and an IP66 water resistance rating, it holds up to job-site conditions without hesitation. A 2000mAh Li-polymer battery keeps it running, and USB-C charging means it's ready to go again fast. If your work regularly needs a light that can just stick to something and stay out of your way, the WT16R was built exactly for that.

Performance Highlights

  • Spotlight: 300-lumen High beam reaching 115 meters (377 ft).
  • Dual Beam: Combined spotlight, floodlight, and yellow-flash safety mode in one work light.
  • Durability: IP66 water resistant and impact resistant to 1 meter.

Note: according to the ANSI/PLATO FL1 standard, the above specifications are from the results produced by Fenix through its laboratory testing using the built-in 2000mAh Li-polymer rechargeable battery pack, under the temperature of 21±3°C and humidity of 50%-80%; the true performance of this product may vary according to different working environments. *The High output levels are measured in total of runtime including output at reduced levels due to temperature or protection mechanism in the design.

Charging

  • First switch off the light and plug the USB A socket of the charging cable into an electrical outlet, then connect the USB Type-C socket of the charging cable to the light.
  • The indicator will display red while charging, and will turn green when fully charged.
  • Be sure to close the anti-dust cover once charging is completed.

Note: Low output level of both modes and Yellow Flash are available when charging. The normal charging time is approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes with a 5V/2A adapter from depletion to full charging. Recharge a stored light every four months to maintain optimum performance of the battery.

Battery Level Indication

With the light switched off, single click the switch to check the battery status; the indicator will last for 5 seconds.

  • Green light on: saturated, 100% - 85%.
  • Green light flashes: sufficient, 85% - 50%.
  • Red light on: poor, 50% - 25%.
  • Red light flashes: critical, 25% - 1%.

Intelligent Overheat Protection

The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used on High modes for extended periods. With the light switched on, if High is being selected for over 5 minutes, the spotlight will gradually downshift to 200 lumens and the floodlight will gradually downshift to 150 lumens.

Low Voltage Warning

When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the flashlight is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Low output is reached. When this happens in Low output, the battery level indicator blinks red to remind you to recharge the battery.

Usage and Maintenance

  • Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the light and will void the warranty.
  • Lock the light to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.

Reviews

Great easy to use product.

"I love the the sleek design and ease of use. I thoroghly enjoy the light beams choices spot on visibility."

— Dejauntae W. (5/5)

Great for dog walking

"I walk my dog at night. The floodlight is perfect for not tripping on stuff and alerting traffic to my presence."

— Mark F. (5/5)

Needs stronger magnets, but light is great

"Love the flood light feature. We’ve had close calls coyotes when our cat goes out to do her business. I scan the yard with the floodlight first. The magnets are too small to hold it without slipping, however."

— Deborah R. (4/5)

Could use a metal housing version

"I've had my light for half a year and it work well. Now I work in a place with alot of coolant and oils and unfortunately the plastic housing could not stand a chance. The oils soaked into the seal and the rubber cover for the charging port it gone and now being held by some silicone past but it's still kicking and holding a long charge. I do hope that maybe they'll come out with an all metal housing version of this light because if it can handle oils for as long as has it perfect for every day use."

— Miguel z. (4/5)

This is such a cool

"This is such a cool little light: compact and super bright. It took a few minutes to figure out how to cycle through the different types and levels of light, but once I did it was easy to use. The sidelight is great and extremely bright. Although it doesn't put out as many lumens as other Fenix lights, for someone like myself who is used to cheap, ordinary flashlights, it was amazingly bright. I like the magnets (two) and it is compact enough to stick in your pocket."

— Robert F. (5/5)

Light

"Good light, wish it was brighter"

— Eduardo M. (4/5)

An amazing work light !!! So glad I got it

"Got it for HVAC work and its the best light i could’ve gotten, specially when you can use the magnets and stick it right were you need it …"

— Jesse M. (5/5)

Very versatile, gives you all

"Very versatile, gives you all the light needed in dark places."

— Roger V. (5/5)

It’s ok.

"Nice clean beam pattern and comfortable in the hand. Unfortunately, after one day of use the belt clip came loose (screws are so small we didn’t have the means to tighten it). Secondly, the switch became unresponsive and it took several presses of varying pressure and angle to get it to work. If they fixed some issues we’d try it again on the upgraded variant."

— Richard S. (3/5)

Great light for my work.

"Great light for my work. Built well and works perfectly. Magnets are useful as a third hand to hold light when need two hands for task."

— Ted W. (5/5)
