Brief Flashlight Overview
Fenix HL18R-T V2.0 Headlamp in black is a specialized model from the Fenix brand for running training and outdoor activities, combining high brightness, various operating modes, and thoughtful ergonomics for outdoor use.
Light Elements
The device is equipped with four LEDs, providing three types of light for a wide range of tasks: long-distance illumination, comfortable warm light, and red light for close-up work or signals.
- Warm white Luminus SST20 CRI80 with a temperature of 3000K;
- Cool white Luminus SST25 with a temperature of 6000K;
- Two red 2835 for soft illumination and signals.
The lifespan of each diode is 50,000 hours (approximately 5.5 years of continuous operation).

The flashlight has 10 modes, grouped for quick one-handed switching. Detailed characteristics by groups and modes are provided below.

Attention! The runtime calculation for Turbo mode includes the time of previous operation in less bright modes. Brightness may decrease when overheating protection is activated, which engages when the electronics heat up.
Control
The model features several switches on the top of the body for convenient control. There is a separate switch for instant locking/unlocking the flashlight, which is convenient for transport and intensive use.

Charging is done via a USB Type-C port, located at the bottom of the body and protected by a cover. Four colored indicators under the lenses display the battery charge level and warn of voltage drop.
Alternatively, three AAA batteries (alkaline or Ni-MH) can be used. Note that the charge level indication does not work when using alternative power sources.
