Fenix ​​TK22 Ultimate Edition tactical LED flashlight

The latest version of the Fenix TK22 Ultimate Edition tactical flashlight offers a luminous flux of up to 1,600 lumens (ANSI) and an afterglow of 405 meters. It is equipped with the latest high-performance LED LUMINUS SST-40. The lamp is powered by one Li-ion battery type 21700 with a USB-C connector (included in the package) or an 18650 battery, for which it is necessary to use a reducer (reducer is included in the package).

The head of the lamp is equipped with a striking rim made of steel, which is additionally supplemented with three spikes made of tungsten steel. Thanks to this, the lamp can be used to break glass in crisis situations or for self-defense. Due to its massive design, the Fenix TK22 UE LED light is as solid as a tank while maintaining a compact size. In addition, this model is extremely resistant to frost. The lamp is powered by a digitally regulated constant current to guarantee a constant light output even when the voltage in the batteries is reduced (while they are gradually discharged).

Fenix TK22 Ultimate Edition has a total of five lighting modes with a duration of up to 80 hours. The very solid and waterproof design predestines this tactical light for harsh outdoor conditions, for professionals, armed forces and hunters.

The TK22 lamp is produced by Fenix in two variants. Interested in more detail on all the differences that can be found between this version and its twin, the Fenix TK22 V2.0? Read the comparison article of both lamps.

All lamp parameters (luminous flux, battery operation time, waterproofing, afterglow and impact resistance) are measured in accordance with the ANSI/NEMA FL 1-2009 standard.

Controlling

To turn it on, press the switch located at the end of the lamp, for immediate activation, hold down the button. By pressing the side button at the light head, you can switch between power modes at any time during operation. To switch to flash mode, hold down the side button for about 0.8 seconds.

Intelligent protection against overheating - due to the huge performance in the 1600 lumen mode, the operation in the turbo mode is limited in time. After 15 minutes, the output gradually decreases to 1200 lumens over 80 seconds. If the internal temperature of the lamp rises to 55°C, it will automatically start reducing the output in gradual steps of 30 lumens every 6 seconds until its temperature stabilizes or drops to 500 lumens. As soon as the temperature of the lamp drops below 55°C, the power will gradually increase again.

Warning of dead batteries - the lamp will gradually automatically switch to the lowest mode and flash 3 times every five minutes.

Warning

• Use only high-quality rechargeable batteries to avoid damage to the lamp, for example due to leakage of substances from the battery.
• The manufacturer strongly does not recommend using unprotected Li-ion batteries.
• Insert the batteries with the positive pole towards the lamp head.
• If the protective rubber rings appear damaged after a long period of use, replace them. The rings must also be lubricated to prevent rubber erosion. By following these rules, the lamp will be properly protected against water.
• If the light flickers, does not switch to higher power modes or does not light up, it may be for one of the following reasons:
  
  • Batteries are almost empty - replace them.
  • The contacts inside the lamp are clogged - clean them with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol.
  • The head, body or back of the lamp is loose, tighten them.
