You don’t think about some things until you need them. But when you need them, nothing else will do. Like a pocketknife or fire starter. Or a portable flashlight. There’s no substitute for it when you need light. This is why a small, everyday carrying flashlight is so useful. Keep it in a pack or pocket or glove compartment, and you’ll never be stuck in the dark again.
Fenix LD31 Renegade Torch It is the ideal solution for this essential, must-have tool. The Renegade’s Goldilocks design offers the perfect blend of light, packability and features. It’s small (less than 5 inches long), making it easy to keep hidden even in a pocket. It’s bright (maximum 3,200 lumens). It is waterproof. And its rechargeable battery also works as a power bank. It’s the definition of “get everything you want, nothing at all.”
At altitude, the beam distance is 1,165 feet – more than enough to illuminate pathways and detect hazards. At low temperatures, the 100-lumen light lasts more than 30 hours, and the Renegade’s Eco setting (30 lumens) has an astonishing runtime of more than 80 hours. When you need to power off (it has a battery level indicator), simply remove the battery and recharge via its built-in USB-C charging port. Bonus: Manual lockout prevents accidentally draining the battery.
You also get a set of features that make Renegade easy to use and super functional. A side switch makes quick work of cycling through brightness levels, intelligent memory remembers and activates the last level used, and Instant Turbo lets you go straight to maximum brightness, bypassing all other levels. You can stand the flashlight on its back for hands-free use and get AOD-S V2.0 diffuser tip (not included) to convert it into a lantern.
All that, and the durable, aluminum construction is also waterproof up to 2 meters.
