Usage and Maintenance of the PD36 TAC

  • Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the light and will void the warranty.
  • Fenix recommends using an excellent quality battery.
  • If the light will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery, or the light could be damaged by electrolyte leakage or battery explosion.
  • Lock the light or remove the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.
  • Long-term use can result in O-ring wear. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the ring with an approved spare.
  • Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the lamp's performance as dirty contacts may cause the lamp to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate for the following reasons:
    A: The battery needs replacing.
    Solution: Replace battery pack /battery (ensure battery is inserted according to the manufacturer’s specifications).
    B: The contact or contact point of the battery or flashlight is dirty.
    Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.

The rotary toggle on the tail is a game changer—switching to Tactical Mode takes one thumb movement, no fumbling in the dark. Build feels solid and the beam is impressively bright for such a compact body.

Penelope ★★★★★

I've cycled through a lot of lights over the years, but the tail switch on this one is something else—it clicks between modes with such a clear, positive feel that I can do it blindfolded with gloves on.

Scarlett ★★★★★

The rotary toggle on the tail is the first thing I test on any light, and it’s crisp without being stiff; switching between tactical and general modes takes one thumb flick, even with gloves on. Output is plenty for sweeping a yard or checking a dark crawlspace, and the beam throws farther than I ex
