Customer Review :
exquisite performance flashlight : Fenix TK45 High Performance Flashlight
My first caress with a high performance flashlight was an Inova T4 (max 110 lumens or so) that I bought from a store while on a visit to the U.S. Back in 2006. I used that light uptil now and am very much satisfied with it.
I stumbled over the Fenix Tk45 while checking amazon.com and was quite shocked to see the maximum yield rated at 760 lumens! (and I thought my 110 lumens T4 was bright!). I was a bit nervous about going for "Made in China" product! (well go to admitt I have a unwavering bias towards Made in U.S.A. Products, thanks to my 4 years of under-grad college life in the U.S.). Any way Tk45 was reviewed quite conveniently on both amazon.com as well as other internet forums. So I took the plunge with it, neglecting models from Surefire and EagleTac.
I have had the light for two weeks. I primarily use it as personal companion in private work (I run 4 dissimilar subterranean mining operations in the Salt Range region of Pakistan). These are private rock salt mines (with mine heights of over 125 feet) and private coal mines (with mine height of 7 feet). So far the Tk45 has performed superior in these areas. I will make an observation that Tk45 is ideally considerable for tight, constrained or defined widths areas like tunnels, private mines, and maybe not that well considerable for longer range applications. Now don't get me wrong, Tk45 still has an large throw but what I mean to point out is that the beam is quite spread out and not tightly focused. So in any place with a defined width, the illumination from Tk45 in front will be 360 degrees of brightness. I have used the Tk45 on covering also at night (mind you on a moonless night it is pitch dark in these barren and scarcely populated areas of salt range in Pakistan) and it does give exquisite illumination (a hiding bandit in Salt Range at night has no opportunity to hide!). Battery life has been good, so far the sanyo enelope batteries I ordered with the light have not needed any recharging. I think using a acceptable Aa size battery for such a high powered flashlight is honestly economical. One of my problems with Inova T4 was that fact that it used three Cr123A batteries that needed transfer every four private visits for me. So that comes out very expensive. I will have to wait and see how does Tk45 behave in ultimate hot weather of Salt Range (come May, June and July) when temeperature can soar to nearby 48C (or 118F). So far in cold weather with temperatures nearby -1C (or 30F) it has performed without any issues. I did observation a bit more than general and robust build up of moisture on flashlight covering in the humid private conditions of a coal mine. It was bit more than I would call normal. May that has something to do with some definite material used in construction of flashlight as I did not have that qoute with my Inova T4. I will have to check this additional come August when the monsoon season starts here and humidity remains over 95% for whole month. Having four dissimilar yield levels is also very user-friendly as in an application like mine I dont all the time need high illumination and this sustains the battery life.
I would say an exquisite flashlight, great design, superb illumination, prudent to use, expensive to buy. Well done Fenix (as far flashlights go, I can be comfortable with "Made in China").
