Upgraded Every Day Carry Flashlight
Fenix knew there was a hungry market from compact every day carry flashlights ever since the release of its popular E11 LED flashlight. Over the years, technology improved and they found it was time to make an upgrade to the E12. This flashlight uses a single AA battery to generate 130 lumens in its highest mode! That's enough illumination to light up a dark alley, a back country trail, or a whole campsite and it fits in the palm of your hand. Unlike other compact flashlights, this LED device doesn't skimp on features.

Tail-Switch Interface
The E12 is the little dog who thinks he's a timber wolf. The configuration is exactly what you'd expect from a true tactical flashlight, with comfortable knurling for a secure grip, and forward-facing tail-switch for activation and mode selection. Hikers and adventurers love this set-up because they can easily access all of the lights features with one hand, while the other is carrying firewood, a walking stick, or another tool. The only difference between this light and many tactical lights on the market is that this device only measures 3.6 inches in length.

The E12 has three separate output modes. When you're scanning the forest for firewood, you can switch on the 130 lumen high mode and see every last log and twig. When you're looking for the spatula next to the fire pit, you can use the 50 lumen medium mode and avoid the blinding glare off the rocks. And when you're reading the map, you can use the convenient 8 lumen low mode.

Water Proof and Impact Resistant
Precision craftsmanship and rubber O-ring seals help keep this flashlight water proof to IPX-8 standards. That means it can be fully submerged in up to 2 meters of water for up to 30 minutes. The aircraft-grade aluminum body is finished with a premium type III anodizing. Together, these materials protect against impacts, abrasions, and corrosion.
