Fenix E-Lite

Bad build quality. Broke Two of them.

Such a cool and handy little light! It's a little more expensive than buying a small, cheap torch, or something off amazon, but it's absolutely worth it. It's very high quality and I can see it lasting me many years. It is obviously very well built. Sometimes it pays off to buy something slightly more expensive and have it last longer, with the bonus of it performing better and being a nicer experience for that longer period of time. I used it a few times clipped to the back of my new Superraptor 2 (an incredible headlamp I also bought from Varuste) for night time running, and I didn't even feel that it was there! The red light is very bright, and there's something about the way it glows - it's bright but it's slightly diffused around that rectangular shape. It's hard to explain, but it looks very cool and has an air of high quality to it. Also the button has a really nice, ever so slightly soft feel to it. I've also used it attached to my keys to traverse some mud as I was getting into my car. It's so light that I don't feel it's in my pocket (make sure to attach it to something! :) The only negative thing I can say about it, which isn't really negative, is that getting the small keyring loop, that comes with the lamp, onto the body of the lamp was a bit fiddly. It took a few minutes to achieve, but now it's there I don't have to worry about doing it again. It also means that it will stay put! So I can confidently attach and unattach it to my keys. I was concerned that the little loop would make a noise or annoy me when I attach it to the back of my headlamp when running, but I didn't notice it was there. I also attached the lamp to the back of my backpack, and that gave me more confidence being seen at night. It came maybe 80% charged and I haven't had to charge it yet, but I'm sure it will charge quickly via USB-C. Overall I'm very pleased with this little lamp! Thanks again to Fenix and Varuste for knocking it out the park!
