I just got the Fenix TK40 today. Its the 630 lumen 8xAA battery light.
The only thing I can say so far is that it weighs less than I had imagined it would, OMG I'm still seeing spots from turning it on 'turbo' in a small white walled room and holy hell this thing gets really really hot from the lens down to the tailcap. In fact, I think that may be the only downside.
Please note, that only when in "turbo" mode is the light so hot that it is actually uncomfortable to hold for extended durations (20+ min.) and the batteries get crazy hot.***
Every other feature about this light from the beam color, 'throw', switching method and regulation to the construction, durability and weight is simply amazing.
Thanks again to Fenixoutfitters.com for this awesome torch!
***HA! Upon closer inspection of the users manual, Fenix says to not use the light at the highest output for more than 15 minutes without switching to a lower output to cool the light.
