Fenix E12 V3.0 – The Most Powerful AA Flashlight on the Market
Fenix E12 V3.0 is one of the best AA battery-powered flashlights available today. This compact yet powerful AA flashlight delivers up to 200 lumens of output with a beam distance of nearly 80 meters. On the lowest brightness level, runtime extends up to 100 hours, making it an excellent choice for everyday use, camping, and emergency backup lighting at home.
Usability has been refined to perfection. The dual-direction stainless steel clip allows you to attach the light to a pocket, backpack, or even a cap brim for headlamp-style use. The magnetic tail switch securely attaches the flashlight to metal surfaces, enabling hands-free operation. The E12 V3.0 is a true pocket-sized EDC flashlight.
Easy One-Handed Operation

The flat tail design enables candle-style use – you can stand the flashlight upright to illuminate the surrounding area. The magnetic tail also makes it a practical work light for garages, job sites, or maintenance tasks.
Up to 100 Hours of Runtime on a Single AA Battery
