The Fenix BC06R rechargeable red flashlight delivers two power levels - 10 and 30 lumens plus a brake light mode - 90 lumens. In both power levels, it has fast flash, slow flash and constant light functions, and in the lower level it also offers rotating light. Power is supplied by a built-in 560 mAh lithium-polymer battery, which is charged via a USB-C connector directly in the flashlight. The light source are red LEDs that are hidden beneath a slightly flared optic that creates a wide light beam visible at up to 270 degrees. The effective warning distance of the flasher is 100 metres. The weight of the flashlight is only 44.5 grams.
The mounting design allows for quick mounting and dismounting of the light on the bike without tools. The clamp fits a seat tube with a diameter of 25.4 to 31.6 millimeters. Also included is a bracket that can be used to attach the flasher to the saddle rails (the distance of the rails must be between 39 and 50 millimeters). With a 10 lumen fast flash mode, the Fenix BC06R can last up to 24.5 hours, providing safe lighting for night training, regular commuting and endurance racing.
All flashlight parameters (lumen output, battery life, waterproofing and range) are measured in accordance with ANSI/NEMA FL 1-2009.
