Pistol LED flashlight Fenix GL06 is designed specifically for use on short weapons equipped with a MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail and Glock. It offers a maximum light output of 600 ANSI lumens with a throw of up to 140 meters. The flashlight is powered by one Li-ion battery Fenix ARB-L16-700UP with an integrated micro USB connector (battery and cable are included in the package). If necessary, a disposable lithium battery can also be used CR123A. The simplified control of the torch is ambidextrous (for both right- and left-handed users). Mounting on the gun rail is easy and requires no tools - the flashlight is slid onto the gun rail and secured with a lever. It can be attached to Picatinny MIL-STD-1913 and GLOCK standard weapon rails (does not fit slimline weapons, e.g. Glock 30 model). Fits the service weapons of the Police of the Czech Republic (CZ 75D). The flashlight is therefore suitable for professionals, sports and hobby shooters as well as airsoft.
All parameters of the flashlight (luminous flux, battery life, waterproofing, throw and impact resistance) are measured in compliance with the ANSI/NEMA FL 1-2009 standard.

Using the Fenix GL06 flashlight
From the factory, there may be an insulating cap inside the flashlight on the battery. Remove it from the battery before first use.
One click on any of the switches to turn the light on/off.
To turn on momentarily press and hold any switch. The flashlight will be on for as long as it is held and will go off again when the switch is released.
Strobe activation: Pressing both switches simultaneously activates the strobe. The strobe can also be activated by pressing and holding one of the switches and clicking the other switch. Press one switch again to exit instant strobe mode, or press both switches simultaneously to return to the last used output.
Intelligent overheating protection: When using the flashlight for a long time, a large amount of heat accumulates. When the light reaches a temperature of 55°C or higher, it will automatically reduce the output by a few lumens to lower the temperature. When the temperature drops below 55 °C, it will then return to standard performance.
Warning
- Do not disassemble the sealed parts in the lamp head yourself, this will void the warranty and may cause damage.
- Fenix recommends using only quality batteries.
- If you are not going to use the light for a long time, please remove the battery.
- If the glass of the flashlight is dirty with fumes after shooting, try cleaning it with fine steel wool, or try using a weapon cleaning paste.
- Prolonged use may result in wear of the O-ring. To maintain a proper water seal, replace the ring with a spare one.
- Since weapon maintenance requires the use of organic solvents, avoid contaminating key parts of the flashlight. This could damage the lamp and void the warranty.
- Regular cleaning of the electrical contacts ensures trouble-free operation of the lamp, as dirty contacts can cause the lamp to flicker, light intermittently or even not light for the following reasons:
- The battery is dead – replace it or charge it.
- The contacts inside the lamp are dirty – clean them with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol.
Warranty
Five-year warranty on the flashlight. Two years on the battery.
