Compact and versatile, the HL17R delivers up to 500 lm, features dual general and Scene lighting (red/blue/RGB) and converts quickly to a right-angle or clip-on light via magnetic quick-release; built-in 1000 mAh battery and USB-C charging.
The Fenix HL17R packs broad functionality into a very small package. With a peak output of 500 lumens and a beam reaching 100 m, it pairs bright performance with a feather-light body (approx. 65 g including battery). Its multi-use architecture allows headband mounting, quick conversion to a right-angle flashlight via magnetic release, and clip or magnetic surface mounting for hands-free operation. The rotatable light ring and dual controls enable straightforward operation, even with gloves.
Scene lighting offers five effects (including red, red/blue flash and RGB/Aurora) for signaling or ambience, and gesture-sensing permits near-range on/off control with a simple hand wave. The built-in 1000 mAh battery supports long runtimes (up to 96 hours in Eco), with charge level indicator and low voltage warning. Lightweight, flexible and easy to use, the HL17R is an excellent choice for commuting, light outdoor activities, quick interventions and everyday carry scenarios.
