Fenix ​​BC21R V3.0 Front

The latest generation of the Fenix BC21R V3.0 bike headlight brings a light output of up to 1200 lumens (ANSI) with a range of up to 142 meters. It is powered by a replaceable 18650 Li-ion battery with a capacity of 2600 mAh, which is included in the package and can be charged directly in the headlight using a USB-C connector. The light source is a modern Luminus SST-40 LED. The specially designed optics create a very wide beam of light that effectively illuminates the entire area in front of the bike, providing visibility in places that are not covered by standard bike lights. The holder design allows for quick mounting and dismounting of the light on the handlebars without the need for tools, and the holder also allows for quick removal of the light, so it can be used as a powerful handheld flashlight. The holder can be used on handlebars with a diameter of 22 to 32 millimeters. The Fenix BC21R V3.0 offers a total of 5 digitally regulated power modes with a runtime of up to 33 hours, and it also features a flashing mode.

All the parameters of the headlight (light output, battery runtime, waterproofness, and range) are measured in accordance with the ANSI/NEMA FL 1-2009 standard.

Using the bike light
The light may have an insulating cover on the battery from the factory. Remove it from the battery before first use.

To turn on or off, hold the side button for about 0.5 seconds. The light will always turn on to the last mode used (except for the flashing mode), and you can switch between power modes at any time during operation by pressing the button. To switch to the flashing mode, press the button twice quickly.

Battery capacity indication (applicable only when using the 18650 Li-ion battery) - with the light off, press the button briefly, and the indicator LED on the button will illuminate for three seconds. Green illumination or flashing indicates a battery charge of more than 50%, while red illumination or flashing indicates 50% or less. The indicator LED also illuminates when the light is on, so the user is continuously informed about the battery status during cycling.

Low battery warning - if the battery capacity drops below a safe level, the light will automatically switch to lower power modes to ensure the longest possible runtime (afterward, it will not be possible to switch the light to higher modes). If the battery is critically low, the button will start blinking red. In such a case, it is recommended to recharge the light as soon as possible to prevent the built-in battery protection electronics from turning off and the light from turning off.

Intelligent heat protection - if the temperature exceeds 60 °C, the light will automatically reduce the power gradually. After cooling below this threshold, the highest power modes will be available again.

Charging
- Open the rubber cover of the USB-C connector on the bottom of the light and connect it to a computer, power bank, wall USB adapter, or car USB adapter using the provided USB cable.
- The button will illuminate red during charging and green when fully charged.
- Charging time is approximately 2 hours. The used Li-ion battery does not suffer from memory effect, so the light can be recharged at any time.
- During charging, the light can be used in emergency situations, but only in two modes: 50 and 150 lumens.
- After charging and disconnecting the charging cable, do not forget to seal the USB-C connector cover.

Warning
- Do not disassemble the sealed parts in the head of the light yourself, as this will void the warranty.
- If the protective rubber rings appear damaged after prolonged use, replace them. The rings should also be lubricated to prevent rubber erosion. By following these rules, the light will be properly protected against water.
- If the light is flashing, not switching to higher modes, or not turning on, it may be due to one of the following reasons: The battery is almost discharged, charge it or replace it.
The contacts inside the light are dirty - clean them with a cotton swab soaked in alcohol.
The battery cover is loosened, tighten it.
