Common questions
Is the Fenix PD26R ACE rechargeable?
Yes. The PD26R ACE charges over USB-C via a hidden port under a silicone cover on the body tube, and a USB Type-C cable is included. The supplied ARB-L18-1600 18350 cell can also be swapped for a spare if you need to keep running in the field.
How long does the PD26R ACE run at maximum brightness?
Turbo (1,300 lumens) runs 1 hour 2 minutes, High (350 lumens) runs 2 hours 13 minutes, Medium (100 lumens) runs 8 hours 35 minutes, Low (30 lumens) runs 27 hours, and Eco (1 lumen) runs up to 556 hours on a single charge.
How bright is the PD26R ACE and how far does the beam reach?
Maximum output is 1,300 lumens with a 354-meter beam distance and a peak luminous intensity of 31,404 candela. The beam is tuned for duty and EDC use with a useful hotspot for distance and enough spill to keep close work readable.
Is the PD26R ACE waterproof?
The body is rated IP68 — sealed against dust and submersion beyond 1 meter of water. Impact rating is 1 meter, so it will take heavy rain, shallow wading, and routine drops on hard surfaces.
Does it have a tactical tail switch?
Yes. The PD26R ACE uses the ACE-family hybrid layout: a tactical tail switch for instant momentary on, constant on, and strobe, plus a hidden side switch on the neck for cycling through the five output levels and SOS. You keep tactical access without losing the lower modes for EDC work.
What comes in the box with the PD26R ACE?
One ARB-L18-1600 rechargeable 18350 battery, a USB Type-C charging cable, a belt holster, a lanyard, and two spare O-rings. No separate charger is needed — the light charges directly over USB-C.
