The Fenix WH23R is a headlamp designed for various lighting needs, featuring a robust build and intelligent functionalities.

Function Description:

The WH23R serves as a versatile headlamp, providing both spotlight and floodlight modes for different illumination requirements. It is equipped with an Intelligent Sensor Function, allowing for hands-free operation and enhanced convenience. The headlamp is rechargeable, making it a sustainable lighting solution. Its primary function is to provide reliable and adaptable lighting in various scenarios, from outdoor activities to professional use.

Important Technical Specifications:

LEDs: Two Lumileds LEDs with a lifespan of 50,000 hours.
Color Temperature: Approximately 6000K for white light.
Working Voltage: Operates within a range of 2.85V to 4.2V, with a limit working voltage range of 2.4V to 4.35V.
Battery: Built-in 2000 mAh Li-Polymer battery pack (non-replaceable).
Charging: USB Type-C port.
Charging Time: Approximately 1.5 hours from depletion to full charge.
Intelligent Sensor Function Current Consumption: Continuous current of the infrared emission tube is 0.7mA.

Usage Features:

Accidental Activation Prevention: To prevent accidental activation, the rotary switch should be rotated counterclockwise to the "OFF" logo.
Mode Selection: The headlamp offers multiple modes, including spotlight and floodlight. It features an Intelligent Memory Circuit that recalls the last selected output for both spotlight and floodlight modes when turned on again. Similarly, it remembers the last selected on or off-state of the sensing function.
Intelligent Sensor Function: This function allows for hands-free control. It can be turned off/on by pressing and holding the electronic switch for 1.2 seconds. Note that if the lighting function is turned off by waving a hand, the product will continue to consume power, so it's recommended to use the rotary switch for complete power off when not in use for a long time.
Charging Indicators: When charging, the indicators flash from left to right. All four indicators become constant-on once charging is complete.
Intelligent Overheat Protection: To prevent damage from excessive heat, the lamp automatically steps down to a lower lumen output when it reaches a high temperature during extended use at high modes. Once the temperature drops, higher modes can be reselected.
Low-voltage Warning: When the battery voltage drops below a preset level, the headlamp automatically downshifts to a lower brightness level until it reaches Low output. In Low output mode, if the voltage is still low, one of the charging indicators blinks blue constantly to prompt the user to recharge the battery.
Battery Level Indicator: During usage, if the minimum voltage is less than 3.0V with the lamp switched on, the battery level indicator will blink to signal a poor battery level.
Optional Accessories: The WH23R is compatible with ALG-03 V2.0 and ALG-04 Helmet Clip accessories, enhancing its versatility for different mounting needs.
