Availability: Discontinued

DiscontinuedWurkkos no longer makes this light; what dealers have left is the last of it. Its current replacement is Wurkkos FC11C.

An update of the FC11, the FC13 added Anduril 2 firmware and a sturdier build to the same budget high-CRI formula. Wurkkos has since folded the line into the FC11C.

What owners report

Wurkkos FC13/4 sources reviewed

The FC13 is the FC11's enthusiast sibling: same general idea — 18650, USB-C, magnetic tail — but with Anduril 2 and more throw. Reviewers call it a great budget pocket rocket at around $32 to $35, with Wurkkos's usual solid build and an illuminated switch that several found worth the money on novelty alone.

The honest framing reviewers give is that it's the enthusiast pick where the FC11 is the general recommendation. Anduril 2 isn't as approachable as the FC11's conventional interface, so if you're buying a light for someone who won't configure it, this isn't the one. One reviewer had no success with the power bank function on the FC13s variant, and the USB-C port cover, while very secure, needs deliberate pressure to seat properly.

Consistently praised

Anduril 2 with full ramping and configurability at a budget price
More throw than the FC11 while keeping the same practical format
Illuminated switch that makes it findable in the dark
USB-C charging that works well, with solid Wurkkos build quality
Ramps from a genuine moonlight up to a large output

Common complaints

Anduril 2 is less approachable than the FC11's conventional interface
One reviewer couldn't get the power bank function working on the FC13s
The USB-C port cover needs deliberate pressure to seat
Recommended for enthusiasts specifically, not as a universal pick
Easy to confuse with the FC11 and FC13s in listings

Questions people ask

FC11 or FC13?: FC11 if you want a simple light that works out of the box, or are buying for someone else. FC13 if you want Anduril 2 and more throw and are happy to learn the interface.
What's the FC13s?: A variant of the same light. Note that a reviewer couldn't get its power bank feature to work, so don't buy specifically for that.
Is the illuminated switch useful or just a gimmick?: Genuinely useful — it makes the light findable in a dark room, which is the same reason people like aux LEDs. Several reviewers mentioned it unprompted as a highlight.
Does it come with a battery?: The kit version does. Check which you're ordering; the bare-light price is lower by roughly the cost of the cell.
