Nitecore EDC27-3000 lumens, OLED display, USB-C

Good overall light, somewhat reasonable price, but I had to return it because of the accidental turbo and lack off/ weak proximity sensor. Within the first day, I burned a small hole in my pants because turbo got pressed. Synthetic pants will literally melt within 2 seconds or turbo apparently. I've ordered the new EDC 23 which has a physical lock switch and bought the rovyvon e90. The e90 has a slightly worse beam pattern in my opinion, but I feel far more confident that it won't set my pants on fire (although the sensor can be extra sensitive). Additionally it feels smaller and equally robust and has a few extra functions which is nice.

So as a EDC flashlight this is nice and fairly compact. The display is useful and informative. I have been using it for a while now and it serves its purpose well for just having to find my way in dark room or just to find something in the dark. The brightness options are helpful especially if you have roommates you don't want to bother when you are looking for something. Yes your phone is a good option but it doesn't give you 3k lumen strobe when you choose to prank a friend thats afraid of the police.

Well, initially I was very pleased with this flashlight. There are still many things I like about it. However, the one thing I do not like ultimately has made me throw it with great frustration into the donation bin at the local church thrift store. Things I liked: - Shape and Size > perfect for keeping it on my belt in a slimline holster alongside my Leatherman multitool and Bit Kit. - Brightness and Strobe > really bright, multiple levels of luminosity, strobe was super cool and more useful than initially anticipated. - Position of switches > on the end, easy to actuate in numerous grips, I prefer end switches to side - Belt clip > strong, good size, firm hold but not so much that drawing the flashlight is difficult. Will not allow flashlight to jar loose under physical activity if clipped in good spot. Things I did not like: - Switch configuration to select different light levels or activate/ deactivate the lock feature to prevent unintentional activation of the lights. This is the thing that really killed this flashlight's reliability and utilization. One must depress the primary switch button only part way to select the light levels. This is very difficult to achieve given the sensitivity of the button and lack of tactile feedback that allows the light level selection to be accurately done without going too far and shutting the light off. This configuration also results in undesired light level switches occurring randomly. The penultimate failure of this button configuration is trying to deactivate the lock consistently and rapidly when needed. Even after numerous times confirming my technique with the instructions and practicing the procedure many, many times, there were waaaay too many times that it would not deactivate the lock and I had to wait for the screen to clear then try again. This is beyond frustrating when you are holding an awkward body position and need light RIGHT NOW but must dork around with this over and over and over trying to get the exact timing and button placement to respond. There were only two times that I did not have to go through this experience. EVERY OTHER TIME was agonizing and infuriating. To ensure my technique was not the issue I have given three additional training sessions followed with a field deployment with real life use scenarios - EPIC FAILS. It just does not work in a way that makes it quick to deploy and have light in short order. A couple months ago I even started carrying a small back-up O-light for when I get frustrated and need to get past the lock and just have light. Hopefully Nitecore will amend this issue in future models. I would definitely get that version.

Great edc light. Rock solid, great feature set!

Bonne autonomie très bon éclairage

Wat een fantastische zaklamp, zodra je hem uitpakt dan weet je direct dat je écht een mooi stukje techniek te pakken hebt. Ligt heerlijk in de hand en er komt een onwijze hoeveelheid licht uit. De strobe functie is met een aparte knop te activeren, waarbij de 2 knoppen ook nog allebei 'half' ingedrukt kunnen worden en daarmee eigen functies bedienen. Even slikken bij het afrekenen, maar heel blij mee

Produit robuste, pratique et conforme à la description mais attention peu se déclencher dans la poche , malgré le système ingénieux de "verrouillage" , il y a risque de brûlure. Mais dans un EDC type poche maxpé, ou accroché au sac en mode molle c est impeccable ! Je suis fan !!!
