[@Nitecore_Jim]

Happy new year Charles!! Thank you for the detailed review and information😉 Enjoy!

Happy New Year, 2025! Thanks for watching!

It's everything you want in a flashlight. Compact but very powerful and a great beam profile. Another nitecore great. The style reminds of the wurkkos TD03. Great review Charles 👍

[@CharlesBridgTec]

YW! Thanks for watching as well!

[@Nitecore_Jim]

Yea! Happy you like it!

[@onceKilos]

i really wish this EDC line (31, 33, 35) from nitecore came with replaceable batteries instead, they have some awesome features but they are basically disposable once the battery dies

[@icarrymyrevolverinsingleac9564]

Yeah no go for me for that reason It just doesn’t make sense

[@abtcup]

That would depend on how much you use the light. You can get years of use before the battery goes bad. I mean your mobile phone and various other electronic devices use non replaceable batteries...and you can get years of use out of it.

[@Nitecore_Jim]

Thank you for the attention! The built-in battery design aims to achieve an ultra-compact form factor while delivering exceptional performance. In the future, we also plan to introduce a version with a replaceable battery.

[@onceKilos]

@@abtcup but a phone is made that way so you have to replace it, and the next one you buy usually is a better and upgraded one that your previous. a flashlight is a tool that should not be replaced because the battery just died

This Flashlight with a fullmode Sideswitch would be perfect for me!!!❤ Thanks for this video👍👍👍

Hi Charles. Please can you do a review of the Olight Baton Turbo, i have one myself, I'd love to see how it looks against the tree of life etc! 😊

[@CharlesBridgTec]

If they send it to me. I am finishing up on the Arkfeld Ultra though. Thanks for watching!

[@sonnymontigny4733]

It's a great light, all Nitecore's are, but in my opinion, it's pretty much the duplicate of the EDC 33! The 33 even has 500 more lumens! Not sure what Nitecore was thinking on this one! 🤷

[@CharlesBridgTec]

The EDC31 is smaller than the EDC33. Thanks for watching!

[@louisarturo5625]

I personally think they're releasing the same exact light for the past 6months. With all this UHi emitter.

[@mmhmm9271]

I never would've bought the edc33 as it's too big, whereas the edc31 is *just* small enough that I'm okay with it. Well worth the tradeoff imo, edc33 is too fat and heavy to carry around in my pocket.

[@BotakIsBald]

They should made it thrower single led..... Like edc 23 and removeable battery...!

[@louisarturo5625]

@@BotakIsBald you're definitely talking about the MT2C pro

[@Avtandil2004]

Super flashlight!🔥🔥🔥

[@martinchalani6068]

I hope something bigger than the edc37 will come. I thought the 15 sec. luminShield power on the edc35 was very little. 7 sec. on the edc31 is very little. I'm thinking about the edc35, but I was waiting for something even more powerful. This is very weak. Nitecore makes a lot of small and compact lights. They try to make smaller and smaller lights with high power, it's very difficult. I want something more powerful but still compact.

Nice light, but deadweight in the wilderness when the battery is exhausted.

So much smaller though. I'm glad I only got into flashlights a few weeks ago, mt1a pro and edc31 are my first torches and the size/power ratio of both are crazy.

@Nitecore_Jim i believe adding a thread and removable cap wont change much of the size.

@@edwinchw Yes, moving forward, we will refine the design to ensure that functionality and convenience remain unaffected.
