Customizable, Compact, and Cutting Edge Flashlight | Nitecore EDC25

[@AzoneDefense]

I wish these EDC 25's and 27's came with the red-light feature like the P18

[@jaminjim44]

Absolutely should have a red! A UV would be cool to, shoot their is another new one angleyes or something that has both uv/red and a 3000mah battery and fully waterproof I want to say. I ordered the EDC25 wishing I had ordered the EDC27 kinda. Theirs features I like on each lol but had to chose one and that’s what I went with. The angleyes I didn’t see till after I purchased the 25. Still think o would have went with the 25 idk why but just would have. Great video! Thanks!! ✌️

[@The_Sword_Saint]

With the Self-Defense-Strobe-Mode, and Half-Lockout-Mode, this has instantly become my new favorite EDC rechargeable flashlight [until they make the next best thing]. Keep up the good work @NitecoreStore.

[@NitecoreStore]

you betcha!

[@17cmmittlererminenwerfer81]

Problem is, these ship in locked mode, and the unlock procedure doesn't work like the instructions say, or like it's printed on the side of the light. So you're stuck with random button pressing for five minutes before the light actually works. *Here's how it actually works...* To half-lock: 1. Turn the light on by fully pressing the small power button down until it clicks. Let it go. 2. Half-press and hold the power button. *DON’T press all the way in until it clicks.* 3. Lock light flashes once. *Stop pressing!* To fully-lock: 1. Turn the light on by fully pressing the small power button down until it clicks. Let it go. 2. Half-press and hold the power button. DON’T press all the way in until it clicks. 3. Lock light flashes once. *DON’T stop pressing!* 4. Lock light flashes second time. Now stop pressing. To unlock: 1. Half-press quickly once, then half-press again immediately and hold. *DON’T press all the way in until it clicks.* 2. While you're holding the button halfway down, the blue lights light up sequentially. *Hold until all four are lit, and the light has come on in low mode.*

Good looking out my man Peace

[@kevinraney5761]

The instructions say first thing to charge it and when you charge it, it unlocks and works properly

[@pinkyfish64]

The EDC 27 and 25 are amongst my favourite edc lights. However, I thought when I first got the 27, it was faulty as it kept turning on in my pocket when I thought it was locked. When you charge these lights, it disables the lockout feature, so you need to lockout again when charging is complete. No one tells you this.

[@littlejimmy7402]

The "Pizza Peeeza" thing kills me. I've been counting thousandths forever, somehow I think it's gonna stop now.

[@smky143]

Still haven't gotten my 27 back from repair for the faulty button.

[@NitecoreStore]

Hey, I'm sorry to hear that, that sucks, try and shoot [e-mail] an email and we can probably help expedite that!

[@thegoot216]

I love my 27 but I'm definitely buying the 25 👍

[@quickcuts3000]

i see Sysmax screwed up the yet lockout again. the 27 was great, but the lockout gymnastics made it suck. not to mention, the proximity sensor didn't work. i see the 25 still has the stupid half lock out.

[@ogiyao8079]

For me, I like the edc27 a lot better due to my required usages.

[@jhc3173]

Wish It had physical lock switch like EDC33 then You won't need proximity sensor and safer in the pocket

[@NitecoreStore]

ooo, not a bad idea!

[@loganramsay378]

Plz make a mini version that'd be so cool

[@bayouflats5054]

I appreciate your review, that you didn’t try to avoid or rationalize the obviously crappy clip. Maybe when they get smart, I’ll think more on this. Right now, my NU11 is a much better EDC at $14 for two

[@reefnotrobbie]

I’ve been looking at one of these since I first heard about it’s release, and this video has taught me things that I didn’t know. This is an excellent overview. People need to know all of these things before spending their hard earned cash on a big purchase and you’ve covered everything. Nice one.

[@TopDog8762]

As I set here holding my beloved EDC27 I mourn the deletion of OLED display on the newer version, How Dare You Nitecore! 🤣🤣 What the hell? My EDC27 has No problem stepping down with the Proximity (bounce) sensor. I am calling shenanigan's. Long Live the EDC 27!

[@NitecoreStore]

Well you didn't hear it for me but another reason I didn't consider it a true upgrade is there may or may not be a true upgrade (with screen) in the works, or maybe there isn't, who knows

[@Rzombie23]

The screen is the main reason i have a EDC27, personally I’m sick of the little indicator lights for remaining runtimes.

[@cdc19845]

I didn't get the Paracord lanyard with carabiner with mine.

[@DJJAW11]

... Why not replaceable batterys 🥴. (Other material/color options?).

[@RonChamblee-pp6oh]

I would love to receive it

[@danielguerrero2426]

I do enjoy your videos. My complaints are only with the proximity sensor. Piiiiza piiiiizza. 😊

[@NitecoreStore]

Fair enough!

[@alialbeloshi5425]

I want same this for my work 😢

[@44bulldogitsmypet]

No more screen?

[@iosonoi.7132]

Boo

[@quickcuts3000]

the screen on the 27 was a soft weak area that flexed when squeezed. glad it's gone on this one.

[@CATHOLIC_KNIGHT73]

The screen scratches overtime and gives us OCD lol!

[@Reliable_Guy4]

is there a compatible rail mount for this?

[@roddenby]

I’d like to see some type of torture test. I haven’t had much luck with nitecore reliability.

[@alextaplin7354]

IP rating is comparatively very poor. Most quality lights these days can be submerged with no problem, this can only stand up to light rain.

[@ssijon]

Whats the model number again?

[@danielguerrero2426]

how many more generations need to be made before Nitecore trashes the proximity sensor???? How about that TM9k pro? Does the proximity sensor completely disable lumen shield if a bit of lint or whatever ends up on the lens? Would I need to carry lens wipes with me? Would lumen shield be disabled at all times in rain and snow?

[@foxtrot22charlie]

Is it intrinsically safe? I work around expensive gas 💥

[@NitecoreStore]

If used properly, yes, it is, but don't set it on something hot like an engine, and try not to ignite anything with how bright it can be!

[@AllAboutAdventures]

U got convex and concave backwards. Convex rises like a hill, and concave dips low like a valley

[@NitecoreStore]

Yikes, yeah, I definitely did! There were a lot of lines I had to rerecord. EDC27 has been burnt into my memory because of how much everyone likes it and it's muscle memory to say that instead of EDC25, and more technical terms definitely made this a tricky film shoot!

[@allemander]

I came here to the comments to point out this mistake but now I don’t have to, so I won’t! 😆

[@jaysonbagsic]

Not IP68 😞

[@NitecoreStore]

Yeah, I definitely should have added that onto my 'not my favorite' list, although it was raining while I got my beam shots so the IP54 is at least true

[@realkoly]

IP is just what it is certified for, so technically it could be much more resistant, just not tested for it

[@loosebacontrails666]

Sweeeet, but I’m more excited about the MT1C pro!! Where’s that video?! 😎

[@NitecoreStore]

Coming soon!

[@alextaplin7354]

This looks amazing but it is just far too expensive to have a non-replaceable cell, bad light colour characteristics, annoying proximity sensor and a comparatively very poor IP rating.

[@liameneuk]

That could be a downgrade for some kind of emergency.

[@ElektroMoog]

pizza piiizzzaaaa... 😂😂😂😂😂

[@NitecoreStore]

I love me some Little Cesar's, what can I say

[@PanlasangMotour]

15 secs only for 3000 lumens :/ hmm

[@mousec2600]

Your conclusion was a muddled mess. After citing your opinion of the superior functionality of the 25 over the 27 in nearly all instances, to deny the upgrade status was just silly given everything else you said.

[@bdouglas]

Replaceable batteries or nope. Ridiclious on the high-drain lights.

[@hugowells3052]

On a light that shape and thickness a removable battery would have been incredibly difficult it implement

[@quickcuts3000]

nah. i don't care about replaceable batteries. go comb your neck beard.

[@ericguner]

Check out the Rovyvon E30. It has the duel battery you are looking for.

[@BOOSTEDLASER]

I LIKE NITECORE.I WISH THEY MADE SOME LIGHTS WITH NO USELESS/SILLY BURST MODES. ( OR AT LEAST A MODE THAT DIDNT HAVE THEM) WITH JUST ROCK SOLID REGULATION AT EACH LEVEL. NO USELESS SOS/STROBE. A LIGHT (OR MODE) THAT WAS 3-4 STAGES ALL START TO END REGULATED. AN 1860 CAN BE 700(ISH) FOR AT LEAST AND HOUR.350 FOR MANY HOURS.100 FOR 7-8 HOURS. AND A LOW WITH A COUPLE OF LUMENS. MY ENTIRE TEAM WOULD BUY THAT LIGHT. I GET THAT THESE HIGH LUMEN NUMBERS SELL TO SOME PEOPLE....EVEN WHEN SAID MODE IS 5-10 SECONDS ( THAT ALSO WASTES PRECIOUS BATTERY) FOR MANY PROs...WE DONT WANT OR NEED THESE BURSTS/SOS/STROBE. THE THOUGHT OF A SLIM/LIGHT 21700 LIGHT WITH THE ABOVE STATS...MAKES ME EXCITED. NITECORE...PLEASE MAKE THIS TYPE OF LIGHT ( OR MODE) YOU WONT HAVE TO DEAL WITH HEAT ISSUES ...THIS WOULD MAKE THINGS EASIER FOR YOU :) OUTSIDE OF "HDS" NOBODY MAKES LIGHTS LIKE WE WANT. PLEASE DO ,NITECORE !!!!!!!!!! I WILL POST ON MY GEAR CHAN,KZbin AND EVERY MILITARY SITE IF YOU MAKE 1 OR A FEW THAT DO THIS. SEMPER FI GUNNY I HAVE OWNED/TESTED 100S OF LIGHTS ( EVEN GOT A FEW CONTRACTS IN THE USA FOR CHINESE MFG) FEEL FREE TO SEND ME LIGHTS LIKE THIS TO TEST/REVIEW OR HELP YOU DESIGN WE WANT : NO : BURST /TURBO SOS OR STROBE. ROCK SOLID REGULATION WE CAN COUNT ON. MAYBE 4 MODES. COULD BE A TAC LIGHT THAT STARTS ON HIGH OR EDC STYLE . HA 3. PLEASE MAKE THIS LIGHT.THEY WILL SELL. FACT FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME

[@jeffdur1330]

I'm so sick of these crappy nitecore lights.

[@Rares.E]
