Nitecore E4K Flashlight Kit Review!

Here is the all new Nitecore E4K Flashlight kit! This runs on a 21700 USB cell which can be charge straight from the battery itself. The type C port did not charge over 1A in my tests. So it will take about 4 hours to charge the cell. The four Cree XP-L2 LED's provide a large wide flood beam performance. This light can put out 4400 lumens on turbo. This is insane for a small compact light. This is great for EDC too. This kit comes with everything you need in the box to get started outside the box. This really was a great pleasure to test and review. See link below to the nitecorestore.com plus you can save $$ using my special discount code as well:

Very helpful review. Thank you. Your night shots are the most helpful “beam shots” I’ve seen to see how lights work in real world.

Nice review as always. You can double click from off to get to moonlight, triple click from off to get to turbo, or press and hold from off to get the memorized level.

Great review Charles as usual.. Thanks for your diligent work .. I got a Sofirn SP36 under the tree -thanks to your videos ;).... Wow, I love it too. Thing is a beam of destruction.. LoL My son got a Wowtac W1 under the tree aa well. He is also very impressed.. Especially its size! ...crazy. Yea Ive been a sofirn fan since I bought my SP33.. not even knowing what I had until you taught me how to click er into “turbo”. The rest is history my friend!

[@CharlesBridgTec]

Glad you like them. Thanks for the support and watching!

@@CharlesBridgTec oh for sure.. (uh oh.. here he goes) LoL Your video content transcends IMO.. You have the uncanny ability to draw us out of our rat race and into your world. ...distance. These video’s definitely help me wind me down after a long day.. PS -I do some screen acting/live performance myself Its in the way you develop these characters from out of every day objects.. Also the subtle descriptions of landscape. LoL Well all that and that the in depth flash light reviews are spot on!. -pun intended LoL Flashlights are only so interesting on their own.. Even if your a flashlight geek like myself.. haha This is why your view numbers are up where they are.. and climbing. Nice work Mr Charles! Hey?.. Hey, if you dont mind where do you film most of your outdoor clips? NC? FLA? You strike me as NC native but, no drawl.. ? haha ;) That’s my guess anyway... FLA 2nd... Keep up the good work Mr @charlesBridgetech. ✌🏽

@@CharlesBridgTec Argh! California.. I should have known that.. Of course! Thank you for replying.. The video’s and buying different lights are a lot of fun.. That Key chain light takes the trophy IMO.. You can hide it you hand, hit the button and light up a city block like mid-afternoon. Haha Question is.. Where does EDC portable lighting technology go next...

It's a sign of old age Charles when you have a hard time opening a box like that it's a sign of old age but I love that flashlight the most favorite part of that flashlight is that button that power button I love that power button it's big you be able to feel it in your pocket not like somebody other ones it's very awesome thank you for sharing this wonderful product and a great company to go with it 👍🏆👍

[@bluesjunkie69]

Another good review Charles. Good job! I like the fact that you use the same park with the same distances to review all of your flashlights. This way I have been able to compare beam shots and distances of several flashlights from your reviews. Love the oversized side button on the e4k. But no external USB charging port on the flashlight is a touch inconvenient. The worst thing about the e4k is that Turbo lasts only from about 25 - 45 seconds!!! ... and then tanks considerably from 4,400 all the way down to a very shocking and disappointing 1050 lumens. That's totally, unacceptably horrible! Nitecore really needs to up their game on this one. Better to go with the Acebeam L30 Gen II's and it's 3 minutes of turbo, the Klarus XT21X Pro's 1.6 minutes of turbo or the Sofirn SP33S XHP70.2's 1.8 minutes of turbo, which presently are my top three flooders, all reasonably sized, well built with good range, have good thermal management, a side button and a well defined, strong beam with lotsa spill. They also have good run times in high mode. Just my 2 cents ...

Im planning to buy a t4k, it is also a 4k lumens but seeing this e4k review of yours changed my mind. I like the fact that it can easily be replaced its li-ion batt. I need to twist the tailcap thou it's weird. so charles I can't half press it when changing modes?

[@CharlesBridgTec]

No you can't half press thru modes. Thanks for watching!

[@buboycabelin4467]

Same here 👍

[@trmcghee9845]

Either this light or the Wowtac A4. I just can't do the BSS V4 (Side port looks a bit flimsy)

[@CharlesBridgTec]

Depends on what beam type you want for the E4k is more of a combination beam type and the WowTac A4 is a thrower. Thanks for watching!

[@trmcghee9845]

Thank you Charles. I'll probably go with the flood of the E4K. Love 21700

[@nemesis91101]

Charles, where you getting the 20a discharge rating? I saw the label as you spun the battery, said max 15a. That's still really awesome for a protected cell

[@CharlesBridgTec]

The OEM cell under the wrapper is a 20A cell. It has very powerful protection at 15A limits the cell. Its a habbit of mine to quote OEM specs sometimes. Thanks for watching!

nice review Charles...how long does turbo last?

[@CharlesBridgTec]

It was lasting about 45 seconds in the night shots in cold weather. Thanks for watching!

[@paulwilson915]

kind of misleading Charles manual shows turbo last for 30min 2:36

[@CharlesBridgTec]

Look at the specs I posted in video again, you will see in the small print *That 30 minutes TURBO runtimes was achieved without temperature regulation. Take care.

HI Charles, whats the temperature on this light in Kelvins? Or how would you rate it? Cool white, neutral white or warm white? Thanks

[@CharlesBridgTec]

About 5200k. Thanks for watching!

[@dlaka]

Great light great review. Can you please tell me how this light compares to lumintop odf30c?

[@CharlesBridgTec]

Well the Lumintop is more of a combination beam type which the Nitecore is more fllod beam type. Thanks for watching!

[@haywoodjablomi2529]

Which do you prefer between this and the i4000r? Can't decide between them

[@CharlesBridgTec]

Depends on size at this point for the i4000R is bigger. Thanks for watching!

[@youtubeuser5424]

I think the i4000 is more of a tactical light as well with the tail switch.

It looks like a pretty good torch but it is completely spoilt with a non-standard 2170 battery, they definitely should have a standard design with a proper USB charging port built into the torch to take a standard 2170 battery..
