As someone who has searched 100s of houses for work. People should be aware of light blindness. If you light up the inside of a structure with something with crazy high lumens, you're going to hamper your own vision. Inside anything between 600-800 is more than plenty. Outside, anything up to 1200 is more than enough. Just my experience and opinion

I agree,most guy who buy these are just into the flashlight hobby and 'want' more and more lumens for fun..i have a acebeam pokelit with 550lumens (high cri) and its plenty enough for general edc

Still invaluable for saving one or someone else's life in a self-defense standpoint or life-threatening situations! Some assailants who are drugged up are resistant or unfazed by pepper sprays or even tasers! They will never be able to resist a 6500 lumen strobe and that works better when they are drunk or high to induce dizziness and vomitting! And this many lumens is crucial in broad daylight to have such effects!

Ordered the EDC 29. The 27 is going on eBay. I wish they made a "deep carry" clip. Nitecore has the tightest pocket clips ever. I also have an EDC33...the tight clip along with the knurled body...is a pocket shredder.

@youjean8325 күн бұрын
The search or burst mode has the potential to blind attacks instead of being used for what it's advertised for. Why? Because of the short timer at around 10 seconds? Another downside is the IP54 certification. I don't think IP54 is enough for an EDC flashlight at this price range.
@briannix7345Ай бұрын
Love the edc lights as a whole, but hate the buttone. I'm a bigger guy and would constantly activate the light in my pocket, mostly in my truck or sitting. For that reason, I had to stop carrying it and ended up going with the arkfeld light. If they redesigned the switch assembly, to reduce AD, it would be on my side everyday.

Im not a fan of those tiny screws. My Tini still works after a few years but its wraped in aluminium tape (adhesive tape). My TUP resisted well because i painted it with Raptor (trunk paint). I did that after i noticed the bad shape of the Tini. Now id unscrew one screw at the time and put some adhesive on it.

I honestly can't understand people buying all these "tv remote" shaped lights... Do they really consider reading the technical data before buying? (1) Nitecore EDC27, EDC25 and now EDC29 offer impossible outputs with almost no runtime. They take built-in batteries like headlamps with low capacity but then crafted with powerful leds & drivers. That means TURBO and HIGH are useless. Would you buy an 8 cylinder engine car that uses a scooter's tank? That's the main problem, but not the only one. (2) Why led screens on EDC flashlights? To be scratched. (3) Why built-in batteries? You can't replace it so you buy another flashlight. (4) Rectangular shape fits better on the hand than circular? Actually not.
@enriccreus6024Ай бұрын
They always use the same trick: "Hey, flashlight freak! You don't have this one! Look, there's something new, you want it? You buy it."
@Trickster_24Ай бұрын
I like the direction that they took with edc25 with the no touch screen. Def an improvement. And i like the idea of the yet to be announced shorter edc23 (nightwalker gear has one already it's on the table in front of him in his edc29 review) Last major concern is the built in battery. I just bought an arkfeld ultra but they have lifetime warranty so if the battery were to die I'd send it back for them to fix or replace. If I buy a Nightcore it will be the edc35 I don't like the idea that my flashlight will be paperweight once the battery goes kapput in a couple years
@enriccreus60248 күн бұрын
@Trickster_24 I'm half agree with you. From all Nitecore EDC named lights, I would pick only the EDC35 and the EDC33. In fact, I bought the 35 a few months ago. But, EDC 27,29,25 (in all versions) and now EDC23, too, are just expensive toys for "I don't know what more to buy" collectors. And I'm sure Nitecore has good sales with this new line of flashlights, cause there's always people easy to impress with new technology ideas, no matter they worthy or useful. Just like it happened with curve shaped TVs, portable fans, normal glasses turned into sunglasses with a pair of magnets...

@west-Co_explorationАй бұрын
IMO they are totally going the wrong direction here. The biggest issue with the 27 and the 25 has been the massive size. It's too long for most of my pockets. You can't clip it on because it doesn't fit deep enough. If they made one that was 3/4 of this size or even 2/3 I would buy a couple of them. But this is impossible EDC. I had the arcfeld for a while and it was so big that it did not feel any different than a warrior mini 3. Now that I found the trustfire X3 mini, I have a flat flashlight that I can carry everyday.
