Hey Nick, two things I wanted to point out for your review. First, at 5:23, you note the switch has a light on it, commenting "it's fine I guess." It sounds like you don't know that the light in the switch functions as a voltage indicator for the battery. The light will change colors to give the user some indication about how much charge the battery has left. Second, and this one is time sensitive, the manufacturer has a coupon code ("2017XMAS") that's good through jan 5 for 20%, which makes this light an even better deal. Keep up the good work and happy new year!
Nick, I suggest you try turning off any auto-contrast settings on your camera for light reviews. When you are turning on all the lights to give a sense of the difference, you can see the background change. Otherwise, lovely review as ever.
Yeah, that's one disadvantage to doing all my filming by phone. Less control.
I recently bought this flashlight on your recommendation it's a very good flashlight thanks a lot Nick.
finally a deep carry pocket clip! even though its not a rear clicky this is good
I am a mole person and I appreciate the firefly mode very much.
The final verdict tells only so much. It's the final pun(s) that really tells you what you need to know.
The only good flashlight I have is the mini maglite. Maybe it's time to upgrade.
“If you are a mole person the .5 lumens will do it for you “. LOL.
Got something for the bad column. The on/off button feels the same as the rest of the collar. In the dark you have to feel around until you find it which is a pain. I added a dab of Goop to mine to allow me to feel for it. Great light otherwise at a great price.
A black finish on lights is the most common finish, but seems like the worst choice for a tool that is often used in the dark. Probably a question of production cost. Would like to see, at least, a part of the exterior that has a luminous quality so that if you put it down when off it can been seen.
Damn, I forgot to mention that this time.
Im not even interested in flashlights... I just love your voice
That is nice. Olight m2r is my favorite. Double the price though.
A 3.7V "CR123" is actually an RCR123/16340 Li-ion, which you won't find in a grocery store. This can also use an 18350 in the short configuration, which has a capacity up to 1100 mAh. That's a lot more than a 16340, though still only about a third of the best 18650s.
Light quality is a bit of a weakness across Thrunite's whole model line. Somebody should tell them about the Nichia 219C LED. You lose a couple lumens relative to an XP-L, but it's so worth it.
I have two Neutron 2C V3. And I use the body from one of them to my black TC15. That because I prefer the traditional knurling instead of the pattern on TC15 which is a bit too slippery for my taste.
Thrunite is the best flashlight brand!
When they add a zoom feature and an even light pattern I’m all in. Till then: good review to get the juices flowing in 2018! 👍🏻👍🏻
Zoom adds bulk and hurts waterproofing. It is not popular with flashlight enthusiasts. I don't think Thrunite has ever made a light with zoom, but Fenix has a couple if you want a higher-quality light with that feature.
Zak Wilson: Zoom can be done without compromising water resistance (takes some fine engineering and execution), the fact that a specific brand never did it before is not a valid reason not to do it in the future and what “flashlight enthusiasts” like or don’t like is never a factor for me. Looking at Fenix lineup.
I didn’t say or mean that this light isn’t durable, sorry if it sounded that way. I’ve just seen several of the Olight durability tests, and I beat the crap out of mine at work ( I’m a Pediatric Intensive Care Flight Nurse). I’ve dropped that sucker out of our helicopter and airplane onto the helipad and tarmac more times than I care to remember😆
RN Mike I have dropped my olight from about 8 feet and now it doesn't work all the time. And their warranty service in germany is not great. They haven't replied for months. I hope it was just a lemon.
Not to sound like a nerd, but reflectors can make a very noticeable difference in the tint of the light. Depending on the led in use its possible that it comes off cooler from the sides of the die and warmer OTF. A narrow deep reflector would emphasize this especially if it's not an OP reflector. 🤓
Happy New Year Nick! I recently picked up the Emisar D4 3000+ lumens for $40 bucks. Turbo mode makes for a great hand warmer.
J xcellent I was just going to suggest. Nick, try out the emisar d4 the cheapest hot rod available.
Happy New Years @nickshabazz look forward to 2018 vids.
You light up my life Nick! Happy New Year, random jackass.
Hi Nick. Cool review, thank you. But what about serious light, for example Armytek Barracuda?
Hey nick great video. Is there play in battery cavity ? When you shake it does it make raddled noise. Like loose fits on different battery sizes ? Thanks.
Hmmm, now that I’m thinking about my comment, it was probably one of your previous videos that pointed out this shortcoming regarding a black finish for flashlights. I guess it’s really true that “what goes around, comes around” heeeeee.
Please review the ZT 0850 with blue carbon fiber scales!! Please!! I really wanna hear your take on its design and functionality!! Love your videos nick keep it up!!!
Did you have the neutral or cool white version? With you on the charging - only getting chargeable lights now, especially for other people.
Great review, just bought one off the back of your recommendation, oh, and a TN42 while I was at it, so if you do a TN42 review any time please say its a gem or you'll ruin me haha!
Happy New year Nick.
Happy New Year!!!
Happy new year Nick :D
Good light, but I have to say I still prefer the Olight, it’s durability and it’s charger. More expensive, buy worth it IMHO. Thanks for the review Nick.
The Olight charger ring is very nice in function, but it's also another damned cable. And as a tech guy, I'm really tired of other damned cables.
The Armytek Prime also uses a magnetic charger, and does so without requiring a proprietary battery like the Olight does S2R does. Why do you believe the Olight is more durable than the Thrunite?
Happy New Year Nick... :)
Man... I love everything about this light... Except... The light pattern!... Ugh... Good price... Good features... Love that you can convert it to a smaller light... I bet other manufacturers will copy that... Love the recharging port... It's amazing how far flashlights have come in such a short period of time... Used to be that a MagLite with 4 Dcell batteries putting out around 250 lumens was the bomb not too long ago... Now my Olight S1 mini puts out 500 lumens and can easily fit in the coin pocket of my jeans... Progress I guess...
This has my preferred beam pattern.
Thank you Nick
Used your link to get this gem 💎
Cheers

I had a TC12 that I loved, but it broke the first time I dropped it from a height of only three feet. I have done the same to my Olite and my other flash lights and they all work. So I don't really trust these.
I had a Fenix for a year that got beat up and kept on working, just too bad that I lost it. I bought the TC12 as a replacement and the exact same thing happened to me.
I have both and more, thrunite has been as durable as the rest and yes I am Leone to drop my lights and on concrete to boot.
P.S. Happy New Year!
I will certainly turn my mole neighbors on to this light.
Very nice. Happy New Year.
So is it neutral white or cool white? Thanks Nick
1:16
2018 starts off bright ha ha ha ga😂😂😂😂😂😂
U spelled bright wrong lol
Wyatt Skwermin could have been the beer talking.. ??
Wyatt Skwermin *you.
What was the name of the small silver light you used in size comparison? I can't understand your accent sometimes, and with names it gets weird
he compared it to the Eagletac d25a
@ NICK This the 2C III ? OR just 2c
Nice Seamaster
Currently, $42 at Amazon with a $3 online coupon and free shipping.
You sounded a little surprised that they sent it to you after you said you would give it an honest review. I'm surprised that every reviewer doesn't make that claim, because it's the only credible stance to take in any review.
Maybe I'm not as cynical, but I'm only interested in honest reviews. I won't name the channel, but one reviewer said: "I'm going to promote these products, because I have to make a living." No excuse in my opinion.
Landrew0 Yeah, I asked one channel why they never bothered to disclose when they were sent something and the response was essentially “Everyone knows we’re all sent these”. Garbage excuse.
Not into flashlights but I'm into shabazz reviews so I digress 😂.
Go outside lets see it in the dark lol
I need a flashlight that has:
-zoom function
-Multiple modes
-2 switches for mode and on/off (or memory function with 1 switch)
-18650 compatibility
Anyone know of a light with those features?
Micro USB in 2018... c'mon manufacturers.
Just about the only thing that can make one sound more moronic than saying "irregardless" is using "gift" as a verb.
while you are right in that irregardless is nonstandard, gift can be a verb.
Do a giveaway!!!!
