I have had this for 3 weeks now. I absolutely love this light. As you stated the ui takes a couple times to use to get used to it. However, once you're past that it's extremely easy to use and like second nature. I just love the features and the ui now. Good vid also.
Great video and nice to see real world tests! I do have a comment on the sign at 1:00 though. You may have thought about this already, but street signs are often made with retro reflectors, basically turning them into semi-mirrors. Unfortunately, that can skew distances. I do love seeing beam shots in a little more light though, that definitely provides some variety!
Great point. I did think about that, but of course it was after the fact. Trying to figure out a new solution for future videos. Thanks for the comment.
How do you like it compared to the Olight Arkfeld? I just bought the Arkfeld UV when they had their summer sale and like it (couldn't pass it up for $42 with 2 smaller light thrown in for free), but I'm always looking for an excuse to buy more gear. 😂
they are very different lights. Arkfeld is a lot smaller, more multipurpose with the uv and laser, not tactical, much less light output... Depends what you want. The nitecore is a lot brighter and has that oled display and two tailswitches but its not as waterproof as the arkfeld and bigger
To what Mike said. They do act as almost two different lights for me. I've been carrying the Arkfeld pro basically since the day I got it. However, if you need serious output go with the NITECORE. It makes the Arkfeld almost feel like a novelty. However if you're a mechanic or HVAC tech having a UV emitter always on the ready may be worth its weight in gold.
Surefire stiletto Pro 2. The candela on that light is insane! 35,000
@@jasonwagemann9386 I reached out and they didn't want to collaborate. Otherwise, I wish I had the financial wherewithal to buy a $340 flashlight.

If it were about an inch shorter I might consider. I like no more than 4.5 inches in pocket. Very nice light though.
@@mrgauth I get it. What do you carry currently?
Solid output and throw
For sure. If they got high CRI 5K color I'd be completely sold.
