As far as the tightness of the spot goes, it’s actually a very good thing the spot is a bit larger from a tactical perspective. It is important to try and fit a person, potential suspect, bad guy etc, fully within the spot from the top of the head down to the persons feet. You want the full person including extremities to be lit up not just the face for obvious reasons. This is important up close or at a distance so although having a smaller tight spot is super cool, tactically, it is not as functionally important and quite possibly a negative. Also, having the spot be so defined and then drop off isn’t always good either. it’s much better for the spot to smooth into the outer ring beam, again for obvious reasons. Tactically, you want to know what’s going on outside of that spot. Other people, good guys, bad guys, movement, all sorts of things, all of these considerations and others are crucially important, when it goes into making a “tactical“ flashlight. So in addition to a flashlight being super cool, and awesome which I’m just as much of a nerd as anybody else when it comes to flashlights, functionality for its intended use, of course, has to take precedence. 😬👍🏼
Man, this flashlight addiction is becoming an issue; I swore when last Friday's 1100-meter thrower was delivered I was done, but this would let me give my son my MH25s, this being a very suitable replacement. I am slightly concerned about the beam color; having the a Warrior Pro and Warrior X (the ones before they upgraded to the 6500k) I might hold off; I don't like the warmer beams; Oh heck, I know I'm going to buy the darn thing, might as well just order it. Thanks for the review.
@@ChalliceofLight Yeah, I just ordered it; when I got to the Nitecore store and saw I could get it for $84.95 with their 10%, plus another 5% with the Honey app, I just hit buy now. Truth is, I held off on upgrading my P20i for the P23i because I knew an upgraded MH25 wouldn't be far behind; that took all the willpower I could muster, no way I was going through that again. Thanks again.
When it comes to testing this light, I wish just once Charles BridgeTech would say “holy shit “when he gets excited about a light. lol. Anyone who watches Charles BridgeTech knows even when he’s excited he’s pretty contained lol.
The beam color is not green atall, so if you was scared to buy don't be, its the exact same tint as the cyansky k3v2 the hot spot is 99% the same size and tint. The nitcore just has a more perfectly round hot spot the k3 is kinda smudged with artifacts
The additional sensor is not a light sensor, it’s a proximity sensor to keep the light from burning anything up close to it since the heat that come out of the light is crazy hot! I should know….. I burned a hole in my $3000 couch WITH MY P23i and my wife damn near killed me!!! LOL Note to other flash-a-holics, DONT BURN WIFES COUCH!!!
I have one coming Friday the 19th 2023 cant wait my 1st nitecore i have all fenix lights just got the ht30 holy crap it's an lep over a thousand yard throw they say a mile its unbelievable also have the olight seeker 4 pro coming..i gotta stop buying flashlights for a while its addictive
Correct, Olight had some lawsuits for people getting burned; I believe they had a recall on the Warrior for this reason; I have no doubt that Nitecore incorporated the sensor for the same reason. I like Olights' build quality but hate their magnetic proprietary charging; my pocket Olights are great (i5R, i5T, and i3Ts), but I'll never buy another with their proprietary charge cord.
I wasn't into flashlights until recently when I saw the imalent ms03 which is really bright and good quality but I don't like the power button it's too easy to accidentally turn it on which happened a couple of times and burned the holster a bit and how the battery needs to be taken out to charge it Nitecore flashlights are just great I got the MS 12 pro and the MS12 V2 and just ordered this one
Hello friend, first of all, I would like to say that you shot a nice video. I'm thinking of buying this new model MH25 PRO flashlight. What are your experiences with this model? How do you like the new LED? You can check the working time, light output, long-distance illumination, etc. What do you think? Can you recommend? Or should I look for another model?

That sensor is for accidental turn on while in a bag, pocket, etc. so it doesn’t burn a hole in it or light it on fire. Not for your eyes….

Haha, I know that feeling of "this is the last one!" very well! Yeah, beam color is not off-putting. I don't think you will have a problem with it.

This isn't the place to get help with your addiction. We're all enablers here. 😂
Damn right!@@Madman6505
Same boat, im not 100% on the colour so I some how already ordered 1 to see if I do like it

Hahaha awessome, I know exactly what you mean, w
Love his channel, great reviews :)

Thanks for the review. It would be wonderful to see a comparison video between this and the Acebeam L17. Both are real throwers.
The proximity sensor is to stop the flashlight from burning a hole in a bag or pocket as a safety feature.
oh whoa.... okay gonna get this before halloween.
Nice new torch but I still think the MH25S is one of the best torches nitecore has put out to date!!
Oh, I fully agree. It's better than this one!
@@ChalliceofLight Would love to see a video with your thoughts on how these compare (25s vs 25pro)

Oh trust me. I know!
This one does tickles the throw hound inside you for sure.. 😅
I think that light sensor is so it doesn't burn holes in bags or pockets

I totally hear you. And accidental turn-ons are a big no-no for flashlights, IMO.

All answered in the video.
Interesting way you pronounce the letter H.
It sounds like a B or a V.
How?
Almost has an LEP beam...
In thinking of getting either of this. Mh25 pro or srt7i. Which 1 is better?.
I don't like tactical rings, so I'd say this one.
@@ChalliceofLight
But, step-less ramping and a silent switch make the other option quite appealing.
wow yeah i like this beam on this light for sure lol man i wish i had a job lol
Revue construtive 👍🏻😉😉👍🏻😉
Nice review
