This light would be a blessing for me in the workplace.I work for a company that houses at risk/ adjudicated youth. I work as a maintenance tech. A lot of emergency calls happen after hours. Whether it be a power outage to a broken window. To have this light handy would make my job so much easier working in the dark.
Congrats yours is the winning comment! Please reach out to hello@nitecorelights.com with this screenshot and we’ll walk you through the rest of the way 👍
Get the P20ix it has self defense strobe mode and get this for your secondary light… ALWAYS carry two lights on duty in case one stops working or you drop it or break it etc
Nice improvements in an already great light. I use EDC27 as my EDC. As a consultant, I travel frequently and I always take this light with me for being easy to use and for the tactical reasons/self defense. Since I already own the EDC27, the improvements are not enough to justify an upgrade, but make sense to buy the new version if you don't have any of them yet. The only improvement I am not a fan of is the single action button with a programmable action. I prefer the double action, this way I always have both options available, and don't have to remember what I programmed. Thanks for the great content!
Been using the edc27 for sometime now. I keep it on me everyday as my go to personal protection in my clinic. This edc25 would be great backup or vice versa. Been a fan of your reviews. Everything is well explained and very convincing.
This would be a perfect upgrade / replacement for my old TUP with port flap and display gone. Also finally going from micro USB to Type-C. Most significantly safety wise commuting late night. Hope I can get this blessing. Thank you for another awesome review!
I saw a video on this channel and the content creator actually admitted to a mistake, owned up to it, and made it right. Been a fan ever since. I think it was the Acebeam M2 short. I thought that was really good, alot of folks have trouble with owning up to little mistakes. much love
Tested this EDC25@ the roadshow yesterday. I love these buttons and the beam as compared to EDC27. Nice to meet you MJ and your team thanks for the wonderful explanation of each individual light function.
20 years ago, tactical rechargeable lights lasted a max of 1 hour. I carried 3 lights to make sure I got through a shift. 100 lumens was considered good then too. Lights have come a long way.
This light has always been on my wish list as it meets my needs as a small personal light, will stay in my pocket and will be used inside containers, hallways, room checking and office checking.
This light will be great to have when doing quick aircraft inspection at the apron area, slim and easy to carry by clipping to be trousers pocket, no need for holster. At home, I'll attach a lanyard and use it when walking the dog at nite. I'll even bring it overseas for vacations since it is easy to carry.
Great video 📹 👍!!! I have been waiting for this light. 28 years of law enforcement experience taught me that you can never have too many light options ✨️ 💛! Thank you! Keep making great lights!
Another comment for the algorithm, im glad i found your channel because i love how brutally honest you are with explaining the light and its functions.. not just selling a product like its the best thing in the world and you can make it work for any situation when clearly things like this are made to play a certain role in your tool kit.. its not designed to be a full out carry flashlight to be used for hours at a time.. its perfect for my situation where i use my light a few times a night but when i use it its for a good reason..lol
This is a fantastic light for my security checks during night shift and patrol. The best part is the light helps keep my carrier as slick as possible. I like the simple display that can be read quickly with colored indicators whereas the EDC27 relied on text that is very small. The EDC25 is a very interesting light.
This light is so slick, I would use it in my very dark workshop, and to walk home as my shop is in not a safe area. A super bright flash light is a good defense to buy you time to get away
Perfect light for me as an aircraft technician. Slim so it won’t get snagged when I’m going in tight spaces and that turbo is great to inspect the horizontal stabilizer. ❤🤙🏼
I would use this light as my edc when I have to go to the UK as the flat design will be easy to carry and where I am has very little surrounding lights at night so this will come in very handy.
As a network administrator,I always need light for something. This would be a great light for working inside dark server racks and inspecting communication rooms.
I think this is a great improvement over the EDC27 for two reasons, 1- the use of UHi leds for more efficiency and throw, and also a more neutral white over the SST40, and 2- the screenless design. I love screens on flashlights, but they are probably more useful in an EDC/enthusiast/civil flashlight rather than on a tactical one, where every extra piece that can break is a risk for the user. Great job on improving an already great product!
I‘d use it daily for work! I‘m a train conductor and in the morning it’s part of the routine to check the train from front to back and for that I need a good flashlight.
This would be a light that would be on me at all times, one of the jobs I do is as a technician, and I have to move about in dark confined places sometimes and the slim profile is awesome.
exactly right, if built in is not suitable, just pick a non built in version. It's not the light's fault, it's just designed for a user that prefers built in.
9:38 Ya agree with the part on the built in battery. It all boils down to personal preference and need. Though I prefer removable batteries, but built in batteries are totally acceptable for me when it comes to non-tubular form factors like the EDC25 and LR70.
Perfect light for every day quick use when doing aircraft safety checks on emergency quick response rescue flights and as a back up to my primary. Also would "shine" in security checks when getting in or out of vehicles especially in rural or sketchy areas.
Love it! The indicators instead of the screen seems to me like the rigth path. Would love to have this light for my EDC, specially for long walks at night through the city.
Was waiting for your review. I just bought the 27 and compared it with my MT2A, I’m still amazed by this latter one. 90g only, throw even more (not a flowder though) but I just love this little flashlight. To the point I might not keep the 27 for now. The MT2A is not perfect (lack of ergonomic with only one switch, no strobe) but the value of Lumens per grams is unmatched for me
This would be an awesome light for me in the events business. I am often having to navigate backstage or under stages during shows so I need a close quarters flashlight. The slip and discrete profile is also perfect because a lot of our events are corporate and a bulky torch doesn't fit into the formal dress code.
I love that they fixed the Turbo button. Just wish they'd do something with the hugely protruding Power button. My EDC27 kept unlocking and turning on in my pocket. It happened so often I had to stop carrying it. The proximity sensor is a nice addition, but 500 lumens is still too much. Maybe it's enough to prevent getting my thighs set on fire when I'm driving, but it's still more than enough to attract looks from strangers at my lit up pocket (and it 100% will get hot over time - 500 lumens is not a sustainable output at this size, so it'll get as hot as temp control will alow). Just recess the button for god's sake.
This light would be a game changer. I work in the police in a very rural location and rely on lights when out looking for missing people or suspects. I need my lights to also be lightweight and easy to carry.
I currently carry the p23i for work, but the belt line holster can be bulky and is less ideal for more professional dress. I haven’t tried a slim profile light such as this, but I would like to. I like that it has lockout, low 15 lumen moonlight, and memory of last brightness.
This torch would be perfect for me as I deliver at night in dark alleys and the slim design is perfect while carrying bulky trays to houses and flats and the easy buttons to adjust brightness levels would also be great for delivering in the rougher areas I have for self defence, I currently have the MH25 pro which is great but a little bulky once again great reviews 👌
EDC 27 is an indispensable tool for work. However even with the electronic lockout they need to fix the proximity sensor. Burned holes in 2 pairs of my 5.11 pants and it was bad. Charred shit. It’s a problem if you are sticking the flashlight on “lock” in a front pocket. Ordered a EDC 33 with the mechanical lockout to help.
The Nitecore EDC25 is a versatile tool perfect for your work. Its compact size and powerful output make it ideal for illuminating dark workspaces or conducting inspections in low-light conditions. It aids you in completing tasks efficiently and safely, emphasizing its practicality and usefulness in your line of work.
i just curious is it fix able let say 5 years later going to change battery myself. include EDC33/35 how to disassamble and change it. i cant find it online and anybody do it.
i think EDC25 will fit in my jeans. its slim, very light, rugged and easy to turn on strobe or turbo. convenient when your duty needs rush for example journalist, paramedic, inspector. just grab it then you go.
i will definitely use it on my job as a security guard..not only for work but for edc as well..hope to have 1 for free..im only using a Mijomi J81..shout outs here from Phils..god bless👍🤟
I need one of these..lol.. i work at walmart on 3rd shift cuz im raising my daughter alone and i have a flashlight we sell thats shaped like that and i use it for the dark places in and out of the store because the area its in isnt the greatest with alot of drug users and homeless people but back to the light the one i have kinda sucks. The main reason i got it was because i have a pouch on my belt i use to keep my box cutter, Leatherman and there is one spot that lights like this slide in perfect so i dont have to keep a light in my pocket or vest, all my tools are in one spot.. next year at tax time im upgrading my flashlight after seeing these
I think this will be a bit better than the previous version, sometimes you need to shine at high brightness and press the whole switch and the strobe mod turns on, I used the previous version for about 3 months
Great video once again, from the uk and work in the security industry! Had my eyes on these for a little while now so to win one would be a bonus! Keep the videos coming
Hello, I would like to ask a question , if you go for travel any problem for transfer this edc25 with build in battery either checked in luggage or carry it on flight , anyone have experience with this 😊
This is a pretty cool piece of kit... great UX interface and features, very fit for purpose. Given its small size, the integrated battery seems like a fair enough compromise.
The adhesive to display screen on the EDC27 melted and the screen slid off. I really like the EDC 27 so I would like to fix this if I can. What adhesive should I use to put the screen back on?
Hi I like your work it is very nice to have a good decription between several model . It is always short video not too long I appreciate that ! I my job I use Flashlight to make mecanical on military truck so I always use light. A nice EDC25 will be so perfect to improve my job.
As a marine commissioning engineer, you're in the dark of the ship for months. All day you're mostly in enclosed spaces, checking, fixing, noting... Flashlight alaways must available with 6+ hours at at least 100-150 lm. Short bursts in large compartments needed to check operations. This could be really interesting
this light will be good for me as i work as a AV crew and at times i need to do setup up or rectify problems in some tight and dimly lit area places. and with its slim and compact size it wont be a hindrance to me if i need to squeeze in some tight space.... i like the nice "Flood" too as it will serve me as a working light so i dont really need long throw and turbo boost.... 😃
I would most definitely want this now that my EDC27 is with my ancestors... Simpler battery indicator. Longer runtime at 200 and 65 lumens. Further throw. The only thing I'm curious is the heat. If the new LEDs are really more efficient then I wouldn't have to worry about cooking my pinky and holding it tight.
Thin for the win... Thin EDC is essential as it lets you carry across a larger flat space so, an organiser in a suit side pocket. I am in IT and find this rather useful for cable risers, ceilings, etc. and extra useful for coming home after working late. The LED indicators are much better than any screens, this is a very good design indeed. If you carry advanced EDC in a suit and want to minimise bulk but can spread gear over the full width and depth of your pocket then this is ideal. I really like this.
A flashlight is just about the only defensives tool you can carry in Australia without cause for suspicion. Would be even better with a striking bezel and thumb ring. 😂
So far the perfect EDC in my opinion, if I gets it I'll carry it around with me everyday. I work as a bodyguard so it'll be good to conceal so it won't look so obvious for ppl and it's good for self defense same time to alert be it ppl, signal ppl, alert and signal car, same time strobe for emergency
didn't think of if use it in my work because I got light for walking back only. but currently got EDC35 and Arkfeld pro, arkfeld pro kinda too flood I need use slightly higher light to see further, EDC35 no complain just a little not pleasant inside pocket lol. Would like try EDC25 if got fund. also never had tactical dual button setting from Nitecore so I wonder what's difference will make from EDC25 for quick activation.
This light would be an absolutely amazing asset to my edc kit, especially since I'm on the hunt for my very first edc light and because I live in South Africa where we have to deal with power cuts nationwide on a daily basis. These powercuts make daily tasks an absolute nightmare, and I would really appreciate being considered for the giveaway.
This light is just perfect for me. In my line of work, it is light and compact. Giving me more flexibility moving around and easy access to the use with flexible selection of brightness with the intended usage and duration. Awesome!
This light would be incredibly helpful working as a mental health worker during crisis outreaches at night. Due to the nature of our job, we are unable to carry weapons but often work in sketchy neighborhoods during the night.
I have edc27 as my edc flashlight & always in my pocket. Early this month the power button suddenly not very responsive for half press & also full press. I already send back to my authorised seller to claim the nitecore warranty. very love with edc27 display because i can know the run time remaining for each mode that i use, hope that nitecore just repair the power button & not replace with edc25.. 😢
My EDC27 has the tail switch broken. I can't change the brightness level but the mode button still works. Is there anyway to fix this or should I go with the P20ix with NTC2i to have better protection for accidental operation? Many thanks!
Would say both have very different use cases, if you're looking for something more for tactical usage such as working in security or law enforcement, would recommend the latter but if you're just looking for an everyday carry that's easy to fit in your pocket, the EDC27 or perhaps a new EDC25 would still be a good option for you!
I'm surprised to see you got rid of the screen, it was one of the best features. I promised myself I'll never buy another Nitecore product after being so disappointed with the EDC27. In theory it was the perfect flashlight, I loved the button layout, the flat design, the brightness and generally how ergonomic it was. But that's when the problems started - first the lens cover melted so I had to return it for repair. Okay Nitecore did a warranty exchange with the new sensor and I was happy. Then the power button lost its 2-phase button (it just felt like a single, squishy button now) making modes very difficult. Then the same happened with the flat button. Now even when I hold down the boost button (halfway) it boosts for less than 1 second and switches down to 200lm as though it is obstructed even though it isn't. I had to pay 3 times for the courier for a warranty return with these manufacturing faults, and the new (fourth) model now has the same issue with the boost lasting less than 1 second and switching to 200lm. Very disappointed, it's not the quality I was expecting from Nitecore, and as someone who has over 20 different flashlights, I think I'll rather stay with your more reliable competitors.
@@NitecoreSG I would consider testing the EDC25 for viability, but not at additional cost to me. Someone recommended the Trustfire X3 Mini as a good alternative with excellent build quality and no faults. I might consider that one instead.
iirc the EDC series (and probably the TM series) is being made by a different team within nightcore (they run the indiegogo campaigns) and have noticed the overall quality isn't the same as their usual series like MH or P for example, while not an excuse I think this could somewhat explain it.
I use a light in my daily life it has changed so much in how I do things I currently use a wuben c3 but I have been wanting a flat light for a while as it would fit my kit so much better
This light would be a blessing for me in the workplace.I work for a company that houses at risk/ adjudicated youth. I work as a maintenance tech. A lot of emergency calls happen after hours. Whether it be a power outage to a broken window. To have this light handy would make my job so much easier working in the dark.

And you might need protection
Get the P20ix it has self defense strobe mode and get this for your secondary light… ALWAYS carry two lights on duty in case one stops working or you drop it or break it etc
love how you dont hype up fake functions and tell us straight up what this flashlight can and cant do. definitely will be buying one in the future
Nice improvements in an already great light. I use EDC27 as my EDC.

Is it rechargeable?
Been using the edc27 for sometime now. I keep it on me everyday as my go to personal protection in my clinic. This edc25 would be great backup or vice versa.
Been a fan of your reviews. Everything is well explained and very convincing.
This would be a perfect upgrade / replacement for my old TUP with port flap and display gone. Also finally going from micro USB to Type-C. Most significantly safety wise commuting late night. Hope I can get this blessing. Thank you for another awesome review!

100 lumens was considered good then too.
Lights have come a long way.
Indeed it has! I’m not sure if the requirements have changed as well for guys to need so much brightness.
Light has come a long way.
This light has always been on my wish list as it meets my needs as a small personal light, will stay in my pocket and will be used inside containers, hallways, room checking and office checking.
This looks like a good choice for a backup and sort of always available light for duty purposes. Nice package with a lot of power when needed.
What duty you must be call of duty so can buy flashlight you like they serve me same like you to see in dark!
This light will be great to have when doing quick aircraft inspection at the apron area, slim and easy to carry by clipping to be trousers pocket, no need for holster. At home, I'll attach a lanyard and use it when walking the dog at nite. I'll even bring it overseas for vacations since it is easy to carry.
Great video 📹 👍!!! I have been waiting for this light. 28 years of law enforcement experience taught me that you can never have too many light options ✨️ 💛! Thank you! Keep making great lights!
I really dig the flat form factor for this EDC flashlight, and packing a 3000 lumens in such a compact-sized tool, awesome!
I didn't know that there was a different type without screen... loo,s good to me, going to have to save up for one..thanks for your time and the video
Another comment for the algorithm, im glad i found your channel because i love how brutally honest you are with explaining the light and its functions.. not just selling a product like its the best thing in the world and you can make it work for any situation when clearly things like this are made to play a certain role in your tool kit.. its not designed to be a full out carry flashlight to be used for hours at a time.. its perfect for my situation where i use my light a few times a night but when i use it its for a good reason..lol
Exactly that 👍
This is a fantastic light for my security checks during night shift and patrol. The best part is the light helps keep my carrier as slick as possible. I like the simple display that can be read quickly with colored indicators whereas the EDC27 relied on text that is very small. The EDC25 is a very interesting light.
This light is great tool to use in my line of work, because of concealability. I can teach people to use in self defense and also everyday task
This light is so slick, I would use it in my very dark workshop, and to walk home as my shop is in not a safe area. A super bright flash light is a good defense to buy you time to get away
Perfect light for me as an aircraft technician. Slim so it won’t get snagged when I’m going in tight spaces and that turbo is great to inspect the horizontal stabilizer. ❤🤙🏼
This will be good for my night hikes! Small and non bulky
I would use this light as my edc when I have to go to the UK as the flat design will be easy to carry and where I am has very little surrounding lights at night so this will come in very handy.
As a network administrator,I always need light for something. This would be a great light for working inside dark server racks and inspecting communication rooms.
Very good job of giving the consumer the info, thanks.
I am a photographer and photography is all about light. I will probably use this light everyday. thank you
I think this is a great improvement over the EDC27 for two reasons, 1- the use of UHi leds for more efficiency and throw, and also a more neutral white over the SST40, and 2- the screenless design.

I‘d use it daily for work!
I‘m a train conductor and in the morning it’s part of the routine to check the train from front to back and for that I need a good flashlight.
Great looking light! I would use this all the time in server closets and crawlspaces for running cables.
Pocket realty is important for me as i wear office slacks everyday,so this flat design will be a blessing for me
This would be a light that would be on me at all times, one of the jobs I do is as a technician, and I have to move about in dark confined places sometimes and the slim profile is awesome.
And I agree with you on the built in battery. Seen so many comments gunning down the light cos it has built in battery.

Perfect light for every day quick use when doing aircraft safety checks on emergency quick response rescue flights and as a back up to my primary. Also would "shine" in security checks when getting in or out of vehicles especially in rural or sketchy areas.
I would use this for work AND EDC. It seems like an amazing platform! Love the videos!
I would love to try this new light out for my gun bag, or just EDC 🎉
This lite looks amazing. It’s a minimalist light that packs the punch of a full size duty light. Would fit right into my edc when not on duty.
That sums it up exactly right.
Love it! The indicators instead of the screen seems to me like the rigth path. Would love to have this light for my EDC, specially for long walks at night through the city.

Nice one- I would use it for my nightly routine, checking the electricity power plant.
Very cool light. Would work great in any circumstance! Great for inspecting inventory where I work!
I had no idea I needed this! Thank you so much EDC Uncle Roger! 🙏
This would be an awesome light for me in the events business. I am often having to navigate backstage or under stages during shows so I need a close quarters flashlight. The slip and discrete profile is also perfect because a lot of our events are corporate and a bulky torch doesn't fit into the formal dress code.
That’s an excellent use case right there, with formal dress code. Thanks for sharing this one!
I love that they fixed the Turbo button. Just wish they'd do something with the hugely protruding Power button. My EDC27 kept unlocking and turning on in my pocket.

Same reason I don't carry my 27. That button gets pushed by my belt or other stuff way too easily
Very portable and very easy to carry. Nice to have on my work as i work indoors
I just ordered the nitecore postol light ✨️ to review on the channel, its in the mail now
This light would be a game changer. I work in the police in a very rural location and rely on lights when out looking for missing people or suspects. I need my lights to also be lightweight and easy to carry.

Best light for security and law enforcement. Would have bought this if I hadn't purchased the P18.
i just curious is it fix able let say 5 years later going to change battery myself. include EDC33/35 how to disassamble and change it. i cant find it online and anybody do it.
We would not recommend it doing so and as it is quite a new product not sure if anyone out there has done so yet as well!
@@NitecoreSG sent me 1 let me disassamble it.. someone has to do it at least convincible to fix in the future. im very near malaysia only :p
i think EDC25 will fit in my jeans. its slim, very light, rugged and easy to turn on strobe or turbo. convenient when your duty needs rush for example journalist, paramedic, inspector. just grab it then you go.
i will definitely use it on my job as a security guard..not only for work but for edc as well..hope to have 1 for free..im only using a Mijomi J81..shout outs here from Phils..god bless👍🤟
I’m loving this light!
I ❤ the instant strobe function.
Also ❤ the memory function
Definitely a better edc form factor than classic lights, would use it on my motorcycle trips and of course every day
heating up like crazy
I need one of these..lol.. i work at walmart on 3rd shift cuz im raising my daughter alone and i have a flashlight we sell thats shaped like that and i use it for the dark places in and out of the store because the area its in isnt the greatest with alot of drug users and homeless people but back to the light the one i have kinda sucks.

I think this will be a bit better than the previous version, sometimes you need to shine at high brightness and press the whole switch and the strobe mod turns on, I used the previous version for about 3 months
The EDC25 would be perfect for travel. I fly a lot and having something this thin would be amazing.
It’s very nice would love one in my fire tunic when you already have a lot of gear a compact design is perfect
What is the CRI of the UHI LED used in this one?
Great video once again, from the uk and work in the security industry! Had my eyes on these for a little while now so to win one would be a bonus! Keep the videos coming
Wow, those smoky cam shots were 🔥 amazing content man 👏
I have edc 27 and I love it. They should have kept the screen and done a mechanical lock out like on some of their other lights
I would definitely use one of these for EDC/ navigating server racks
This Nitecore EDC25 would be a perfect light for targeted light painting for night shoots
Hello, I would like to ask a question , if you go for travel any problem for transfer this edc25 with build in battery either checked in luggage or carry it on flight , anyone have experience with this 😊
I'm telling you nitecore is on to something with the edc lights as a mechanic this would be perfect for them tight spots
This is a pretty cool piece of kit... great UX interface and features, very fit for purpose. Given its small size, the integrated battery seems like a fair enough compromise.
I could definitely use that light. I love edc items that are usable at work but won’t get me fired like a firearm.
What's the big knife they're on top of?
bastinelli separateur - love this one
Would be nice if we had runtime graphs for all nitecore lights
The adhesive to display screen on the EDC27 melted and the screen slid off. I really like the EDC 27 so I would like to fix this if I can. What adhesive should I use to put the screen back on?
Hi I like your work it is very nice to have a good decription between several model . It is always short video not too long I appreciate that ! I my job I use Flashlight to make mecanical on military truck so I always use light. A nice EDC25 will be so perfect to improve my job.

I’d definitely use it while working especially after I lost my edc 27 which is so upsetting
Amazing light. Would be perfect for duties and inspections as a locomotive engineer at night.
this light will be good for me as i work as a AV crew and at times i need to do setup up or rectify problems in some tight and dimly lit area places. and with its slim and compact size it wont be a hindrance to me if i need to squeeze in some tight space.... i like the nice "Flood" too as it will serve me as a working light so i dont really need long throw and turbo boost.... 😃
cant wait to use this light, for camping purposes. Gonna show off to all my camper bugs
I would most definitely want this now that my EDC27 is with my ancestors...
Simpler battery indicator.
Longer runtime at 200 and 65 lumens.
Further throw.
The only thing I'm curious is the heat. If the new LEDs are really more efficient then I wouldn't have to worry about cooking my pinky and holding it tight.
Thin for the win... Thin EDC is essential as it lets you carry across a larger flat space so, an organiser in a suit side pocket. I am in IT and find this rather useful for cable risers, ceilings, etc. and extra useful for coming home after working late. The LED indicators are much better than any screens, this is a very good design indeed. If you carry advanced EDC in a suit and want to minimise bulk but can spread gear over the full width and depth of your pocket then this is ideal. I really like this.
That looks neat.
Looks like it could replace my olight for night shifts at work doing security and yard work.
The flatness looks great to lay flat.
i am mostly in VIP and PEP protection active, the edc25 would be great for my black working suit's small left pocket.
A flashlight is just about the only defensives tool you can carry in Australia without cause for suspicion. Would be even better with a striking bezel and thumb ring. 😂
I would love this light would be perfect for late night patrols and overnight guard shifts perfect profile and switches
So far the perfect EDC in my opinion, if I gets it I'll carry it around with me everyday. I work as a bodyguard so it'll be good to conceal so it won't look so obvious for ppl and it's good for self defense same time to alert be it ppl, signal ppl, alert and signal car, same time strobe for emergency
didn't think of if use it in my work because I got light for walking back only.
but currently got EDC35 and Arkfeld pro, arkfeld pro kinda too flood I need use slightly higher light to see further, EDC35 no complain just a little not pleasant inside pocket lol. Would like try EDC25 if got fund. also never had tactical dual button setting from Nitecore so I wonder what's difference will make from EDC25 for quick activation.
This light would be an absolutely amazing asset to my edc kit, especially since I'm on the hunt for my very first edc light and because I live in South Africa where we have to deal with power cuts nationwide on a daily basis. These powercuts make daily tasks an absolute nightmare, and I would really appreciate being considered for the giveaway.
This light is just perfect for me. In my line of work, it is light and compact. Giving me more flexibility moving around and easy access to the use with flexible selection of brightness with the intended usage and duration. Awesome!
This light would be incredibly helpful working as a mental health worker during crisis outreaches at night. Due to the nature of our job, we are unable to carry weapons but often work in sketchy neighborhoods during the night.
I have edc27 as my edc flashlight & always in my pocket. Early this month the power button suddenly not very responsive for half press & also full press. I already send back to my authorised seller to claim the nitecore warranty. very love with edc27 display because i can know the run time remaining for each mode that i use, hope that nitecore just repair the power button & not replace with edc25.. 😢
My EDC27 has the tail switch broken. I can't change the brightness level but the mode button still works. Is there anyway to fix this or should I go with the P20ix with NTC2i to have better protection for accidental operation? Many thanks!
Would say both have very different use cases, if you're looking for something more for tactical usage such as working in security or law enforcement, would recommend the latter but if you're just looking for an everyday carry that's easy to fit in your pocket, the EDC27 or perhaps a new EDC25 would still be a good option for you!
I'm surprised to see you got rid of the screen, it was one of the best features. I promised myself I'll never buy another Nitecore product after being so disappointed with the EDC27. In theory it was the perfect flashlight, I loved the button layout, the flat design, the brightness and generally how ergonomic it was. But that's when the problems started - first the lens cover melted so I had to return it for repair. Okay Nitecore did a warranty exchange with the new sensor and I was happy. Then the power button lost its 2-phase button (it just felt like a single, squishy button now) making modes very difficult. Then the same happened with the flat button. Now even when I hold down the boost button (halfway) it boosts for less than 1 second and switches down to 200lm as though it is obstructed even though it isn't. I had to pay 3 times for the courier for a warranty return with these manufacturing faults, and the new (fourth) model now has the same issue with the boost lasting less than 1 second and switching to 200lm. Very disappointed, it's not the quality I was expecting from Nitecore, and as someone who has over 20 different flashlights, I think I'll rather stay with your more reliable competitors.
Sad to hear that, hope this edc25 solves the problems you were facing 👍
@@NitecoreSG I would consider testing the EDC25 for viability, but not at additional cost to me. Someone recommended the Trustfire X3 Mini as a good alternative with excellent build quality and no faults. I might consider that one instead.
iirc the EDC series (and probably the TM series) is being made by a different team within nightcore (they run the indiegogo campaigns) and have noticed the overall quality isn't the same as their usual series like MH or P for example, while not an excuse I think this could somewhat explain it.
@@stef5037 it’s the same division, although different product team. The QC is the same. It’s probably lack of stress testing
I like the Olight ArkFlex more for EDC and work.
anybody know the model of the big knife at the beginning?
Working in smrt I would love to get this torch since I can bring this anywhere especially when working around the dark tunnels
Well said M.J., pick the right light!! My probably is, I pick them all 😆.
That’s a good tactic too 👍
I use a light in my daily life it has changed so much in how I do things I currently use a wuben c3 but I have been wanting a flat light for a while as it would fit my kit so much better
Never stop developing new lights and never stop reviewing them❤
