Nitecore EDC23

Good quality

The exploration of technology is a pursuit of refinement in every millimeter and every gram. The EDC23 combines an ultra short design with exceptional performance, making it lighter, thinner, and more compact, while still delivering performance on par with tactical compact flashlights. It also features a large capacity battery and an OLED display,... moreushering in a new era of ultra slim flashlights that offer an unparalleled experience. Building on the industry-leading design of the EDC27, it features an ultra thin structure of just 13.5mm (0.53") and a length of 102.8mm (4.05"), making it approximately 27% shorter than conventional compact flashlights. Its grip, portability, and storage convenience have reached a new level. In addition, it weighs 101g (3.56 oz) only, providing an unparalleled experience in convenience and storage. It easily fits into a pocket or on a belt, perfect for everyday carry (EDC) and tactical situations. Both NiteLab and NITECORE belong to SYSMAX which is dedicated to exploring LED technology to reinvent the flashlight LED solutions. NiteLab cooperates with an industrial partner to jointly develop the new UHi 25 LED, specially designed for portable lighting. Featuring 2.26 mm2 ultra mini light emitting surface, it utilizes the supreme white color consistency processing to provide a cool white light of 6500K color temperature. The low color tolerance of 4.7 SDCM achieves a white, accurate, and clear lighting. Thanks to the UHi 25 LED, it breaks the size limitation to offer a max output of 2500 lumens and a max throw of 280 meters, achieving an excellent performance through the dark in a compact size. It is composed of stainless steel front and rear shells, high strength carbon fiber composite frame, and an aluminum heat dissipation plate, secured by four sets of connector bolts and dual rear screws. This ensures a lightweight yet rigid structure that effectively resists compression, twisting, and bending while providing excellent wear and scratch resistance. The Advanced Temperature Regulation (ATR) Module regulates the output according to the working condition and ambient environment to maintain the optimal performance. The semi-embedded heat dissipation plate almost extends from the head to the tail and the protruding striped design projects heat outwards to help conduct and disperse heat quickly. Even after turning on the HIGH Level (1,100 lumens) for a long time, it can still be held directly. The EDC23 also features Rapid Lock for fast and easy control, with a mini size perfectly fitting the ultra slim shape. Simply slide to full/half lock or unlock the flashlight for immediate response, especially in critical situations. Two-Stage Tactical Button and Mode Button allow for precise control through half press or full press, ensuring quick response for tactical applications.
