Nitecore Flashlights

*Page still under construction

///Nitecore P20 800 Lumen Flashlight ''NK 2014 Tactical Flashlight of the Year Top Pick"

// Gun mountable light that doesn't require a remote pressure switch because the new tactical strobe button can be activated with the palm of hand or the pinky (no more cords!) or even with the tip of the thumb
// New quick strobe button is basically a soft pressure switch so that if you grip the light with it sitting in your palm it turns on

// 800 lumen output is decent with 60 feet of usable illumination
// New tactical switch can be programmed for any mode combination

// Constant brightness drain pattern produces the same level of output till the battery is fully depleted
// Built in LED battery level warning light

// Compatible with RSW2 remote switch by Nitecore for gun use

// Perfect for mounting on a small or large gun

//5 Point Review: Nitecore P20

//CONCEPT
//A top pick for it's combination of size, durability, beam performance in terms of output/reach, battery drain, versatility of applications & a unique rear tail cap switch. Other competitors include the Armytek Wizard Pro Headlamp & the Nitecore MH1C.
//PERFORMANCE
//Only a decent 800 lumens but more importantly paired with a deeper reflector creates superior throw (other comparable 1000 lumen lights such as the Nitecore P16 & FEnix PD35 disperse the light too rapidly up close). The overall shape allows for a good striking grip but slightly uncomfortable for EDC. Bezel crenulation for striking is not very aggressive (compared to a NEBO). The drain pattern is Constant meaning the brightness of the light does not dim as the battery starts to deplete.
//FINAL THOUGHTS
//With all equipment/gear, the intended application determines the features worth looking for. The P20 offers a multitude of options & because of this it gets high praises from NK. It's worth looking at the other two competitors for 2014 which are the Armytek Wizard Pro and the Nitecore MH1C.
Picture
//CONSTRUCTION & DESIGN
//As tested on other Nitecore flashlights such as the MH1C (runner up for top pick for tactical EDC flashlight) the internal components are waterproof and the flashlight will work even if completely flooded. Impact resistance is at a class standard.
//ROLE & APPLICATION
// The P20 is a muti-purpose tactical light. Shorter than lights like the Fenix PD35 or Nitecore P12, it's designed to possibly be used with a pistol yet be able to be dropped into a pocket. A variety of accessories are available to make the P20...
applicable in different fields. The pocket clip should be immediately replaced with a stronger/ secure one and the flashlight is more secure dropped in the pocket or in it's sheath. The head on the flashlight is larger but this is to accomodate a deeper reflector for a more focused beam to throw the 800 lumens farther than comparable 1000 lumen flashlights.
