Description
Nitecore EC21
Compact & Tactical
The Nitecore EC21 is a lightweight and compact tactical flashlight featuring a CREE XP-G2 R5 LED that is capable of producing up to 460 Lumens of lighting power. This light utilizes either 2 CR123A batteries or a rechargeable 18650 Li-ion battery which gives it 2 versatile power sources. Dual switch technology ensures quick and easy power access on the side of the light, which can be vital in both emergency and self defense scenarios. This light also features precision digital optics technology, with which the LED and reflector dish work in tandem to produce the maximum amount of light and throw distance of 194 Meters!
You Don't Have To Turn Off The Red Light
Secondary to the powerful XP-G2 LED, the EX21 also features a smaller red LED for additional utility. This light can be used as a flashing SOS beacon or left on constantly for discreet illumination. This light is great for hunting, exploring, or just for lighting an area without disturbing other people in the dark. This secondary LED consumes much less power than the XP-G2, and can be left on for hours at a time before needing to change or recharge the power source.
