*new* Nitecore P25

[kj2]

Nitecore is probably comparing the Fenix TK22 against the P25. Bit of a shame that they used again that " comparing beam profile" photo.

Looks like flat-top 18650 batteries could be a problem to use..

looks very tough, high quality and professional.
the pocket clip is a joke.
flat 860 ANSI lumens for 1h45min?
i dont believe Nitecore specs nor Klarus specs, sorry.

Looks like Nitecore has 3,100mAh cells now.

Also, 20 minutes of Turbo mode before stepping down to High according to the manual. http://www.nitecore.com/UploadFile/Files/download/1-1_P25_UM_EN.pdf

Agreed, the pocket clip is a joke - halfway down the light?

And what does "Utilized interface designed for tactical use" actually mean? Utilized interface? I also see they have patented a "spring loaded impact absorption mechanism featuring reverse polarity protection".

Nitecore have been pretty busy recently.

yep! you gotta buy their so called "flagship" in order to buy yourself out of the 3-minute stepdown on nitecore's lesser models! i knew it was a marketing ploy (aka product positioning) from the very beginning....

NOW YOU CAN ATTACH FLASHLIGHTS RO YOUR FLASHLIGHT!

Looks interesting especially with a twenty minute runtime on turbo! :thumbsup:

I am disappoint. This light doesn't have a kitchen sink.

Hey there's the low mode we've all been complaining about!

 

[skeeterbait]

Given the choice when I bought my EC25 couple weeks ago I would still buy the EC25. P25 is throwier than I need in this size light, larger bezel, don't need onboard charging for this size light, don't need weapons attachment, and the UI does not match my TM15 like the EC25 does. Don't have any reason to pay the added cost.

So... This thing pops up on the market one day and NOBODY knew about it coming? Nitecore is pretty good at keeping secrets. Wonder what is next, a dedicated thrower in the TM line? (hope... hope... hope...)

I already have an EC25 but I don't mind getting this one. It's like an upgraded version of the EC25. The military grey is quite beautiful.

Nice looking light this. I take it that the switch is the same sort as the tiny monster?

 

[Kokopelli]

I'm afraid I'll have to buy this one. EA4 head and 18650 and lower low.

 

[F. Premens]

Smilodon.. :crackup:

 

[roadkill1109]

Demmit! We just bought the EC25! What now Nitecore?!? hahaha :)

 

[roadkill1109]

Haha! Yeah, I have the EA4 and EC25 on delivery, and I also like this one! Demmit Nitecore! Stealing our money! hehehe :)

Yeah, compelling to buy it...throw of the EA4 in a 18650, very good! and much improved runtime and probably a lower low...... egad!

The price of this one will either make it or break it for me. I hope its still in the "reasonable" price range.

And I just bought a MH 25, I wonder if I can trade it up? Or maybe one of the local leo's would be interested.
I am just looking for something for night hunting since it is always cloudy when there is a full moon.

 

[roadkill1109]

100 bucks! Well, it does have more features than the other lights...which probably warrant the "flagship" moniker.

Oh well, time will tell...so long are there are no QC issues.

For the price, they should have threw in the Nitecore 18650 cell so its good to go out of the box.
