Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

WE ARE ON!

I just pulled trig on 2...

I ordered one with the 5A Q3 and one regular...

Can't wait to see 'em!

😀
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

I ordered the Warm. If I decide to switch, I'm sure someone will trade!(or buy it) but I didn't want to chance no availability. Hopefully they will ship quickly.
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

i wonder how the contacts are made. i remember when i had a dx flashlight that had no spring and put dents in my aa. im going to wait for a review just in case.

it says. World’s smallest AA flashlight

isn't that the H50? or is this the smallest now..
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

I agree that it sounds a little like a very over-hyped, over-sold feature. But what the heck, I'm a sucker for simple, quality twisties.

Me too. I ordered one based on the light. If I get a decent quality LSD AA with it, it's a bonus.
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

I always have to laugh at the "World's anything-est" It's quite often an extremely subjective measure. I'm hoping I can scrape the money together to get one of these (especially during the pre-order), but it's not looking likely.

I would be surprised if it's smaller than the H50, but technically the H50 is a headlamp, not a flashlight...
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

i think the H50 is shorter but its fatter
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

i think i will hold my order 1st. the final product doesnt seem to have much improvements over the D10 except for a smaller size and a longer runtime on high. 10lumens on low may be too high for me to use as a toilet light at night. it would be great if nitecore could come up with this size but the UI is similar to the NDI where there is indefinite brightness levels by turning the head.
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

Caught me in a good mood. In spite of a few misgivings, we all need a little strange (light, that is). I'll join the stampede. See you at the bottom. Baaaaaaaa.

That's where you're getting it all wrong. It's smaller size is the key factor. This thing is small enough to be a keychain light which puts it in competition with with lights like the Fenix LD-01 and the Myushondt Aeon. In that class it's clearly superior to the LD-01 in terms of run time and output, on par with the Aeon at a much, much lower price point.

That's why I jumped on it.
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

Even the smallest of AA lights like the old ArcAA or the Peak pacific is too big for a keychain IMHO.

I hope they come out with an AAA version.
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

I'm excited about this light, but that could be setting me up for a big let down. :party:

Since they offered a WW version 😎 (although with delayed delivery), I had to get a couple. I wanted to test it ASAP, so I got their regular tint version as well. I just think we need more nice AA lights, and if it is small enough then the AA cell will be a nice upgrade over AAA. If it does not work out there is B/S/T.

The AA battery and simple interface could make it one of the best lights to give as a gift.

Crossing my fingers.
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

Not sure why people like warm white lights. Reminds me of incandescent lights which I am glad are behind me now with LED lights.

I honestly prefer the blue nichea tint than warm white LEDs.

... but I prefer the 5A because they don't really have a high CRI one available yet, and the 5A seems better for rendering the colors I like the most. ...

When high CRI leds are the norm, I won't need something called 'warm'. If you look at several of the real-life images comparing the latest warm/neutral emitters with the more standard tints you should be able to see what many of us see. I'm not looking for a typical Incan spectrum, any more than I'm looking for typical LED spectrum. I'm looking for full-spectrum. The right tool for the right job, and I'm lucky enough to have a fair number of tools so I'm not missing anything.

AAA version, and from someone who wants to sell a flashlight, not play stupid games.
5A or no 5A(and it isn't a "WW", it's a neutral), I can do without that crap.

'course 5A is the only thing that'll get my money.
 
Re: The new little NiteCore: "EZAA"

The light looks great, but I was expecting a lower price to be honest. I expected it to be around $40 or so, which would make it under $37 after the coupon code is applied.
