Here is a video review on the Nitecore EC4

My thoughts are expressed in the review, but to sum it up, I was impressed with the quality of the light.
Overall fit and finish were great.
User interface was good. Handy quick modes and hidden blinky modes, with lockout and standby features.
The lack of weight is a plus for anyone wanting to save weight in a pack or camping gear.

I just would not recommend it for modding, as the unibody cast construction is just too light and too little metal, for any serious modding. That's just my take on it. Watch the long, boring review if you wish.

I tried to cover all of it's features and how the user interface worked for someone using it for the first time.


The light was provided by Banggood, for review. I did not pay for the light.

I will add beam shots tonight, if it doesn't rain too hard.

Nice review, thanks! Your mitts make that light look tiny. Looks like a good back pocket light for a farmer like me.

Did the finish seem tough?

Can someone comment on whether the heat transfer of cast aluminum is significantly worse than the aluminum used in most flashlights?

Is there a standard o-ring at the tailcap?

Do we know just how durable the finish on this light is?

Seems like a nice light for 6 volt emitters (EC4S?) Having thermal management and a voltage indicator is nice.
