MT2C

Already have the MT1C Pro as my EDC. Not sure of the accuracy of the claimed lumen output of the MT2C Pro on high but it's certainly very bright. Probably too high for most needs, but I needed it to shine across farm fields. More of a spotlight than flood. No strobe which is a big plus in my book. Tail stands well which is useful in a power cut as on low with ceiling bounce it will adequately illuminate a fair size room. Well made, pocketable, simple to use torch.

Fantastic torch

Best torch I’ve ever owned, and so easy to use, so powerful when out in the pitch dark, yes expensive, but honestly worth the investment, lovely size too, fits nicely in your pocket as well. Highly recommend.

Amazing torch

I've had my tm28 for a number of years now and use it daily at night for walking my dog and have to say it's awesome it lasts for weeks as I don't use it on a very high brightness all the time. My dogs nearly 13 and I had the tm26 before which is also excellent. Best thing about this torch is it easily fits in ur jacket pocket

Finally - 1.5v rechargeable AA battery!

Have bought two sets of these now. Great to finally have AA batteries that put out a consistent 1.5v that I can now use with all devices that might struggle with the 1.2v put out by NiMH chemistry

Great quality and value

I bought the G20 because it has a straight forward on / off switch that is easy to use. Great torch for inspection and fault finding.

Much needed improvements from the original

I've been using the original Hx4 for a couple of years, mounted on my molle duty vest and found it a good robust light but a bit limited with the one white and red mode, the white was often too bright and I could have done with a flashing red when at traffic incidents. This V2 is exactly what I needed, a less bright white to not dazzle people and the flashing red, on separate buttons so I can easily select the right colour. A bit bigger but fortunately still fits ok, and the new metal clip seem less likely for it to slip off. I'm only nit too sure about the magnetic mount on the bottom, which seems less useful but not an important feature for me anyway.
Easy of use and robustness are what are important for me and it wins hands down compare to olight etc. You won't regret buying one, just make sure to have a coupe of spare AAAs handy - although battery life isn't huge, it's very easy to slip in a new set of cells as opposed to having to wait to recharge.

Great quality, heat really fast, fabulous size, and good heat settings, honestly can’t fault them, so pleased with my purchase.

Great on a building site

Fantastic last 2 hours on full with a 8ah battery no cables to trip over. Turn it down a bit and swap the battery ones a day. Great on site. Plaster boarding, skimming 5 stars

Very impressive torch indeed

I bought this, specifically, because I live in an area with virtually no street lighting. I want to 'see and be seen' but also wanted a torch that would be small enough to sit in my jacket pocket without being heavy etc. The Nitecore MT1C Pro does this - and more. Firstly the beam, this is more like a searchlight than a torch, very long and powerful beam, this means any approaching traffic when walking on a narrow lane, sees the beam long before they see you. Secondly the simplicity, press the tail switch and it is on, simple as that. I have had too many (very good) torches that are undermined by having to scroll through the light settings. The MT1C Pro comes on with pull power at the first press. I also like that it will take conventional CR123A batteries (I have a box of them and tried one out and it still gives a very good 500 lumens, which is more than enough for most situations). In summary this does exactly what I wanted it to do, in exactly the way I wanted it too and, hence, I am very impressed. Finally a word about the superb service from Torch Direct, faultless service every time and my 'go to' supplier of choice.

Nitecore Tube V2.0 Rechargeable LED Key Ring Torch
Very Good Value For Money

After using a Petzl headtorch for the last 9 months, I was in the market for something a little more compact and a little brighter. The NiteCore did exactly that. The charging capability was far more convenient. Overall a very good head torch and would highly recommend!

CUSTOMER SERVICE +++++++++

I phoned this Company for advice and to make a purchase. I consider myself very lucky to have made that decision as I received the best customer service I have encountered for many, many years. I have no doubt that all the Staff are great but I dealt with by a gent called Stewart. A1++++ guy and I received the bulbs within 24 hours. Beat that if you can !
