Details from the maker:
The Nitecore EDC33 is a compact, versatile, everyday carry (EDC) flashlight designed for convenience and high performance. The torch has an impressive maximum output of 4000 lumens from the NiteLab UHi 20 LED and is powered by a built-in li-ion battery. Rechargeable via USB-C, the charging port sits beneath a rotary protection cover at the head of the light.

The brand new NiteLab UHi 20 Max LED has a multi-core integrated design of a small yet high-intensity main core with 8 auxiliary cores arrayed together into a single LED. The result is a light that offers long-range coverage, extreme brightness and the ability to seamlessly switch between spotlight and floodlight. Thanks to the Supreme White Colour Consistency processing, it can emit a pure and soft white light.

The light features cutting-edge designs including a powerful 9-core LED, Rapid Lock™ for a quick lockout to prevent accidental activation, a 4000 lumen Lumin Shield™ output and an ultra high capacity 4000mAh 18650 battery.

The EDC33 is equipped with four brightness levels, plus a Search spotlight and Lumin Shield floodlight outputs which provide utility in various situations. It is operated by an intuitive two-stage tail button which is fully pressed to turn the light on and off and half pressed to cycle through the brightness levels. The flashlight has a built-in optical sensor which detects when an obstruction is within close distance and automatically decreases the brightness.

With a robust aluminium construction, the EDC33 is ideal for daily use. It's compact size makes it easy to carry in a pocket, bag or attach to the included lanyard with DCP clip.
