NitecoreEDC23 EDC Flashlight, 2500 Lumen Ultra-Slim Flat Shape USB-C Rechargeable Fast Charging with Digital OLED Display, Mechanical Lock Switch

I chose the Nitecore EDC23 as my everyday carry flashlight, and I’m really glad I went with it instead of the EDC29. Its compact size makes it much easier to keep in my pocket, which is a major plus for daily use.The battery life has been solid so far. After a couple of weeks, I still haven’t needed to charge it. It’s convenient and reliable. As others have mentioned, the flashlight does stick out of your pocket a bit, which can make reaching for other items a little tricky. However, it’s not a deal-breaker for me. If it becomes a bother, there are aftermarket clips available that allow the flashlight to sit lower in your pocket. I haven’t felt the need to buy one yet.I did read the one-star "burned my pants" review, and honestly, it just made me want the light more, lol! That said, there have been a couple of occasions where I was sure I locked the light, only to find it unlocked later. I’m not entirely sure how it’s happening, but I suspect I might be accidentally unlocking it when I reach into my pocket for other items. I could see how this might become an issue for some users, so it’s worth keeping in mind.Overall, I’m very happy with the Nitecore EDC23! It’s practical, well-designed, and performs beautifully. If something ever happened to this one, I wouldn’t hesitate to get another. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable everyday carry flashlight.

I have never used any nitecore products until recently since their products started appearing on my feed. I bought this flashlight as my EDC and I was not disappointed in the quality, fit and finish of the flashlight. The build is of excellent quality and it does not feel cheap like others I have used. The flashlight is easy to use. It's bright on the highest setting of 2500 lumens with a good throw and it is also very useful on the lowest setting when brightness isn't required. The buttons on the top of the flashlight function and seem like they will last a long time even if they go through some beating and rough usage. I work as an armed transit driver and this is perfect for me in all aspects. The screen is a nice touch because I am able to see what setting I am in and how much battery I have left. I love that this is a USB C type charging device. I think what really sold me on it was the fact that it has a safety switch. I have used other flashlights that tend to turn on in the pocket and burn my thighs. Since owning this product, I have not had it once turn on accidentally in my pockets. The clip on it doesn't feel cheap either. Overall the flashlight is of good quality and materials, and the functionality make is easy to use even for the novice user diving into the world of EDC flashlights.

Got this on sale brightness is wonderful menu is nice and has a side lock feature that is cool. Waterproof the only draw back is the clip you cannot use this on a hat rim overall I like it good value if you can catch it on sale

My current EDC light of choice. Very easy to use and I love the battery life. Although I don't use my light on a daily basis, so far since I ordered my light, which is at least a couple of months ago, I have yet to plug this thing in to get it charged. That's pretty impressive. So great battery light, great brightness and throw, great overall size and weight and seems durable as well. I don't think anything can top this light at this price point.

I love this flashlight. It has several levels of brightness, a strobe mode, a guage showing your charge level. A slide lock to prevent accidently leaving it on. I just feels good in your hand and because it is flat it fits in tight places. I bought some new shoes/slippers. They were killing me, looked inside saw and felt nothing. Stuck the flashlight in there with my cell phone and found the issue. No room with a regular flashlight. It has a nice belt clip. I use this flashlight all of the time because it is so compact. It is just so much better than any of other 10 flashlights I own and it is rechargable. You will absolutely love this flashlight.

The media could not be loaded. The light was great at first and the only complaint i have was the clip riding too high in my pocket. Fast forward not even a month and the button stopped working. When you half press to go through the different lumens it wouldn’t work and a full press to turn it off would cause it to do whacky things like cycle through the lumens or turn off. I contacted nitecore and got a replacement sent and it did the same thing. They offered to “upgrade me” to the edc25 which i just wanted to replace what i have and understand why their product kept failing me. So i called customer service and a person named Dave gave me a huge attitude for absolutely no reason at all. I was asking if its a know issue and if there’s a fix to this problem. It’s an $80 light, these types of things shouldn’t be happening to such an expensive product. Basically was of no help what so ever and was extremely rude. All i wanted to know is if it was even worth getting the replacement if the same problem is going to keep happening. Luckily amazon was cool enough to refund me the cost and accepted the return outside the window of time.Basic review and if your looking to buy this light dont.. i bought in January and its now may. It doesn’t last, anyone who left reviews probably left it right after buying it. This light would be awesome if it worked correctly but after dealing with their rude customer service and having 2 lights fail on me I wouldn’t support this company even if they fix their problem…
