It’s no secret that we’re big fans of Nitecore’s EDC-series of lights, and for good reason. They’re slim, practical, highly pocketable lights that don’t compromise on performance, and that’s a combination we always love to see. The Nitecore EDC23 builds on the design of the successful EDC27 and makes it even more compact with a length of just 4.05″ and a thickness of 0.53″. What’s impressive is that it does this while improving on the performance of its predecessor. Composed of stainless steel front and rear shells, a high-strength carbon fiber composite shell, and an aluminum heat dissipation plate, the EDC23 manages to combine strength and lightweight handling, fitting comfortably in hand and pocket alike.
The twin UHi 25 LEDs produce up to 2,500 lumens with a beam reaching 280 meters, powered by a built-in 1,500mAh Li-ion battery that you can recharge through USB-C. A multifunctional OLED display shows the user important information such as battery voltages and remaining power. If you’ve been looking for a pocket-friendly light that doesn’t skimp on performance, the Nitecore EDC23 is well worth a look.
