I believe almost every torch I've bought were based on your videos. This light is first Contender for my next purchase. Yes, "Amazing. Thanks again Charles" ps -love the MH12 v2
Great review; the P20i and MH25s are my go-to EDC's, and the P20i is the one I find myself reaching for the most. I love my MH25s; but, the P20i's all-in-one tail operation makes it a true tactical torch; from the turbo, medium to low, and strobe with just a simple thumb movement makes for foolproof control in high-stress situations. Since I've discovered Nitecores offerings, I've retired my Olight Warrior X Pro and M2R Warrior Pro to the kitchen junk drawer; no, they're not junk; however, IMHO, the Nitecores put them to shame in every aspect. I found myself taking a brief look at the new Warrior X 3; however, I just can't see the point; Olight claims an added 60 meters of throw, but let's face it, the human eye isn't going to notice it that much, if at all, and they still haven't added a strobe feature. The truth is, my i3t's are about the only Olights I use anymore. Just for the record, the P20i's stainless steel head and ceramic tips shatter auto glass with very little effort.
Best light to carry for “go time” situations. I don’t need to worry about what level I left it on, or having to double click the tail cap.. the hardened steel bezel is good to have as well.
@@aggaviriyo790 I did and I'm very happy with he light. Meets all my needs for security work. Decent throw and flood. Instant access to strobe. Great holster comes with it to attach to any kind of belt. And it doesn't get hot at all :)
Hello mister... thank you for the video. Do you know where I could buy the battery case? The batteries are so fat it doesn't fit normal 21700 case.. Also, one of my 21700 has very little scratch and I could see metallic thingy on the body. I hope it is still safe tho. Thank you before.
@@CharlesBridgTec lol.. sorry I forgot to tell you. I purchased four 21700 batteries.. I thought these thing can fit normal case tho.. I was wrong. It's too big and too long.
What do you prefer for police/law enforcement: P20i or P20 v2? I guess P20 v2 more interesting because of memory and 3 user modes, even though it has less lumens.
It sure didn't take long for your next review that was really fast. I'm not a very big fan of the first level of being high nice light though and also if you could stable stand it that would be even better I'm always in the market for a new flashlight that's why I watch your videos to find the latest and most unique flashlights
Wish there were more brightness levels. It should become a standard of having 5 levels. Would be nice if it started on low instead of turbo also. That would make this near perfect. I'd like a flashlight that can change brightness level before turning it on. Something like the fenix pd40r v2 with a switch on the bottom to turn it on. Don't want to be going through levels every time. The new streamlight stinger has that but it's got only 3 levels and a pain getting to the settings with that tiny switch.
Hi Charles! Loving the videos! Could you help guide me? I need a torch for running at night in the woods where I need a flood and dog walking where a throw is nicer. More of a combination would be great. I am looking at the Nitecore i4000R, P20 v2, TM9K, P20i or the Nebo Redline Blast RC. Open to other suggestions. I'm in the UK. No particular budget. Thanks!
@@CharlesBridgTec thanks Charles! That's on the list but maybe too big for running. Which NiteCore would you go for from my list? Also, you mention your love of combination beams - which is your favourite with a high sustainable lumen power? Best, Charles
Does anyone know what the i in P20i means? Awesome flashlight,I just received it a week ago and it’s perfect tactical edc light. Thank you for your review on this light.
it goes full bright every time and strobe because its specifically built with LEO's and tac teams in mind. When your life is on the line you dont want to fumble around with modes, you just want to press it and know what its immediately on while your other hand is doing what it needs to.
Always the most comprehensive high performance light reviews. Thanks Charles!
Thanks for watching!
Just ordered mine💥💥💥💥 Thank you for your Excellent Reviews 🙂🙂

I bought it as well from Banggood for £53, a great price and a great light!

New tactical champ. How long does turbo last before stepping down? Does it step down a lot?
About 4 minutes in 80 degree weather. Will last a little longer in colder weather. Thanks for watching!

Very nice EDC flashlight. Excellent throw for the size.
Thanks for watching!
Wow, that is an animal edc! I think there should be a step between 1800 and 280 lumens though and it would be awesome.
Its appears to step down to 500ish lumens. Thanks for watching!
Charles BridgTec How long does it take to step down? I assume it steps down due to temperature.
I agree. Seems more effective to similar designs
Charles can you run the 5,000 milliamp battery with that just curious? Will give you a little bit more run time
Yes it will give more runtimes if size is the same. Thanks for watching!
Is the lowest setting too bright for doing paperwork? I usually like 1lumen mode for this.
Some people may say its a bit much. Thanks for watching!
I feel like this light does exactly what it was designed to do. Nice review, I more than likely will be picking this baby up :)
Thanks for watching!

You mean wrapper? If its on the body then you should be fine but at the positive end then you should rewrap it or just tape it. Thanks for watching!
@@CharlesBridgTec Yes.. on tha body. But.. How do you store your 21700 nitecore batteries? With what case I mean? Thank you for the reply tho..
@@feliciagunawan3861 In the light which I manually lock the light out.
@@CharlesBridgTec lol.. sorry I forgot to tell you. I purchased four 21700 batteries.. I thought these thing can fit normal case tho.. I was wrong. It's too big and too long.
@@feliciagunawan3861 Yes Nitecore cells are protected which are longer than unprotected cells.
What do you prefer for police/law enforcement: P20i or P20 v2? I guess P20 v2 more interesting because of memory and 3 user modes, even though it has less lumens.
v2 has better runtimes too. Thanks for watching!
If its a Nitecore "dual fuel" cell then yes you should be fine.
can you activate 1800 power with "mode" button when mid light on? I know you can do this on P20ix model.
From any light level. Thanks for watching!
@@CharlesBridgTec are you sure? I think you can activate just strobe.

Charles when will Nitecore P20I be availible on Bangood website,? I see it is now for sale on Nitecore.

How long does it stay on high before stepping down?
Also does it step down to the 280 lumens?
About 7 minutes in cold weather. Thanks for watching!

Check out the Nebo 6k if you want a very strong flood beam performance. Thanks for watching!

@@charliegunn3085 i4000R

You can use it on the clip. Thanks for watching!
So nice review!! Do you know when it will be available in Spain? 👍🏼👍🏼
Its within two weeks. Thanks for watching!
What are the dimensions? Want to make sure it fits my holster.
Dimensions will be released soon. Thanks for watching!
Is this more of a flood flashlight or spotlight?
Combination beam but leans a bit towards a dedicated thrower. Thanks for watching!
Can I use this battery in other Flashlights, can I use ordinary 21700 in p20i?
No. Its proprietary. Thanks for watching!
What output level in your opinion does it step down to from high when it gets hot
Medium. It will run continuously after thar. Thanks for watching!
Does anyone know what the i in P20i means? Awesome flashlight,I just received it a week ago and it’s perfect tactical edc light. Thank you for your review on this light.
the "i" means i-Generation. P means Precise. Thanks for watching!

P20i. Thanks for watching!
@@CharlesBridgTec welcome

Check out the Wurkkos DL40 which I did a review of it on my channel. Comes with everything you need to get started. Thanks for watching!
@@CharlesBridgTec ok sir..thank you.
Could you use the 5000mah battery in this?
If its a Nitecore "dual fuel" 5000mAh then yes. Thanks for watching!
P20i vs mh12s which is better?
Watch my reviews of them and you tell me. Thanks for watching!
Can you please add a purchase link
Still waiting for it in the USA. Thanks for watching!

Nice light wish to have one
Thanks for watching!

Nice nitecore. 👍🏻😉👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
I wish this light would tailstand and would have as well a 500-600 lumen mode too!
Thanks for watching!
👍👍👍👍👍💖
👍👍👍👍👍
Was getting excited thinking this might be the perfect tact light but no memory mode? Wtf
Thanks for watching!
Nitecore p22 it is
Carlos Tovar P22R and i4000r are my 2 favorite Nitecores
Rob Tbone Allen I’ve been thinking about the p22r but at the same time I’m thinking about the wowtac v4
it goes full bright every time and strobe because its specifically built with LEO's and tac teams in mind. When your life is on the line you dont want to fumble around with modes, you just want to press it and know what its immediately on while your other hand is doing what it needs to.
Pretty nice, but no side switch is a deal breaker for me.
Thanks for watching!
I have a CREE C-cell light from about 2004-5. 120 Lumens. I thought what the heck I had. It has a killer case, though.
Thanks for watching!
Good
