if you wanna start with a size comaprison...then you need to put that thing down next to the other ones and not just hold it close to the camera and put everything else away.
Don't ever wipe the bezel. It scratches it. I try to avoid touching it. When I do have to clean it I try liquid solvent or whatever and then blast it with air.
Well, the question that always comes to my mind, watching flashlight reviews is: Why does anybody paint a device black that is considered to be found and used in the dark. What were those people thinking. "Damn, doesn't it look great in daylight?" By the way, great vid pal. ...and great Flashlight as well.
Great question. Black keeps your flashlight looking clean. The GT Nano comes in brass and copper, so you're not stuck with just black ;-) Some flashlights have auxiliary LEDs that stay lit. This helps you locate them in the dark :-)
With the 80 mah battery it probably will last just over 6 minutes. (.288 watt hour battery at 2.5 amps is a theoretical 6 min and 54 seconds of run time)

I felt discomfort the moment you opened the head and touched the reflector. Lol Anyways, you can actually use 10440 with that. The tool AAA's body fits in the nano.
One of the sellers said you can use a 10440 with it. Since it doesn't come with an extension I can only assume you can use the tube from one of their AAA lights?
Hi Eric. Yes, I've seen it done. You can use the Tool AAA body. I think I have a really old version of the AAA and that one does not work with the Nano. Newer versions might work. Good luck and remember, this goes against specs, so you could void warranty if something goes wrong.
All that info but you didn't say how many different levels and what power they are. I know "turbo" is 450 but what's the base and is it only base and turbo?
Thanks for pointing that out. The stated lumens for Turbo is 450 lumens. The manual doesn't state lumens for each mode, but it does state the percentage. The percentage varies depending on mode set you use (setting 2, option 1-12). The lowest output is 1% of 450 lumens. Moonlight would be 0, suggesting it's lower than 4.5 lumens. I'm guessing it's probably 1 lumen.
The spring can be removed easily. You would need to find a magnet that is really flat and strong and less than 9mm. Consider putting the magnet on the outside. Join my deals group for some pictures: facebook.com/groups/EDCdeals/

There's only a bit of spill, bright enough to see objects that are close. This is a tiny little thrower. If you need a recommendation for a tiny flooder, then let me know.
@@LumenMaxEDC It would be for general purpose, keep on keychain. I have an slight i3 eos which is ok, but I was thinking about the Rovyvon A28. Decided to get a nano in brass just to give it a look-see. If I like it, I'll get an extension tube for a 10440. The ideal keychain carry would be a AAA or the world's smallest, brightest, AA.
@@ayokay123 Lumintop Tool AAA with 10440 (I have the copper version). AAA is light enough to carry on a key chain (Aluminum version). Good throw and spill. Has silicone diffuser that glows. If you're considering AA battery, then consider Lumintop FWAA (triple LED flooder, I have AL and Ti versions - review to come ), EDC AA Titanium (flooder, I have AL version), Lumintop EDC05C (good throw with side lantern), Tool AA Ti or Cu (I have both) Check out Rovyvon S3 triple LED flooder 16340, Olight Baton 3.

I love this little thing. One complaint tho is if it's not all charged up it starts acting up
if you wanna start with a size comaprison...then you need to put that thing down next to the other ones and not just hold it close to the camera and put everything else away.
That was the intention, but I missed it. Good catch! It's slightly smaller than the FW3a w/short tube.
Great review and tutorial, I just ordered one, so this tiny light is worth the wait. Keep up the good work. Season Greetings from Aruba.
Thank you. Happy holidays!

why not use polish to get the scratches out? Curious

How long will the battery last in turbo?
With the 80 mah battery it probably will last just over 6 minutes. (.288 watt hour battery at 2.5 amps is a theoretical 6 min and 54 seconds of run time)
Never touch the reflector
Good advice. Gloves next time ;-)
WOW thats great 100%
Great video how do you get it to be always on turbo mode? And does it also work for the mini and micro?

Depends on the Tool AAA version. The version that I have is not compatible.

can someone confirm if the tool aaa or the edc01 was used?

If you were to use mode set #4, the default mode set, then it's 1.5%, 15%, 40% and then 100% ( 6.75lms, 67.5lms, 180lms and 450lms)

There 2 boards in the Nano: 1.2mm and 1mm
The driver board Is 1.2mm and the mcpcb is 1mm
