I would have bought it if it had a strobe and replaceable batteries
I can understand why they went with the internal battery
To prevent users from using batteries that do not meet the required specifications, causing malfunctions and accidents
Lumin Shield is just Turbo mode... Strobe should be included.
I never use strobe. People give great importance to this mode, but if you try it in the field, you realise how wrong are all the assumptions made around the use of strobing...
@@rayoflight62 I disagree. I tested strobe on myself with a friend and it's very effective because your eyes can't adjust to the brightness.
@@rayoflight62 That's why Nitecore already made the TM9K TAC for the strobe purpose. It's very useful because it disorientates and blinds assailants on your way. The new TM9K PRO is made for EDC use only with a very limited 7 seconds of lumen shield. Strobe on the TAC runs for more than 2 minutes and it keeps going. I have the TAC and it's amazing. My only complain is that it is just very floody. You need to put it on high all the time if you are outdoors so that you can see further but there is not much detail to the illuminated object.
@@rayoflight62i dont think so
I have tm9k tac and my friend get strobe by it is very uncomfortable.
Its like you see a "small sun" in the mid night at the moment 😂

When you mentioned the battery is built-in I lost focused ...
Hello Nitecore,
The TM09K Pro is a triple nontuple LED light. I don't think there is any term of comparison with other lights at this time. It is obviously a first-timer, experimental flashlight that I'm very happy to purchase and test.
The TM09K Pro is a 2000 Lumens flashlight capable of some short but powerful blasts of light. The true innovation of this light is the capability of switching from being a floodlight to being a searchlight, depending if the centre LED or the eight corona LEDs of each nonuple module are activated.
This is a serious achievement of optical engineering, but we are all baffled of why the most serious innovation introduced with the TM09K Pro - the flood/spot beam switch - works only on the brightest temporary mode.
Engineering - wise, It would have been much more rational for the TM09K Pro to have two coaxial control rings - one for the control of the overall brightness, the other controlling the flood/search beam topology.
If you don't want to go all-in with a step-less transition from flood to spot beam, you could at least allow the flood/spot transition for all output levels, i.e. 30-130-500-2000-6000-9000 Lumens, and not only the highest 6K-9K Lumens level. The use of this new incredible capability of beam forming is limited to ten seconds - once in a while. You can do better.

Nothing beats the mechanical switch lockout of the edc33/35 IMO. No waiting, no fumbling, no using both hands, no memorizing a checklist, no blasting yourself in the face with a 9000 lumen confirmation flash that blinds you, destroys your night vision, and announces your presence and location to everyone in a 3 mile radius... just slide a switch.
This is just a recycled CNC casing from the TM9K series, that's why.
So, if I need Lumen Shield in a hurry it might not work because the lens might be a little dirty???
Should I carry a micro fiber towel with me every time I carry the flashlight? In case I desperately need Lumen Shield but then lens has to many smudges on it?
I have the older version. It worked well when I had to do security checks around the property. Just having the extra power lets people know someone is on site. To me that was a deterrent to thieves.
9900lm Shield runtime----?
6000 Search -----?
High 2000lm 3h
Med 500lm 4h
Low 130lm 17h
The mathematics clearly doesn't add up (as usual). With this brand and class of equipment, it can be assumed that 130lm is the stabilized power. So if it was to shine with a power of 500lm-4h, it can be calculated that 250lm 8h...125lm-16h. So the power of 500lm should probably be stable. However, 2000lm certainly reduces the power quickly. You can guess what this value is after 3 hours of operation. Theoretically, I predict that it will drop within a few minutes to about 600-650lm or about 10 minutes and then drop to 500lm, because this means more or less of the working time. So in practice, the advertised 9900 lumens becomes a stable 500/600 lumens, i.e. the power of a flashlight that is several times cheaper 😁
That's not how it works. Different brightness levels produce different heat. The higher the brightness, the hotter it gets, the more energy it consumes.
9:40 Lumin shield just 7 seconds also.
@GeneralGoreCODM That's right. This is a simplified calculation. I am not able to calculate how much current it draws at what temperature. But knowing the brand, the power will quickly drop so much that it won't be hot. Nitecore doesn't use active temperature control (as far as I know). The only control is that if it is too high, the turbo mode will not turn on until it is too high. It will cool down. And the power drop is probably for a certain period of time, e.g. 2-5 minutes and from 2000lm to 500, regardless of whether it is winter - 20 degrees Celsius or summer.
@@stefanp5261 That's incorrect. I own the Nitecore P23i and I'm impressed by how long the Turbo lasts on a full charge (it feels like forever) and the step down isn't very noticable at all. It steps down to the second brightest mode, which is still above 1000 lumens for the P23i. Also, after a step down you can immediatly reactivate Turbo again, no matter how hot the light is. Honestly on a full charge I didn't notice a step down after a full minute of Turbo - I only notice the step down when the battery is low and it doesn't have the voltage to support Turbo for a longer time. That's also why the Turbo run time is said to be 30 minutes, because the step down is barely noticable and therefore the flashlight consumes a lot of energy.
I wish the tail switch is like p23i design and it is to prevent accidental discharge and also ability to tail stand.
I just don't like proximity sensors. Snow and rain mud and debris all make those sensors go off at the wrong time. I have never been dumb enough to burn holes in my pocket. I'd rather have a light I can start fires with if I wanted to.
what happened to the Strobe?
strobe is only available to the TAC version because hence the name, TACTICAL.
i wish this product to be using 4x21700 bat. so we can use it for a long tme to save some one :D
Fortunately, there are many other manufacturers who do not produce garbage/flashlights with a built-in battery.
Can you fast track the TM9K Pro to the UK?
Last time the EDC35 was on sale in the US, I had to wait three months before it was available for sale in UK flashlight websites.
Looking forward to buy (at least) one as soon it goes on sale here...
You need to step your review game up 2 seconds of distance and then you shined it at the ground the whole time we don't care that it can light up the ground in front of us we want to see how far it goes
Been a Nitecore for a long time. The built in battery is a problem for me. I’ve been chomping on the bit for this flashlight but the built in battery will eventually die. What will Nitecore do then. This is an expensive flashlight. My current EDC IS MY Nite core MH18 with a removable battery.
Bro, ask yourself why in the hell is Nitecore all of a sudden making lights with sealed battries??? Is there some kind of tech they dont want us to see??? This is 100% not normal at all!! I would NEVER buy a light that you cant replace the cells, what in gods name are they doing here???
Build-in batteries in Flashlights are the worst idea ever. The high energy output and the energy density makes the batteries die much faster. I have made my experiences... never again non-user replaceable batteries!
As usual discount codes for the US only. Doesn't the rest of the world exist?
Yet another torch with built in battery, why? I’m not waiting 3hours for it to recharge😣
There’s another elephant in the room with built in batteries, upcoming EU right to repair legislation!
Buy two
@@hrdcpy and make the mistake twice, naaah.
If the battery is defective, you can have it replaced by a dealer.
Built-in battery 🤣🤣. I think someone fell on their head there. Production of waste for profit - the battery will lose power and the expensive product will be thrown away. Nitecore is kidding.
Not in Europe, it could prove very expensive for them with right to repair legislation coming soon which protects the consumer.
You are right the battery will die eventually, however I’m headed into my 3 year with this very light and I have used it from full charge to dead! Straight on over seas and I carry it daily I don’t use it all day everyday but when I do it’s on for a long time and as a self defense tool it’s fantastic it’s aggressive but literally blinging well I mean everyone on the receiving end will be blind enough temporarily testing it during the day outside it still gives you stars in the vision if unexpected. So far the battery still great as day 1 however I will be disappointed the day it dies out it will be my last build in battery light for that reason because it is a waste.
I have the TM10K about 3 years old aswell & its still going strong, I also have some of their batteries from 2006 that still hold a charge...
I don’t like the built in battery design either and seems to be common in nitecore lights now. Also I think by the time it fails we will be on to better lights also.
Only way to achieve the 9900 lumens
Nitecore, hands down, make the best lights... but this trend for non replaceable batteries and ditching the strobe function is a serious fail imo. If this light had these, I'd be throwing my money at Nitecore. Please rethink...
you're going to love what's coming soon
Military grade coating.. 😆
Built in battery and no strobe? Garbage. I'll keep using my SRT7i.
What in the hell is wrong with nitecore? They build absolute banger flashlights and then have built in batteries. Why do they not listen to people? They'd sell SO many of them if they stopped being stupid.
They are bangers BECAUSE OF THE BUILT IN BATTERIES . You can't have that kind of output with a user replaceable battery
@@stanislasflipo7214 What? You're kidding right? The highest output flashlights have removable batteries
@@SMS2884 which ones?
9:39 - 7 SECONDS TURBO CONFIRMED.
Still built in battery 😂 no thanks
No strobe. Unfortunately thats a deal breaker.
built in battery 😂😂😂
For me, the design of Nitecore's new lamps is getting ugly. Older models looked more stylish.
Always STROBE much better for self defense
Let's start by saying I have an addiction to purchasing flashlights. I own many, with my latest favorite being the P20iX. I walk in the dark a lot. The strobe in invaluable at stopping people from running me over in crosswalks. Even if they are head down texting, the strobe gets their attention. I won't buy a tactical or EDC light without the strobe. I also want a replaceable battery. They don't last forever and I don't want to have to toss out an expensive light because the battery isn't replaceable. I understand integrated batteries make for less wight and a smaller form factor for EDC and keychain lights. But those lights are less expensive. So, I'm OK replacing them every so many years. I would love to have a TM12K, but sadly no strobe and no replaceable battery. And lastly, I love the OLED display on my lights. Every light should have that. You want to know what brightness level you can use while coming down a mountain trail in the dark and still make it to the car. I often use my P20iX in addition to my NU32, and I wish it had an OLED display. Keep up the good work guys. I really appreciate your products.
9:42 😂😂😂
That built-in battery made me not buy it; otherwise it would have been an amazing flashlight
this won't throw 500+ yards. prove otherwise in next video
Another robot speaking video
Build in batery😂😂😂
Hard pass. I don't like built in batteries but if the feature set was there I would consider it. Not haven't a strobe on my EDC is not going to work. There is huge difference been blinding someone and disorienting someone. Even offset to a threat a P10ix or p20ix strobe is going to bank more time in your favor so you can directly respond and/or put distance been you and the threat. A static wall of light doesn't ***disorient*** a threat enough in my experience.
Lumen Shield seems more like a marketing thing to me. If Nightcore really want to step it up- how about a light that really allows the user to customize the beam profile (throw / flood balance)? My Nitecore HC68 headlight has that and EVERY dual channel "Hanklight" or Anduril v2 firmware light can do this. Give me a light that does that and can hold 5000+ lumen for a reasonable about of time (i.e. more than 20 seconds but certainly not tens of minutes) and it would be a clear winner. No special marketing fluff needed. The features would speak loud enough.
as with everyone else in this comment section, built in battery will deter me from buying this light. Sure, we will have better light choice by the time internal battery dies on this unit. That is not the point.
With high drain lights, if I need to use it for long period of time, I would like to swap battery. Not wait in the dark for charging with portable battery, or carry another light in case this one dies. On high, flashlights of this caliber drains battery quick. It’s not a phone that you can use for all day on a single charge.
Search and rescue? Hope you find what you are searching for before battery dies in couple of hours. lol.
this would be ideal tool but its a no for me coz of the build in battery and every other flash light who has build in battery its a no i wanna be able to have a second battery ready to replace when one goes emptu coz that expands the use of the light and it dosent limit me when it runs out and forces me to quit my activity short just to load it this is bad people stop making build in batteries
