NITECORE MH25 Pro 3300 Lumen Flashlight Review

This is a first field test of the NITECORE MH25 Pro Flashlight. I want to thank NITECORE for sending me the light and making the review possible. It took over 40 days of delays, vacation, and bad luck with weather before finally having an opportunity to film a review, albeit under a wind advisory warning :(
The video also has comparisons with the MH12 Pro.
This was my first recording in which I rushed a new audio/iPhone rig into service, so there are a few segments in which wire shadows are visible. I apologize and they should not affect the demonstrated performance of the product.
I also had this light out for over two hours of nonstop light rain exposure and it held up well. It was also featured in the L-5 Imaging Christmas Special, also in light rain.

Here is the MH12 Pro Review: ruclips.net/video/5DBj5UMmGJk/видео.html . The first couple chapters may be of interest if you have not already seen it. Once again, I'm running way behind on reviews :( I've had major problems with the external mic I've used for about a year and a half and was forced to rush a new rig into production. This was the first video filmed with that rig and there was a wire shadow issue with the way I'm used to holding lights relative to the rig. It does not affect viewing performance of the light, but it's annoying - at least to me. I've since gotten better at holding the light further forward and do not expect future issues. All I can do now is apologize and hope you get useful information from this field test. Thank you.

It's the hands down best throwing medium size flashlight for $100.
This is an OUTSTANDING creation by mankind.

Ahhh, finally MH25 pro make it's appearance. Thanks for the awesome video as usual!

[@user-zs8xx2my9e]

I would like to see a high-end comparison with the 25 and the SRT7i.

[@L5-SAR]

I've added that to the review list. Unfortunately, my truck is back in the shop which is only going to contribute to the backup in reviews. Thank you.

[@izhmashbsa7305]

Yes please, sir, a field evaluation from you with p23i would be really appreciated. Thanks for your opinions.

[@L5-SAR]

Thanks for your input. Will try to get this added into the near-term schedule.

[@rejeanpoirier6047]

Well another excellent video . What you said at the end would be interesting for you to compare with the 23i and the srt7i. Now between the srt7i and the 25, which one would you prefer?

[@L5-SAR]

Another great question. As it stands, I prefer the SRT7i. Very consistent performance across the output range. Ability to dial in the exact level of illumination I need for the situation at hand. I have a video on the channel showing it used as a helmet-mounted light. Really diffing that operation. Thank you.

[@rejeanpoirier6047]

I have to agree, my choice is also the SRT7i. Yes i did watch your video about the helmet mounted light. That was very interesting. @@L5-SAR
