FLASHLIGHT PRECISE SERIES/3000 LUMENS P35I NITECORE

The Nitecore P35i is a highly innovative and versatile flashlight that stands out due to its dual-beam system, combining both LEP (Laser Excited Phosphor) technology for an extreme spotlight and multiple LEDs for a wide floodlight. This unique combination makes it an incredibly powerful and adaptable tool for a wide range of applications, from long-range searching to illuminating close-up areas.

Here's a detailed breakdown of its features:

Dual-Beam System (LEP and LED):

• LEP Spotlight: The central element is a Class 1 LEP (Laser Excited Phosphor) light, which produces a highly focused, ultra-long-distance beam. This is the source of its impressive throw.

  • Max Beam Distance: Reaches an incredible 1650 meters (over a mile), allowing it to pinpoint objects at extreme distances.

  • Max Output (Spot Mode): Up to 410 lumens. While lower in lumen count than the flood, the candela (beam intensity) is exceptionally high due to its focused nature (678,000 cd).

• LED Floodlight: Surrounding the LEP module are 6 x CREE XP-G3 LEDs, which provide a broad, even flood beam for illuminating wider areas.

  • Max Output (Flood Mode): Up to 3,000 lumens.

  • Max Beam Distance (Flood Mode): Around 200 meters.

• Mix Mode: The P35i allows you to combine both the LEP spotlight and the LED floodlight, providing a versatile beam that offers both long-range focus and immediate area illumination. The mix mode can also achieve 3,000 lumens max output with the long throw.

• 13 Brightness Levels: Across the three user modes (Spot, Flood, Mix), the P35i offers a total of 13 different brightness levels, ranging from an ultralow 10 lumens (Flood) or 25 lumens (Spot) for extended runtimes, up to the full 3,000 lumens.

User Interface and Control:

• Multifunctional OLED Real-time Display: A prominent feature is the integrated OLED screen on the head of the flashlight. This display provides crucial real-time information, including:

  • Current brightness level (lumens)

  • Selected beam type (Spot, Flood, Mix)

  • Estimated remaining runtime

  • Battery voltage

  • Beam throw distance

• Dual Switches: It utilizes a user-friendly dual-button interface:

  • Tactical Tail Switch: Controls power on/off and momentary illumination.

  • Side Mode Button: Cycles through brightness levels and switches between the three main modes (Spot, Flood, Mix) by holding it down while clicking the tail switch.

• Remote Switch Compatibility: The P35i comes with an included RSW2i remote switch that connects via the USB-C port on the tailcap. This is particularly useful for tactical or hunting applications where the flashlight might be mounted on a firearm. The remote switch allows for constant on, momentary on, and instant access to strobe.

• Mode Memory: The flashlight has a mode memory function, so it will turn on in the last used mode.

Power and Charging:

• Proprietary 21700i Battery: It's powered by a high-capacity 5,000mAh Nitecore NL2150HPi 21700i Li-ion battery. This "i Series" battery is essential for the P35i's performance and is designed for efficient high-current discharge. Note: It is generally only compatible with Nitecore 21700i Series batteries or 2x CR123/RCR123 batteries (with a battery magazine, but these do not support Turbo output or in-torch charging). It is not compatible with conventional 21700/18650 batteries.

• USB-C Rechargeable: Features a USB-C charging port on the tailcap for convenient and relatively fast charging. A full charge for the included 5,000mAh battery takes approximately 4 hours with a 5V/2A adapter.

• Battery Level Indicator: The OLED display shows detailed battery level readings.

Design and Durability:

• Robust Construction: Made from aero-grade aluminum alloy with a HA III military-grade hard-anodized finish for exceptional durability and corrosion resistance.

• Large Head with Cooling Fins: The head is notably large to accommodate both the LEP and LED systems, along with deep cooling fins to manage heat dissipation effectively.

• IP68 Rating: Waterproof and submersible up to 2 meters. 

• Impact Resistance: Withstands impacts from up to 1 meter. 

• Optical Lenses: Features optical lenses with double-sided scratch-resistant coating.

• Dimensions and Weight: It has a length of 186.9mm (7.36 inches), a head diameter of 65mm (2.56 inches), and weighs around 296.6g (10.46 oz) without the battery.

• Tail Standing: The design of the tailcap typically allows for tail standing.

Applications: The Nitecore P35i is ideal for:

• Hunting

• Search and Rescue operations

• Patrolling

• Law Enforcement

• Industrial Maintenance

• Long-range observation

In essence, the Nitecore P35i is a highly advanced, "do-it-all" flashlight that brilliantly merges the best aspects of long-throw LEP technology with wide-angle LED flood illumination, all controlled by an intuitive interface with a real-time OLED display.
