Flashlight NITECORE TM20K - 20000 lm / 146 mm / Rechargeable

The Nitecore TM20K is a shock-, water- and dust-resistant tactical flashlight designed for demanding applications, equipped with separate narrow, wide and combined light beams. The lamp produces up to 20,000 lumens of instantaneous maximum light output and a beam that can reach up to 290 meters. What makes this lamp exceptional is its incredible size-to-power ratio, which puts it in the top category of tactical hand-held flashlights. The incredible performance is due to up to 19 CREE XP-L2 LEDs, optimized electronics and a battery with a large 9600 mAh capacity, which together with a compact body and an easy-to-use interface create a whole that serves its user even in the most challenging conditions. The TM20K is the perfect lamp for search, law enforcement and rescue use as well as for demanding outdoor activities.

There are two tactical tail switches on the back of the lamp, one of which acts as a power button and the other can be used to activate maximum power mode or strobe flash for momentary use. In addition, there is a separate MODE button on the back of the lamp for adjusting power modes and a convenient toggle switch that allows you to choose whether you want to use the lamp in tactical mode or in the mode intended for daily "everyday use". The same switch can also be used to set the lamp to key lock. All switches are placed on the lamp body in such a way that operation is easy with one hand without having to spend time or thoughts searching for the right buttons.

Unlike many other flashlights, the TM20K is equipped with an exceptionally high-performance 9600 mAh li-ion battery, which, together with powerful LEDs and carefully designed reflector optics, enables exceptional light output. The high-capacity battery not only offers power but also long operating times, as exemplified by the lowest Ultralow power mode, in which the lamp operates for up to 13 hours continuously, producing a light output of 320 lumens, which is excellent for close-up work, for example. The battery can be charged from the USB-C charging port on the back of the lamp, and when using fast charging, charging takes only 4.5 hours! Five-year (60-month) warranty!
