The Nitecore P10iX flashlight is the more compact version of the P20iX. The wide light beam of this lamp is in practice more convenient for many people than a focused light beam. This is because in most cases you want to be able to see your immediate surroundings, because that is the space in which you move. Think of walking the dog, at the campsite or at chores in and around the house. This flashlight has two settings, making it good to use both for tactical purposes and in and around the house. The Nitecore P10iX is equipped with four CREE XP-L2 V6 LEDs. These provide a calm light image. In addition, these LEDs give you a powerful light beam of up to 4000 lumens.
Operation of the Nitecore P10iX
Press and hold the button on the back of the flashlight for the ‘momentary on’ function. The lamp then turns off again when you release the button. By pressing the button completely, you turn on the flashlight. When you take the flashlight out of the box for the first time, it is automatically set to the ‘daily mode’. In this mode you switch between the different light modes by pressing the button next to the tactical button (the ‘mode button’).
When you hold down the mode button and turn the back of the lamp a quarter turn to the right, turn it back and release the button again, you activate the tactical mode. In this mode, the lamp always starts in turbo mode when you turn it on. By pressing the turbo button, the flashlight switches to the lower light settings.
