The Nitecore P23i tactical flashlight is super bright and compact with long throws. It achieves 3000 lumens max and reaches 512 yards of beam throw, thanks to the single SFT-70 LED and a large polished reflector. The Nitecore P23i is the culmination of all the new upgrades fans have been asking for in the P series. Throws farther than the P20i, but is far more compact than the P30i.
Same as the other P series flashlights, Nitecore P23i comes with an easy-to-use end cap; so that you can change the brightness and access the stroke mode with a single hand. Back in action are the tail stand capability, preventing accidental activation while providing a secure attachment point for lanyards. The stainless steel bezel with three silicone nitrided inlays reduces glass to rubble, making P23i an indispensable tool for emergencies. With an IP68 waterproof rating and a covered charging port, the P23i can be used safely in any climate. The Nitecore P23i is compact enough to carry as an EDC flashlight or as a part of outdoor gear for camping; hiking, yet strong enough as a duty light for law enforcement or a work light for professionals.
