That site also lists the P12GTS at $150 while nitecorestore.com has it at $80, so it may not be the best source for pricing - and I’m not even sure the currency is USD.

Anyway this looks really thick… 26mm !
It’s a little brick, I was hoping for a more flat design… but they always have one : TIP

Must admit it is interesting.
Wonder what kind of LED is inside, and what kinf of battery (could it be LiPo or something?)

It’s very light for something capable of 1000 lm output (only 53 gram), but yeah, it’s going to be somewhat awkward to nicely stick it in your jeans’ pocket due to the dimensions. I don’t see any mention of a clip either.

There is indeed a clip screwed onto the light, and I don’t have any issues with it in my pocket. It’s about the same dimensions as most modern car key fobs.

It has a split ring, like it’s meant to be used as a keychain…
Well, my keys aren’t that big :-p

I thought OLED technology is past the lifespan of 1000 hours. Isn’t in more in the range of Cree LED lifespan of 50-100k hours?

The display is never on for more than a few seconds at a time, I don’t foresee this being an issue.

Great name.
Why does a keyring torch need a display ?
PS: I have a TIP in my pocket, pretty good, and a Tube on a zipper, but this seems like a step too far.
