Who knows more about the emitters?

I need

Hope it has a lockout

Those side mounted switches look great.

I’m looking forward to the details on this light.

This clip approach looks more practical than on the original Tip.

seems they could make the power switch a slide type which also locked out the other

I really like this, and will probably buy it. I also like how Nitecore has such a wide variety of different types of lights now, especially compact ones.

Looks well engineered!

I do hope for a CRI version

In for 1.
Thanks for the heads up!

Any specs on it yet?

gotta have it!

No, sorry.

I will update post #1 when we get more info.

If it does, I want it!

Looks awesome ! I’ve using my TIP CRI with lockout mode since it was showed and it’s perfect urban EDC for me. Hope this TIP 2 will be good successor for it :sunglasses:

TIP 2 is up on Nitecore’s website

Looks like it has a Micro-USB port. I would really like something with USB-C from them. :nerd_face:

XP-G3 … it could not be worse.

as usual with nc, they don’t seem to care about color temp. I like my MH20 and the LA30 cri but their choice of emmiters is horrible. Why choose an ugly white tint for a high cri lantern? I would use the LA30 if it had a nice tint but it makes everything look ugly even if they claim high cri.

It's all about lumens with many manufacturers. Anything else is subordinated. :-(

I wonder how long this man with his TIP2 on the bridge was overexposed for taking the picture. It looks more like 7,200 instead of 720 lumens. :-D
