Now you ask, I have been fooled by their marketing language :confounded: , it says “integrated power circuit”, which I interpreted as charging circuit but I guess instead it means nothing at all, it is just language :weary:
It would have been neat though…
I was trying to figure that out myself :laughing: Thought maybe under the switch or something.
Quite a sleek light, I like it, but that clip… and that switch… What’s with the visible star screw right there :person_facepalming:
I guess I would have to mod it 
It’s just concept, right :lol:
they dont invest time to build a XHP35 light and then dont sell it
We wil likely see more good XHP35/50 lights from the big brands
I follow Nitecore on Facebook and they used this link for the sale.
Apparently 26 left from this link? It looks to be official Nitecore store?

Maybe this is just a pre-run and they will sell more later.

Well… actually the “good old” EC2 is 10mm shorter than this with 9200 cd.
I caught that too. There is an asterisk next to it and it says that the runtimes are “theoretical”. :person_facepalming:
theoretical means in ice water like 20 mins then ramp down to 10% last 10 mins
“Theoretical arithmetic”… WTH is that supposed to mean? You take the battery capacity and divide by tail cap amps? Can’t they just do a runtime test? This light has impressive specs in a tiny package, but i hate it when manufacturers put up numbers out of the blue like that. Same thing with the “300h runtime”… you have to read through to understand it is at 1 lumen.
BTW: we need a BLF boost driver to deal with all those 6V and 12V emitters… I’d love to see a XHP50 inside a BLF A6 for $30.
This item has an irresistible size/power ratio in its size classification. Most power for size. For me, that alone is a show starter.
I can always run any light at medium mode for medium heat generation and medium run time. How exciting can that be? I am getting more and more excited about this item, just as I am typing this post.
Per NITECORE Concept 1 1800 Lumen EDC Flashlight lists this at a pre-order price of $64.95 (same as the P30). I don’t have any experience ordering from this site though. They are the authorized US distro. Hope this helps! I am curious about this light as well, hope to see a video review soon.
Great looking light except for that funky clip location. What are they thinking?
I AM interested, although I just built two Eagle Eye X6’s yesterday that each do 1900 lumens.
Still, the style of this, some of it’s virtue’s, catches my attention. Please keep me in the loop …
Thank You!
Rather than doing a 30min test on turbo, they do a longer test on a lower power setting, find how many amps it draws, then by measuring the amps at turbo you can just calculate how long it would last on turbo.
A/B = C/D
It’s not hard, just elementary school math.
It’s theoretical because on those high powers the runtime can vary a lot depending on ambient temperature, airflow, and other stuff that would affect the battery and driver current delivery.
thats true - but who pays the listed price? ;)
:D
The side switch seems strange to me.
I thought it was a hinge and the lens can be opened :person_facepalming:
Yeah I still don’t visualize how it works… We’ll see with the first reviews 
So it’s 18g lighter, slightly smaller and puts out only 200 lumens more then an bypassed BLF A6. But it costs 3 times as much? Ahh the lumens war…. Although Nitecore do under rate most of there products.
I thought about all this 30 secs after I thought, damn I want one.
