NiteCore EA4 @fasttech $46.60

They're back... at least I'm able to add one to cart right now (EA4W) and coupon code is working.

You really should stop posting while drunk…

Just ordered a EA4W as I have the normal EA4 and love it.

How is what possible?

The EA4 W was in stock when I posted above. Not the EA4. They were and are two seperate listings.

The EA4W I got was delivered on Feb 8.

Does this answer your question?

EA4 vs EA4W, which one do you recommend?

Personally for a mid range light like this I think NW - EA4W is the better option. Most people I know also prefer NW, but it really is a matter of personal preference.

I find that the clarity, and ability to discern more details, with a NW tint, outweigh the few extra lumens you get with a cool white emmiter. Cool white throwers do produce a nicer looking beam in fog... but if you're after a beam, you'll be better off with a laser.

I went NW, which is still well above 5200k I would say. Much cooler than a 3C emitter. Also, the output should be the same for both EA4 and EA4W; both use a U2 emitter.

Can one model be perceived to be brighter than the other? All other things being equal, of course.

I think the general consensus with NW vs CW is that CW is slightly brighter, but NW is softer to the eyes and therefore more eye-friendly.

EA4 is back in stock! :bigsmile: EA4W too.

This is still the best price right? About to take the jump.

Go Go Go! :slight_smile:

Done! I know I’m telling the wrong crowd here, but this is the most I’ve ever paid for a light- by 25 bucks or so.

I think you’ll be happy.

NiceCore’s lights are of a pretty decent quality. I just wish it didn’t have its ridiculous MAP pricing. :frowning:

This was my first expensive light as well. I’ve always owned $10 lights. It’s a great light for those that don’t want to invest in non-AA batteries.

Was my first “premium” light purchase also… Was well worth it. You’ll love it

Thanks for the reassurances. I was torn between either this or the King on which to get first, and this one seems much more practical for the time being. Plus I’d have to add another $15 to $20 onto the price of the King to account for batteries.

I just got my EA4. Great light, pocketable and throws a mean beam for 4xAA :bigsmile:

But I’m not sure I received EA4W (NW version). The box says “EA4 U2 SMO”. How do you know which version is it?

the warm will say EA4W right on the light itself

Paranid, it should say EA4W on the side of the light. Mine came in an EA4 box.
