Offering a simple yet rugged design, the new MDC flashlight is a strong offering for those who demand a top quality compact model.
This version has 2 options a single mode (HTL) or a 3 mode (LMH), and up to 600 lumens output power.
Power is via a single 18650 Li-ion battery, which is a common cell. In addition it’s possible to use 2 x CR123A (16340) cells for back up power or spares. Charging is external (charger can be purchased if needed).
High grade aluminum alloy materials are used, with the premium 6061 T6 type with a HA Type III anodising to provide a hard durable layer and to resist marks and damage. A black nitride stainless steel clip is also supplied.
A recessed design for the head and switch are used here, this prevents damage to the lens at the front of the flashlight, and helps reduce accidental activation with the tail cap. Size is approx 127mm x 28mm x 22.6mm, small enough to fit into any pocket or bag.

UI is simple using a time system for the switch, half press advances the mode (if pressed quickly around 1 second).
