• Unique electronic-controlled extremely reliable switch design. Unique Infinitely Variable Digitally-controlled Brightness System. (100 levels of output!) Piston Drive (PD) design makes the light more compact than lights with traditional clicky switches. Switch reliability is greatly increased over traditional switches.
• Electronically controlled switching - no spark generated from the piston contact since the microprocessor switches on the light AFTER the piston makes contact. This eliminates the risk of explosion in a flammable environment! Instant access minimum & maximum brightness - very simple user interface. Extremely compact size and lightweight suitable for Every Day Carry (EDC). As with all NiteCore products, they use tough, imported 7075 military-grade aluminum!
• When the light is off, the microprocessor draws very, very little power - between 0.1-0.4ma (0.2ma typical). For example, one 2000mah cell would last about 416 days! Mil-Spec Type III Hard Anodized finish - no bare aluminum exposed, making it more durable.Aggressive knurling over most of the surface - maximizes grip. Resistant to impact from dropping in accordance with US MIL-STD-810F.

Fantastic little yet powerful lightMay 06, 2010
I have been a Surefire user for years. Currently deployed overseas and got sick of my incandescent Surefire bulbs burning out. I wanted a small light I could carry on me and trust to work every time I needed it. As I started looking at prices on the smaller surefire, I was shocked. I started exploring and came across Nitecore and this particular light. I received it today and it is fantastic.
First, I love that it runs on double AAs. The 123 batteries are harder to find and more expensive, especially when you are deployed overseas. Having the ability to run a strong light on double AAs is a huge advantage.
The light itself if built to last. It has a solid feel, easy to grip and the push button activation is a huge plus. The ability to use it as a "candle" due to the flat base is another big plus.
The light itself if fantastic. Simply to switch between the three main modes and it took me less than a minute to figure out the strobe and SOS option. The light throws a crisp, clear, beam with a tight core and decent spill. I am impressed with the color. Only the slightest blue tint. Operation is easy, and all three of the main modes have their uses depending on what you are doing.
A fantastic light at a great price. The batteries are readily available and the LED will last you for quite a long time. Slightly bigger than the battery that runs it, this Nitecore is a hands down winner!

Mighty Mite of a FlashlightNov 01, 2009
I hesitated for a long time to by my Nite Core D10 R2. Around [...] bucks is a lot of money for a 1 AA cell flashlight. I won some money at a casino, and I decided to splurge and get myself one. Now that I have it, it's the flashlight I grab for most often. It so small it fits in a shirt pocket, so I always have it with me. I own D cell Maglights with LED mods, a couple of Fenix flashlights, but this Nite Cord D10 R2 has ended up being my most used flashlight. I installed a single Lithium AA battery in it and it lasting quite well. One of it's best features is the ability to ramp the brightness up or down depending on your situation, so it can be as bright or dim as your conditions require (see the You Tube video by 4Sevens for a complete demo). This light is perfect in my opinion for every day carry. If you are in need of a powerful, yet adjustable beam, easy to carry flashlight, that uses commonly available AA batteries, I highly recommend the Nite Core D10 R2. The price is a little steep, but I was completely won over after I got the flashlight and started using it, every single day. Buy yourself one, you won't regret it.
