Does anyone have a Nitecore MT1C ? I am thinking of ordering one and was wanting the pros and cons of it...I have pocket carried a Fenix PD20 and PD22 for the last few years, how does the Nitecore compare to the Fenix ? Thanks Geary

That one has been on my list for a while now, but I've got too many in that category, so it's been pushed to the bottom of the list several times.

I really wish it had something like a 40L, 100L, 180L, and 280L kind of settings, but it's supposed to be a pretty awesome flashlight for a sub $40 non-rechargeable torch that can get that close to 300L.

I had a JetBeam BC10 (sold it on here to another member - kind of regret selling it) which is similar (but with only two modes) and now I've got a Sunwayman S10R (which I love).

I haven't even carried any other flashlight for a while now, so that says something about this Sunwayman - I typically rotate them all through, but just haven't felt the need to ever take this S10R out of my pocket.

I just got the Fenix PD-35. It takes either 2 123 batteries or a single 18650. It's the brightest, smallest and lightest in weight light I've owned so far.

Where was this light back when I was carrying a Streamilght Stinger rechargeable on my gun belt everyday? It's at least half the weight and twice as bright.

Get some Lithium AA batteries if you want to get the full potential out of it (also Alkalines will more often corrode/swell when left in an aluminum flashlight housing for a long time).

thanks for the reply....My wife carries a Sunwayman M10R in her purse. After hearing how much you like the S10R, I think I will try one out.

I found the Sunwayman S10R for $38 free shipping and the Nitecore MT1C for $32 free shipping, I ordered both since I couldn't make up my mind.

Atta boy! :)

If you tire of that NiteCore, let me know first - I may have just sold a few of my flashlights and am looking for something like that one to replace one of my older ones.
