The Nitecore MT21C is a highly versatile and multi-functional LED flashlight characterized by its unique 90-degree adjustable head. Powered by a Cree XP-L HD V6 LED, it delivers a maximum output of 1000 lumens and a peak beam distance of 184 meters. This innovative "L-shape" design allows the torch to function seamlessly as either a streamlined everyday carry (EDC) light or an ergonomic work light.
Designed for hands-free utility, the MT21C comes equipped with a magnetic base to attach to metallic surfaces, a metal loop for hanging, and a two-way pocket clip to secure it onto apparel, pockets, or tactical vests. It offers five distinct brightness levels and three special tactical modes (Strobe, SOS, and Beacon) operated via an intuitive single side switch. Built for durability, it features advanced temperature regulation, reverse polarity protection, IPX-8 waterproofing, and a rugged aero-grade aluminum body.
