The Nitecore EDC17 (FL-NITE-EDC17) packs three tools into one slim, flat EDC body: a 1500-lumen UHi 25 LED white light with a 251-yard beam, a built-in UV light for inspections and document checks, and a precision green laser for pointing and signaling.
The rechargeable built-in battery tops up over USB-C, and brightness levels run from a 1-lumen ultralow (up to 260 hours) to the full 1500-lumen high. With IPX7 water resistance, 2-meter impact protection, and a flat profile that disappears into a pocket, it's built for serious everyday carry, utility work, and inspections.
