The Nitecore EDC29 is a 6,500-lumen flat EDC flashlight built around dual NiteLab UHi 20 MAX LEDs, throwing a focused beam up to 437 yards while staying thin enough for everyday pocket carry. A dual-stage tactical button gives instant access to Floodlight or Strobe, a separate dual-stage power button controls power and brightness, and Sensor Protection automatically reduces output if the light is accidentally activated in High mode — so the Nitecore EDC29 works equally well as a tactical light and a daily carry.
Charging is handled through the built-in USB-C port — a full charge takes just over 1 hour and delivers up to 61 hours of runtime on Ultralow. Semi and Full lockout modes prevent accidental activation, and the IP54-rated, 1 m impact-resistant body measures just 5.26" long and weighs 5.64 oz.
