Nitecore EDC17 Flashlight 1500 lumens (UV+Green Laser)
Three professional tools in one pocket: 1,500-lumen flashlight, UV authentication light, and precision green laser. Stainless steel construction with USB-C charging.
Three professional tools in one pocket. Stop carrying separate devices.
The EDC17 consolidates what would normally require carrying three separate tools: a high-output flashlight, professional UV light, and precision laser pointer. One device, one charging cable, one thing to grab.
✔1,500 lumens with 230-meter throw on white light
✔UV light with 3 power levels (220mW to 1,350mW) for authentication and detection
✔Class 3R green laser (<5mW) for precise pointing and presentations
✔Built-in 1,500mAh Li-ion battery with USB-C charging
✔Charges fully in approximately 1 hour 30 minutes
✔4 white light levels plus ULTRALOW mode for extended runtime
✔IPX7 waterproof rating and 2-meter impact resistance
✔Weighs just 106g without accessories
Your pocket-sized solution for everyday challenges and specialized tasks.
?PROFESSIONAL-GRADE UV AUTHENTICATION - At 1,350mW peak output, this reveals security features on currency, IDs, passports, and credit cards clearly even in ambient light. Three power levels let you match intensity to the task: 220mW for basic checks with 13 hours runtime, 650mW for standard authentication with 5 hours runtime, or 1,350mW for maximum output when you need it with 2 hours runtime.
?SERIOUS THROW IN A COMPACT PACKAGE - The precision orange peel reflector delivers 230 meters of throw from just 1,500 lumens. That's the same throw as lights twice this size. The deep, focused reflector design balances long-range visibility with enough peripheral spill for close-up work.
?SMART ULTRALOW ACTIVATION - With the light off, hold the M button and slide forward to activate 1 lumen mode. This prevents accidentally blinding yourself when checking something in the dark. At ULTRALOW, you get 260 hours of runtime from a single charge. The built-in battery charges in 90 minutes via USB-C.
?VISIBLE IN DAYLIGHT CONDITIONS - The Class 3R green laser at 510-530nm wavelength stays visible where red lasers wash out. Human eyes are most sensitive to green, making it work in bright rooms, outdoor daylight, and across long distances. Direct access from any state: hold M button for instant laser activation.
?STAINLESS STEEL DURABILITY WITH SMART COOLING - IPX7 waterproofing handles rain and splashes. The glass-breaking ceramic tip provides emergency escape capability. Drop it from 2 meters? The stainless steel shell with PVD coating keeps working. The heavy clip acts as a heat sink during turbo mode, cooling faster than similar compact lights.
?LIGHTER THAN CARRYING SEPARATE TOOLS - At 106g, this replaces tools that together would weigh over 200g. One device, one charging cable, one thing to grab when situations demand it. Light source memory remembers your last setting, so it turns on exactly where you left it.
WHY THE EDC17 STANDS OUT?
✔Versatility in Your Pocket
Three specialized light sources mean you carry one tool instead of three. Switch instantly from white light for visibility to UV for authentication to green laser for precision pointing.
✔Serious Runtime Options
Run for 260 hours on ULTRALOW when you need extended visibility, or blast 1,500 lumens when maximum output matters. The power management gives you options for any situation.
✔Stainless Steel Construction
Built with high-strength stainless steel shell and PVD coating, not aluminum. This handles drops, scratches, and rough daily use better than standard EDC lights. The detachable ceramic glass-breaking tip provides emergency vehicle escape capability.
✔Emergency-Ready Design
The detachable ceramic glass-breaking tip can shatter vehicle windows during emergencies. Combined with IPX7 waterproofing, this light works when critical situations demand it.
Built for the Professionals Who Actually Need Three Tools
Real Scenarios Where the EDC17 Makes Sense
Security personnel checking IDs at entry points switch from UV authentication to white light illumination to laser indication during shift briefings. Instead of juggling three devices and three charging cables, they clip on one tool that handles everything.
Field service technicians use UV to spot hydraulic leaks and coolant traces invisible under normal light, the laser to mark specific bolt locations for repair documentation, and white light to illuminate engine compartments or electrical panels. The slide switch operates one-handed, even with gloves on.
Building inspectors document issues by marking problem areas with the laser pointer for photo documentation, checking for moisture intrusion with UV, and illuminating dark spaces with adjustable white light from 1 lumen for close electrical work to 1,500 lumens for large rooms.
Law enforcement officers verify document authenticity during traffic stops with UV, use the laser for distance indication during incident coordination, and rely on white light for general patrol work. The 12-month standby time means it stays ready in the duty bag between shifts.
The stainless steel construction and IPX7 waterproofing handle the reality of professional use: rain during outdoor inspections, drops onto concrete, exposure to chemicals and fluids. The glass-breaking ceramic tip provides emergency vehicle escape capability during critical incidents.
