The Nitecore MT06MD is a precision-engineered penlight designed specifically for medical professionals, including doctors, nurses, and EMTs. Building on the success of the original MT06, the MT06MD features a Nichia 219B LED that delivers up to 180 lumens of warm, natural white light with a high color rendering index (CRI > 90). This high CRI output ensures accurate color representation, which is crucial for tasks like pupil examinations and injury diagnosis. Rated RG0 for photobiological safety and with a default low mode of 4 lumens on startup, the MT06MD is safe for eye inspections, making it an ideal diagnostic tool in sensitive environments.
Lightweight and easy to operate, the MT06MD weighs just 0.78 oz without batteries and features a reverse-click tail switch that enables quick, one-handed access to three brightness levels. This intuitive operation makes it perfect for fast-paced medical situations. Powered by two standard AAA batteries, the penlight offers up to 35 hours of runtime, making it just as useful for household tasks and close-up work where bright, detailed lighting is needed.
Constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy with military-grade HAIII hard anodizing, the MT06MD is both stylish and built to last. It is waterproof to IPX8 standards (submersible up to 2 meters), impact resistant to 1.5 meters, and suitable for alcohol sterilization—features that ensure it meets the demands of clinical and emergency settings. A stainless steel clip adds portability and keeps the light securely in place, whether clipped to scrubs, a lab coat, or a utility belt.
With its optimized illumination, robust build, and professional-grade performance, the Nitecore MT06MD stands out as a go-to inspection light for healthcare professionals and anyone needing reliable lighting in critical close-up situations.
