The NITECORE TIP2 redefines the keychain flashlight by delivering powerful performance in an ultra-compact design. Building on the success of the original NITECORE TIP, this new model doubles its brightness, reaching up to 720 lumens with a beam distance of over 100 yards. Despite its impressive output, the TIP2 remains smaller than a car key and weighs less than 1.5 ounces, making it easy to carry on your keychain, in your pocket, or attached to your backpack or cap bill via its detachable clip. This makes the TIP2 the ultimate everyday carry flashlight you’ll want to keep close at hand.
Operating the TIP2 is straightforward thanks to its intuitive dual switch design. The power switch allows you to turn the light on or off by pressing and holding, while the mode switch lets you cycle through four brightness levels. Out of the box, the flashlight is set to automatically turn off after 30 seconds to conserve battery life, though this can be reconfigured to stay on until manually turned off. The TIP2 also features intelligent mode memory, which remembers the last brightness setting used, ensuring convenience with every use.
Rechargeability is another key feature of the TIP2. It houses a built-in 500mAh Li-ion battery that provides up to 55 hours of runtime on low mode. A power indicator displays the remaining battery life, so you’ll always know when it’s time to recharge. The flashlight uses a micro-USB charging port concealed behind a waterproof magnetic cover, maintaining its IP67 rating for water and dust resistance. The package includes a micro-USB charging cable, key clasp, user manual, and warranty card for a complete and user-friendly experience.
The TIP2 also excels in durability and convenience. Its CNC-machined body is crafted from lightweight type III aluminum alloy, offering excellent heat dissipation and solid construction. The magnetic tail cap allows for hands-free use by attaching the flashlight to any ferromagnetic surface, perfect for working in confined or dark spaces. Additionally, the detachable clip lets you fasten the flashlight securely to nearly any surface, enhancing portability and accessibility.
Designed with advanced technology, the TIP2 utilizes two CREE XP-G3 S3 LEDs that produce a max output of 720 lumens with a beam intensity of 2,160 candela and a throw distance of up to 93 meters. It features a total reflective optic lens for a uniform, soft light output. The flashlight incorporates advanced power cut-off technology to minimize parasitic drain and a temperature regulation module to maintain safe operation. With dual user modes—Demo Mode for momentary use and Daily Mode for extended lighting—the TIP2 adapts perfectly to your needs. Its HA III hard-anodized finish ensures long-lasting resistance to wear and corrosion, while impact resistance up to 1 meter adds to its rugged reliability.
In summary, the NITECORE TIP2 offers a compact, powerful, and versatile lighting solution, making it an essential tool for everyday carry, outdoor adventures, and emergency situations.
