This is a review of the incredibly bright TM20K 20,000 max lumen flashlight from Nitecore. This is like having a floodlight in your pocket. The Nitecore TM20K could be the best close-range flashlight you can buy.
My name is Jonathan, I have a passion for all things 'gadget, travel and EDC' which has filled both my personal and work life for many years. This includes sourcing, reviewing and product development and the creation of two UK national retail chains. Find out more here: • About Jon Gadget - Who...
This channel is here to help you find great travel and carry gear on the back of solid and detailed reviews along with years of experience. I also hope to give you ideas and inspiration when it comes to everyday carry gear, travel gear and gadgets, which make life a little bit easier and perhaps more fun.
I welcome any feedback on my videos or the channel in general. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Product Sourcing:
When it comes to sourcing a product for review, I will usually either purchase and item personally or reach out to a supplier requesting a sample for review. Most suppliers, after seeing the channel, are supportive if they are confident in their product, appreciating the value of greater exposure.
I am sometimes asked to review a product by a supplier which I will only agree to if the product fits the channel and I believe will be of interest to you, my audience. Also the product needs to be worthy of a review. It is not in my interest to review inferior or poor quality products and therefore as you might expect many requests are politely declined.
Any sponsored videos (paid for reviews) are clearly stated as such so there can be no misunderstanding. Even with sponsored reviews I will only agree to a sponsorship on products and services which I believe will be of genuine interest to viewers.
I will always make reference in the video to products which have been provided for review by a supplier and I always make it clear to the supplier that they cannot influence or be involved in the review in any way if they choose to supply a product.
Sometimes a supplier will provide a link to the product or the supplier which I am happy to include in the description. Sometimes I will be provided with an affiliate link so I can earn a commission on sales and this helps to support channel costs but never at the expense of an honest review.
If a product I have reviewed is available from Amazon I will often include an Amazon link in the description. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. If you purchase a product or service with the links that I provide I may receive a small commission. There is no additional charge to you.
Comments:
I really appreciate the feedback in the comments - I find it a source of knowledge and inspiration - so thank you to all of you who take the time to contribute. I have recently found that if I continue to respond to all the comments as the number of videos builds, it takes time away from being able to produce new content which would be very counter productive! - so my aim is to read everything I can and reply when I can, after each video goes live, until the next video goes live a week later. I'll see how that works out 😊
Thank you for supporting the channel so I can continue to provide you with regular reviews, thoughts and ideas and (hopefully) inspiration! Please consider subscribing to keep up to date with new video releases.

I wish this kind of lighting technology was about in the 1980s when I was a coal miner. I remember when, near to the end of the decade we got halogen bulbs in our cap lamps and we thought it was the dog's danglies! How things have improved, LEDs are the future (next to garlic bread of course).

I have used several Nitecore products including lanterns that can show the battery voltage. These 21700 and 18650 batteries are rated at 3.7 volts Based on my experience 4.2 volts means fully charged. When it gets down to 3.2 volts it's about time to recharge. I think the lowest I've seen it go while still operating is 3.0 volts.

I got out of the flashlight arms-race years ago. I've got a collection of fancy flashlights from that time, but "oh look this new one's even brighter" just isn't compelling to me anymore. I use a HDS Rotary with a clip I installed myself, and a Tain Ottavino as a backup rattling around in my pocket with other small tools. Before that I used a Jetbeam TC-R2, but sadly it got lost a few years ago.

These lights are like a loudness button on an amplifier or like a dragster: lots of power - for a short time. Lights this size with outputs of this magnitude will get hot very, very quickly and so they will mostly be used on more moderate power levels. Unless you use them to impress your neighbours of course, then the "crazy amount of light for a short time" will come in handy.

It's fairly good, and Nitecore are always well-made, but $300?! have they seen the competition?! Today I could buy a 16000 lumen Astrolux EC06 for £60, and that's a proper turbo mode, not just momentary, and 566m of throw. IMO a much better torch all round, I really don't know who spends that much on a light when they will be out of date next year anyway. Fixed battery packs are a deal-breaker to me, too. Great review though Jon, thanks!

Any light of this size with similar output will only be able to sustain that for a few seconds.

I like the lamp very much. The big point of criticism is the retaining clip. As with the TM10K, the attachment is poor. The small screws are too weak. After just 10 fastenings to the pants, the retaining clip slides to the left and right. It doesn't matter how tight you tighten the screws. The retaining clip should be in a recess in the upper area so that it does not loosen to the left and right. Nitecore definitely needs to revise this in the future!

People love to debate the merits of flashlights for self-defense, but in all honestly all you'll do is make your attacker angry. You can't keep shining it in their face while you're running away, because you have to look where you're going, so you'll have to turn it off and their vision will start recovering. If they're angry enough they'll beat the crap out of you for it.

If you want to see/film leds when in different modes try getting used cheap ND filters from 2nd hand camera shops.... Then use blue tak to fit 3 or 4 ND filters together... Then a bit more blue tak to fit the ND's to the filter thread of your camera lens... Then you should be able to point a mega flash light into your camera and see what LEDs do what. If you want a close up shot probably not a good idea to put the mega flash light close to your camera lens but use the camera zoom or zoom in post production. The NDs don't need to be same size as your camera lens.....so ones that are slightly bigger. 👍🏼

I purchased the NEBO 12K, and, I'm greatly satisfied with it. I was seriously considering looking into this one, until Jon mentioned that run-time issue, when it's on TURBO. I really like the idea of such power in a hand-held, but, apparently that might be a bit too much power for overheating NOT to be a problem. I work security, and, when I need to see what's going on, there's nothing like that bring-the-daylight, to the entire area, w/o having to move your beam around, searching for whatever. Just the other night, I noticed a vehicle cruising slowly through the parking lot of the condos I patrol, with his lights off. He did exit the lot, made a right, but, only went a couple of feet, behind a brick wall, then stopped. On foot, I followed him, light in hand, but, not illuminated...didn't want to give prior warning that I was coming. Sure enough, as I turned, walked around the wall, we almost ran head-on into each other. I flipped on the NEBO (I leave it on HIGH), in his face, and, he literally jumped, then turned & ran back to his car, jumped in the drivers' seat, and scratched off, swerving up the hill, with his lights off, but, I could see his license plate easily. I'm almost certain that he was temporarily blinded, because, I'd already made the mistake, with a NEBO 6K, of accidentally turning it on, while pointed in my face.

a handheld torch works and yet obsolete considering head gear torches and cell phone flashlights. Nonetheless, thank you for your expertise...building my compact survival pouch recommended by you, Jono. Cheers Mate!

Cell phone flashlights are are better than nothing, but are useless for most tasks that you'd need a legitimate flashlight for.

Thanks for the review. I'm surprised that this torch sounded good to start with but by the end of your review I was rather disappointed in it. My needs would be in a search and rescue capacity and as a torch claiming to be a search tool it was very lacking on the throw and overall burn time for the higher output was pretty short. Very glad I watched your review.

I agree - 20k is for very short bursts and range is not there - good for close bright illumination for those that need that

@@JonGadget it could be good searching in forests with its wide beam but potentially the 20k will bounce back of the trees and foliage and ruin any hope of night vision. Its a shame as could have potential with that power but would need to be in a better configuration for me.

The Fenix LR35R has a similar form factor. It only has half the output on turbo (10,000 lumens) but it is rated at 500 yards. It is truly impressive. In my opinion, these super high intensity flashlights should be designed for more throw. Yes, they should be able to light up everything well at close range. But there's a practical limit to how much intensity of light you need right in front of you.

I have the larger Imalent R90TS and it is just perfect in my view for Search and Rescue, with a constant 10,000 lumens (very powerful and my main use) and its Turbo 35,000 lumens on Turbo. I use it for night walks on hills in Peak District (just done a video on Stanage Edge using it) videos do not do it justice)). and in Sherwood Forest. The R90TS is one of the worlds most powerful hand held (it is large don't get me wrong, I use shoulder strap and carry it for hours) throwers on the market with a 5 year guarantee and not cheap. For search and rescue, most def I would use. Note: I am 5'10' and quite a strong chap, used to carrying weight.
