Love the flash light reviews man, always informative, and look forward to seeing them when they come out. Great stuff Ben!

I freakin love the Nitcore TM03!!!!! I just got mine and I am drooling over it.

I was waiting badly for someone to review this flash light, I believe you are first one. Thxs

I'm digging the mode button on the tail! it's about time someone did that. Nice video Ben!

The flash lights just get better I'm getting this flash light payday !! Another brilliant review my man "BEAST"

I ordered the TM28 looks like a great light

The batteries are IMR 18650 batteries. Different chemistry than regular 18650 batts. They basically get the juice faster to the flashlight than reg 18650s. This type of battery is better for high power FL in that it lets these FL show there full potential. Downside is that they don't last quite as long. Also, you can get these from other manufacturers for less $$ on Amazon or the like. For a good detailed explanation of all this, Google , "difference between 18650 and IMR batteries?" then pick candlepowerforums.com from the list

Nice. Thanks for showing the charger. I can really use one of those.

Looks like a nice balance of flood and throw, and a lot of lumens for that small of a light. It definitely lives up to its name lol. I would like to see more of an even spread on the lower end of the modes, though. Maybe like the 40 lm could be the equivalent of a "moonlight"/ultra-low mode, then like 120 lm for low, 300 for medium, then the 550 for high, then the 1350 for ultra-high, then the 2500 for turbo. It's still awesome, and hey, nothing's perfect. Nice review as always, Ben! :)

sweet I have been waiting for a review from you on this light !!!

Love you channel Man! Double Thumbs Up!!

The "made only for TM03" battery is nothing but an IMR, a lithium-ion cell that uses manganese instead of the usual cobalt (ICR). It's got considerably less capacity, but handles extremely high drain very well.

Hi Ben, how are u? One question in your opinion which is better: nitecore tm03 vs thrunite tc15. Best regards from Chile Fernando

Great video!

Great review as always Ben! I like Nitecores and own a couple but, I'm with you on that Klarus XT11S. Have one clipped in my pocket every day. Would like to see you review the Klarus Mi7 and Mi02. I'm becoming a Klarus fan!

I like how wide and bright the beam is. I have no problem using a power bank...

I bought one of these torches! They are bright, but get extra batteries!!

Wow that's a powerful light

You didn't provide a link to the F1 charger!

What a fitting name

love nitecore

Hi Ben, as always I liked the review but there's one question left: what happens if you use a normal 18650 batterie in the TM03? I can't imagine that this would damage the light but I expect the output to decrease. Would you be so kind and test this out so I can decide wether it's worth buying or not? It really depends on this issue since I have some 18650s for my other lights and would want to use them in den tm03 as well. The recommended batteries from nite core are way to expensive in my opinion. Unfortunately I couldn't find any information about it on the internet and don't know anyone who owns the flashlight. Thank you in advance and greetings from Germany

NICE REVIEW!!! Is it true that it has a 2 sec delay between modes?

I've been waiting for a review of this newer light, specifically from one of my go-to subscriptions. It's pretty sweet...for exactly what you said...a handheld, smaller spotlight. The fact it has to have its own, dedicated battery is kind of silly, but I get what Nitecore is doing with their products. Constantly in competition, but so many great brands to choose from. I really liked that little F1 charger you showed. I'll definitely be looking into one of those. What are your thoughts on the 18650 batteries that have a micro USB charging port...that goes directly into the battery? Built right in?Thought those looked interesting and didn't know if you've heard of or used any before? Great reviews as always. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your weekend!

Love it.

I hope they put this spec into srt7

Can you review the TM03 CRI?? And what the deference between TM03 and TM03 CRI..

How would you compare this to the MH20GT? I'm between the TM03 or the MH20GT for my next light.

Yet another great review causing me to be separated with yet more $$, but here's the thing, tell me about your badass eyeshades Bro.Who makes those?? Need a new pair!!

Can i use this on my bike? I was thinking if oncoming cars would be blinded?

Nice video. You talked a lot about the battery but didn't mention the capacity ;)

could i charge the tm03 battery in my mh20gt using the usb recharging?

How is the weight on i, equally distributed?

when does the survival kit giveaway end?

How many lights do you have ?

I'm not a fan of USB recharging for 2 reasons. 1st it takes over 8 hours to charge that way. No thanks, I would rather use the d4 charger and cut the charge time down to 2 hours. 2nd I'm a diver, i must have a newer version because mine has 2 orings. I don't care what Nitecore says, this light is waterproof to at least 30meters for as long as the battery has power. Even in the salty ocean. Always silicone your orings before salt water use!

sunglasses?

id like to say i watch all the survival,prepper, bush craft videos that i can. your videos are very well done i cant stand these guys that act like they are professional survivalists and film in the wilderness!!!!!! that you can hear lawn mowers in the back ground. PM101 is the worst.

Cool light. Just wish the batteries weren't so pricey

I love your channel and your enthusiasm for living survival but please no more flashlight reviews for a while lol. I swear all I see now are flashlight reviews. Just my two cents.

No USB charge capability??? NOOOOOOOooooooooooooo.............................
