The Nitecore TM9K flashlight has an incredibly powerful maximum output of 9500 lumens from the 9 x Cree XP-L HD V6 LED and is powered by a built-in 21700 li-ion battery. The torch is rechargeable via a USB-C port towards the head of the light and comes with a charging cable that charges the battery to 80 percent in approximately 1 hour 45 minutes. The torch features a Turbo Ready mode button for instant access to the 9500 lumen brightness setting, ideal for emergency use, defence purposes or search and rescue applications. The TM9K is operated by a dual tail switch system which allows for tactical, one-handed use. The torch has a power indicator on the tail end of the light which shows the remaining battery power. The TM9K has a CNC machined, unibody design and is constructed from aluminium alloy with a hard anodised finish. This allows for excellent heat dissipation as well as being a solid but lightweight torch. In addition, the high power, high performance flashlight features mode memory, a thermal protection function and an efficient constant current circuit (non-PWM).
