Nitecore RECHAREABLE MULTI-SPECTRUM LED FLASHLIGHT WITH ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT
Nitecore MH27UV Rechargeable Multi-Spectrum LED Flashlight w/ Ultraviolet Light
Nitecore's versatile and compact MH27UV Rechargeable Multi-Spectrum LED Flashlight is as powerful as larger search lights yet fits comfortably in your hand. This illuminator uses a white Cree XP-L HI V3 primary LED to produce four outputs from an energy-saving 1 lumen minimum output, to a darkness-piercing 1000-lumen turbo.
In addition to the white emitter, there is an array of secondary-coloured LEDs - blue, red, and ultraviolet - set around the main reflector that provide coloured light to perform tasks without interfering with night-adjusted vision. Adding to the MH27UV's versatility are three strobe modes and three coloured flashing modes that can be used for everything from directing traffic to sending a distress signal.
The light is designed with tactical professionals in mind. It has a two-stage pushbutton tailcap switch with momentary and constant-on modes. This switch has last-mode-memory for the primary outputs and strobe mode so you can set the output ahead of time and go right to that intensity or mode immediately. For special situations, users have instant access to both the UV LED light and 1000-lumen Turbo output for chequing IDs and lighting large areas or to search. An included tactical ring can be installed on the handle to help facilitate various pistol/light grip techniques.
