Nitecore EDC29 Luminblade Flashlight, 6500 Lumens

As the latest addition to NITECORE’s EDC Series, the EDC29 LUMINBLADE is an ultra-thin, high-performance flashlight designed for everyday carry and tactical applications. Crafted to be the most powerful ultra slim tactical flashlight to date, it boasts an impressive 6,500 lumens of brightness and a beam distance of 400 meters, all packed into a sleek design that fits comfortably in your hand.

Featuring a slim design with the powerhouse performance of the TM (Tiny Monster) Series, the EDC29 redefines what a compact flashlight can achieve. Built with a dual LED system (2 x UHi 20 MAX LEDs) with 18 cores, it delivers unrivaled brightness and extraordinary long-range capabilities in an ultra-thin design, outperforming bulkier mid-sized flashlights and setting a new standard in terms of performance.

The integrated light control technology provides an intuitive user experience. With thhttps://www.adventureprozone.ca/product/nitecore-edc29-luminblade/ree versatile modes—LUMIN SHIELD™, Second-Gen STROBE READY™, and 400-Meter Tactical Search Mode—users can quickly adapt to various scenarios. The LUMIN SHIELD™ creates a 6500-lumen light for immediate, wide-area protection that shields you from threats and illuminates the surroundings without causing glare. The STROBE mode offers randomly changing frequencies between 16 Hz and 20 Hz and causes stronger dizzying effects due to the inadaptability of the naked eyes. Under tactical SEARCH mode, the two primary LED cores can be activated alone to punch out a stunning 3000-lumen beam and generate 40,230cd, rivalling tactical compact flashlights in terms of throw.

Featuring dual two-stage tactical tail switches, the EDC29 offers precise control over On, Off, and Brightness Level Adjustment with half or full presses. The customizable tactical button allows users to tailor functions to their needs—half press for SEARCH and full press for LUMIN SHIELD™ or STROBE—enabling rapid responses in critical situations. The popular Rapid Lock™ provides quick and easy locking; a simple slide lets you fully lock, half-lock, or unlock the flashlight for immediate response, especially in critical situations.

The EDC29 features a rugged body with a composite, armor-inspired anti-slip design. Stainless steel shells at the front and rear are seamlessly integrated with a carbon fiber composite frame, creating a unique armor-like texture that provides a secure and comfortable grip—whether you’re using it barehanded or with gloves. The entire assembly is reinforced by four sets of connector bolts, ensuring a durable and robust build. Despite its sturdy construction, the EDC29 is lightweight at only 160 grams (5.64 oz), without sacrificing strength. It’s capable of withstanding heavy pressure, twisting, and bending.

Powered by a built-in 2,500mAh Li-ion battery, the EDC29 achieves up to 61 hours of runtime. This marks a 47% increase in capacity compared to the previous EDC27 UHi, reducing the need for frequent recharges.
