The Nitecore EC4S is the second die-cast flashlight from Nitecore, which is manufactured using a casting method of injecting molten aluminium under high pressure into a mould cavity, which involves no separate parts being welded or fastened together. This means the EC4S has the highest level of structural integrity with the head and the tube being an integral whole.
The most incredible thing about the die-cast unibody construction is that it gives the EC4S the best heat sinking capabilities that you could imagine in a flashlight. The seamless structure ensures heat generated by the working LED is delivered evenly and rapidly to the overall surface. The die-cast unibody construction of EC4S needs no redundant elements except for the glass, LED, reflector, regulation circuit board and the rear lock. There is no battery compartment or fasteners between the head and the tube. This means that EC4S has the most compact size and the lightest weight, which is beyond the capabilities of any conventional manufacturing process.
Utilising the Cree Quad-die Xlamp XHP50 LED, which is equivalent to the Cree XM-L2 in terms of size, yet capable of emitting twice the brightness. The XHP50 LED produces a diffuse beam with large hotspot, and combined with the textured reflector results in a smooth beam pattern, which is perfect for real world usage.
A dual side switch allows for easy one handed operation and instant access to turbo and ultra low output. The switch also incorporates a blue light power indicator (patented) that displays the remaining battery power to help prevent users being left in the dark.
