The Nitecore EDC17 Packs a Flashlight, UV Light, and Laser Into One Slim Body
  • 1,500-lumen white LED for everyday carry, backed by a UV light for checking stains, IDs, or leaks 🔦.
  • A built-in green laser module adds a third mode for pointing things out at a distance.
  • USB-C rechargeable and waterproof, in a flat stainless steel body slim enough for a pocket.

Most EDC flashlights stop at one job. The EDC17 is built as three tools in a single slim body: a 1,500-lumen white LED for regular use, a UV light for spotting counterfeit bills, pet stains, or fluid leaks, and a green laser for pointing something out across a room or job site. The flat stainless steel shell is slim enough to carry flat in a pocket instead of bulging like a cylindrical light, and it recharges over USB-C. It's a newer release, so the review count is still small, but early ratings are strong.
