Amazing tiny flashlight with lots of power and features

I purchased both the TIKI and TIKI LE flashlights and these things are amazing. The power these tiny lights have is very impressive. You have flexible outputs and even the side body led lights if you want to stand it up on a flat surface. The UV light is not very bright but regular white light is bright. Flashing modes available also if required to draw attention. I have purchased on eBay a Nitecore USB cable that is stiff and bendable. What this means is in the car I can have a hands free bendable light in any direction without disturbing night vision. It also runs off the USB and not internal battery and charges when light is off. This setup also works great on USB external power packs if in camping type environment as light can be pointed anywhere and left to run ... MoreI purchased both the TIKI and TIKI LE flashlights and these things are amazing.

It also runs off the USB and not internal battery and charges when light is off. This setup also works great on USB external power packs if in camping type environment as light can be pointed anywhere and left to run for very long periods of time using external power. My phone uses micro USB (not an Apple) so it is convenient since cables are always around to recharge. For a tiny key-chain type light, the features and brightness make this a five star rating. Out of the two I like the clear TIKI with stainless steel because the side white body light is perfect as a stand-up area light source on flat surface. I don't see as much use for a red and blue body light. Red light might be good in car at night but that's about it for me.

Awsome little light

I got 3 of these, 1 for myself and 2 for my wife and her coworker. I've come to expect exceptional things from Nitecore and this light is all that and more. My wife uses hers at work in a vascular lab because they keep the lights really low and she needed a small light to find stuff during the procedures. The battery life is better than expected and thankfully it has a usbc charging port. It charges fairly quick and for my money a excellent edc.

Nice light

Pros:Small, light weight, rechargeable, multiple brightness levels.60 lumens seems almost as bright but more narrow than another flashlight at 100 lumens I bought with this.Cons:Hard to click switch fast enough to turn on. (2x for main light, 3x for UV)Since it is rechargeable you can plug it into battery pack I have for iPhone etc. Push button might cause it to turn in momentary mode, when packed?Low mode (1 lumen) might be too dim, but you can just turn it up temporally or recharge. I have walked down a hallway on lowest, but small dark items on bed were hard to see on lowest mode. Probably good for looking in purse/wallet in a theater?Owned for a couple of weeks.

This little keychain is pretty cool

My buddy gave me one and I was skeptical at first won't lie hooked it onto my keychain just in good faith and then after was looking for my keys and seen something glowing and it was the little light so it helped me find My keys LOL. Shane, I started to play with it. It flashes has different modes. Has these two little lights on it that I just figured out it's just all around. Pretty cool for keychain light. Very bright not let down buy it at all

Tiki GITD Keychain light

The Tiki GITD goes everywhere on my keychain & is the size of a tiny AA battery. It has 4 brightnesses, a flashing mode, and head-stands as a reading light. Flipping on the UV beam for 2 seconds makes it glow-in-the-dark so I can find it at night in a dark hotel room. The new version uses the popular USB-C charging port. The 300 lumen turbo setting is amazingly bright. Friends are impressed that I can easily locate a dropped object in restaurants, cars, and airplanes. When getting picked up at a crowded airport, the flash setting allows the driver to locate me instantly! I've gifted this finest of keychain lights to a handful of friends and family.

Tiny, powerful, practical

I got the TIKI as a direct replacement for my Goal Zero Lighthouse Micro Flash. I quite like the GZ, but I wanted it in a lighter footprint for backpacking. The TIKI does that and more! Not only is it multi-purpose (flashlight + lantern), but it is insanely light, it glows in the dark (not all night, but still), and the carabiner-style keychain means I can hang it above me (whereas the GZ has a closed-loop hanger, useless in a tent or hammock because I can't hook it onto anything). Plus, it's BRIGHTER than the GZ (albeit the TIKI steps down after 30 sec or so in the highest lumen mode). It is also easier to operate than the GZ, whose button is difficult to locate and a strain to engage.So in short, I got everything I was looking for and even more.I've ended up ... MoreI got the TIKI as a direct replacement for my Goal Zero Lighthouse Micro Flash.

That's how small this is. I accidentally bought myself my first EDC light! Thank you NiteCore!

Top Quality light! A tiny powerhouse for a tiny price.

I have used several different key ring size models from this company. This is the best deal overall for EDC. The tiny key ring supplied is difficult to put on, but it is a must. You will misplace this light if it is not attached to your larger key ring. I use a Nite Ize micro-lock carabiner between the tiny ring and my main ring for relatively easy removal for separate use. Just remember where you put it down when detached.Just press and hold the button for full power momentary use, release and it goes off. This is a very bright light for its size, and battery life is pretty good for its size and output. Two quick presses for ultra low (often all that is needed to find the keyhole, etc.), additional presses cycle through low, med, and high. Hold button for off. ... MoreI have used several different key ring size models from this company. This is the best deal overall for EDC.

Two quick presses for ultra low (often all that is needed to find the keyhole, etc.), additional presses cycle through low, med, and high. Hold button for off. Pretty simple to use the front lightThe side lights offer some capabilities that most other lights cannot provide.Three quick presses turn on the UV sidelight The UV light lets you check for counterfeit currency, see organic stains, spot certain insects (scorpions, etc), and see other fluorescent items. Your kids' room will be very colorful. Also, you never knew how dirty your rug was until you hit it up close with the UV sidelight. Warning ;Using a UV light in your hotel room will stop you from ever staying in another hotel room againAnother press (while the UV light is on) gets you to the high CRI LED output to help with color critical uses such as electrical wiring, painting,etc., and any other use where seeing the colors correctly really matters. It also works well as an area light. The near sunlight wavelength is easier on the eyes for reading, etc. Another press starts the CRI LED blinking at around once per second for use as a beacon. Another press turns the light off. This is all much easier than it sounds.An excellent and very useful key ring companion that you don't notice until it is needed.

Worth the cost if the battery pack lasts a reasonable length of time.

I normally avoid lights with non replaceable battery packs, but I added this one to reach the point where free shipping kicks in. And there was 25% off on Nitecore, which is probably the most innovative of all the flashlight manufacturers. I like the UI, except it's sometimes hard to get the 2 quick clicks or 3 quick clicks to take. But that feature has the advantage of preventing it from turning on in your pocket. I like the click-and-hold to quickly get the brightest setting, which is surprisingly bright. At first I found myself wishing they'd skipped the extra lights on the side and used the space for a bigger battery pack. The UV seemed too weak to be of much use, but I found that it worked great for lighting up the invisible ink I apply to electronic items like ... MoreI normally avoid lights with non replaceable battery packs, but I added this one to reach the point where free shipping kicks in.

It's very small and would be a good light to hang on a key chain. Whether it would be worth the full price depends on how long the battery pack lasts before having to just throw it away.
