Nitecore NWL20 21700 Lantern

The Nitecore NWL20 is a high-performance, multi-functional work light designed for demanding outdoor and emergency applications. Built for reliability and versatility, it combines a powerful 600-lumen COB floodlight with a focused LED spotlight, giving users two distinct lighting modes in one compact unit. Whether you're setting up camp, working on a vehicle at night, or navigating through a dark trail, the NWL20 adapts to your needs with ease.

The light’s standout feature is its fully adjustable magnetic base, which allows the torch to be positioned at any angle between 0° and 180°. This flexibility means it can be mounted on a car hood, metal tent pole, or even a ladder, freeing up your hands for other tasks, while the built-in clip enables hanging from a backpack, tent frame, or gear loop.

The dual-light system is engineered for efficiency. The spotlight provides a concentrated beam with a maximum reach of 93 metres, ideal for long-distance visibility or illuminating distant objects. The floodlight offers broad, even illumination perfect for campsite setups, workspaces, or emergency zones. With three brightness levels—high, mid, and low—the floodlight balances performance and runtime, offering up to 78 hours on low mode. The spotlight delivers 290 lumens on high for 10 hours, or 125 lumens on low for 15 hours, allowing users to tailor output to their needs.

A key safety feature is the red light mode, which operates at 30 lumens in both constant and flashing configurations. This mode is specifically designed to preserve night vision, crucial for stargazing, night hiking, or tactical use. It also functions as an emergency signal or safety warning, making it invaluable in rescue scenarios or low-visibility conditions.

The NWL20 is built to withstand harsh conditions. It is rated IPX5, meaning it resists water jets from any direction, making it suitable for use in rain or damp environments. It has also been tested to survive drops from a height of 1 metre, ensuring durability during rough handling or outdoor adventures.

Powered by a high-capacity 5000mAh 21700 lithium-ion battery (included), the NWL20 offers extended runtime across all modes. The battery is fully rechargeable via the side-mounted USB-C port, compatible with standard chargers and power banks—ideal for users on the move. The Advanced Temperature Regulation (ATR) system continuously monitors internal temperature and adjusts output to prevent overheating, maintaining consistent performance and prolonging the life of the LED.

Measuring 216.7mm in length and weighing 224g, the NWL20 is lightweight and compact enough to carry in a backpack or pocket. Its robust construction and thoughtful design make it an essential tool for campers, hikers, mechanics, emergency responders, and anyone who needs reliable lighting in challenging environments.
