Runs on a rechargeable 14500 over USB-C, or any AA battery you can buy anywhere. The first Nitecore light with the UHi 25 LED.
Recharge it. The included NL1411R 1,100mAh 14500 charges over USB-C right inside the light and delivers the full 800 lumens, so a power bank is all you need on the road.
Or drop in an AA. When you are far from a charger, a single AA from any shop, garage or hotel desk keeps you running. Lithium, alkaline or rechargeable AA all work.
That is the difference between a light you trust on a trip and one that dies at the wrong moment.
The NiteLab UHi 25 LED drives 800 lumens and a 250-metre throw, a long reach for a light this small. A smooth reflector and precision optics keep the beam tight where you point it.
Three levels cover the work: a 50-lumen low for close tasks that runs up to 10 hours, a 300-lumen mid for walking, and the full 800-lumen high when you need to see across the car park or down the trail.
NiteLab developed the UHi 25 for professional portable lighting, with a round emitting surface that pushes high beam intensity and a clean, far-reaching beam.
Paired with a smooth reflector and Precision Digital Optics, it gives the MT1A Pro the output and throw of a much larger torch in a body that disappears in a pocket.
USB-C top-up on the included 14500, or a shop-bought AA when you are off-grid. Most lights lock you into one or the other.
The UHi 25 LED roughly doubles the output of a typical AA compact and throws to 250 metres, so it earns its place as a primary light.
IP68 means 2 metres submersible, well beyond splash resistant. It keeps working through a downpour or a dropped-in-the-creek moment.
52 grams with the battery, a two-way clip, and tail-stand capability for hands-free area light. It travels light and works everywhere.
A full press turns the light on and off. A half press steps through the three brightness levels, so you set the output you want without losing your grip or your place.
The U-shaped switch guards against accidental activation in a bag, and a brightness memory brings back your last level every time you switch on.
The body is machined from aero-grade aluminium with an HA III hard-anodised finish that resists scratches, and a double-sided scratch-resistant lens coating keeps the beam clean.
IP68 sealing handles 2 metres of submersion and the light shrugs off a 2-metre drop, so rain, rivers and the bottom of a bag are all a non-issue.
Recharge over USB-C in the hotel, or buy an AA at any shop when you cannot. Never without light abroad.
52 grams on a two-way clip, 800 lumens on tap when an ordinary evening needs more light.
250-metre throw and IP68 sealing for trails and camp, with tail-stand for hands-free area light.
A torch that runs on the most common battery on earth is the one you want when the power is out.

Yes. Drop in any AA, lithium, alkaline or rechargeable, and the light works. Output tops out at 200 lumens on an AA versus 800 on the included 14500, which is the trade for using a battery you can buy anywhere.
The included NL1411R 14500 battery has a USB-C port built in, so you charge the light directly from any USB-C cable or power bank. No separate charger or cradle needed.
Yes. The MT1A Pro is rated IP68, which means it handles 2 metres of submersion, not just rain. A spare O-ring is included to maintain the seal over time.
