Nitecore names its lights with letters and numbers. Once you know the letters, the range makes sense.
The series letters
- MH (Multitask Hybrid): rechargeable torches with the charge port built in. MH1C, MH12, MH12GT, MH20GT, MH23.
- MT (Multi-Task): general purpose torches. MT20A, MT22C, MT40GT.
- P (Precise): tactical torches. P10GT, P16.
- HC: headlamps. HC30.
- LA and LR: lanterns. LR models are USB rechargeable. LA10, LA30, LR10, LR30.
- T, TIP, TINI and Tube: keychain and pocket lights. TIP 2017, TIP SS, TIP CU, TINI, Tube UV, T5s.
- E: explosion-proof rated lights. EF is a torch, EH is a headlamp. EF1, EH1, EH1S.
What GT means
GT is the long-throw version of a model. The MH12 reaches 232 metres. The MH12GT, same size, reaches 320 metres with a tighter beam.
Are these the latest models?
Much of our range is earlier-generation Nitecore, brand new in sealed packaging. Nitecore updates its models often, so the newest versions may have a different name or charge port. The rechargeable models here charge by micro USB. That is why the prices are what they are.
If you are replacing a torch you already own and love, this is where you find the same one.
