Compact CREE XP-E2 flashlight

The NICRON N5 uses a 3 W CREE XP-E2 R3 LED rated for 50000 hours of life. Its aircraft-aluminium body with Type II anodising resists drops and corrosion while weighing 85 g without batteries. A tail-cap switch cycles through high, low and strobe modes for household tasks, maintenance work or outdoor use.

Sustained output and runtime

On the highest setting the light delivers 200 lumen and throws a beam to 175 m. Maximum runtime reaches 13 hours when powered by three AAA cells, so the output remains useful across a full night of work or camping. The IP65 rating means rain and dust will not interrupt operation during extended use.

Three AAA cell power requirement

The flashlight only accepts three AAA batteries, giving a maximum length of 114 mm and diameter of 30 mm. Buyers who want a built-in rechargeable pack or a single-cell format will need a different model. Operating temperature spans -20 °C to 50 °C for reliable cold-weather starts.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the Cree XP-E2 LED generate during a 13-hour runtime?

The light runs for up to 13 hours on High mode; the aircraft-grade aluminium body and Type II anodizing act as a heat sink to keep the 3W emitter within its normal -20 °C to 50 °C operating range.

What batteries must I supply to power the N5?

You need three standard AAA cells; the flashlight body measures 114 mm long by 30 mm wide and weighs 85 g without them.

Will the tail-cap switch and IP65 rating still work after years of occasional use?

The Cree XP-E2 R3 LED is rated for 50 000 hours, the impact-resistant PC lens and anodized aluminium body resist drops, and the tail switch cycles through High, Low and Strobe modes reliably.
