Nichia Corporation is a highly regarded Japanese LED manufacturer. Its high-quality LEDs are well-known. Color temperature is a characteristic of light. It is used to quantify the color appearance of light sources. Flashlights use the smooth reflector when long-range light is important. This includes searchlights and thrower flashlights. The AR coating of the lens helps to reduce these reflections. It does this by changing the lens surface's refractive index.

The IYP25 Nichia uses multiple switches. The switches' placement and design determine this. They allow for one-handed operation. Mechanical switches often offer tactile feedback. Users can feel a distinct click or resistance when they press the switch. The rear switch of the IYP25 Nichia is rugged and durable. It can withstand harsh conditions and repeated use.
