Nitecore Tini 2 specifications

Flashlights are unlike ambient or overhead lights. They let you aim the light where you need it.

Body, materials, weight, colors

The Tini 2 is small, compact, and designed for ultra-portability. A balanced flashlight has even weight. It can be more comfortable to hold for longer and reduce hand fatigue. The aluminium body of the Tini 2 has excellent thermal conductivity. This means it can effectively dissipate heat generated by the flashlight's components. HAIII is a specific anodizing process. It creates a thicker and harder oxide layer than regular anodizing. The Tini 2 flashlight presents an extensive selection of vibrant colors: black, gray.

System, LED, lens, reflector

People know Osram LEDs for their high performance, energy efficiency, and reliability. The color temperature choice depends on the light's use and personal taste. The TIR lens of the Tini 2 can reduce light loss. To achieve high light output, it captures and redirects much of the emitted light. Some flashlights with electronic switches have programmable features. They allow users to customize the behavior of the flashlight.

Performance, flux, intensity, throw

500 lm can provide a decent amount of brightness and be suitable for many everyday tasks. 2000 cd can make things quite bright. It's enough for many everyday tasks. The throw is the distance in meters at which the flashlight produces a light intensity of 0.25 lux. The candela per lumen (cd/lm) ratio can be used to determine if a flashlight has a spot or flood type beam.

Software, user interface, modes

A flashlight's modes are different output settings or brightness levels. They can be chosen to meet different needs and preferences.

Features, battery, protections

The Tini 2 flashlight utilizes integrated 280 mAh Li-Ion battery as its power source. A battery indicator lets users see the battery status. It helps them decide when to recharge or replace the battery. A flashlight's USB charger can be very useful. This is especially true in emergencies. In such situations, access to power outlets may be limited. The flashlight detects when the battery's voltage has dropped to a certain level. Then, it reduces or cuts off the power.

The Tini 2 has thermal protection feature. These mechanisms track and regulate the flashlight's temperature as it operates. The "5" in the IP54 rating shows the level of protection against solid objects. It's for dust and foreign particles. This flashlight has an impressive impact resistance rating of 1 m. It is built to endure accidental drops or impacts.

Accessories, package contents

According to the ANSI/NEMA FL1 Standard, we measure the performance of the Tini 2 flashlight 30 seconds after switching on the light. The ANSI/NEMA FL1 2009 Standard is a set of flashlight performance guidelines.
