Nitecore TINI 3 torches
600 lumens on your keyring, from something that disappears into your pocket. That is the Nitecore TINI 3, successor to the TINI 2. Longer runtime, more light, and something you hardly ever see at this size: you set the colour temperature yourself.
Three colour temperatures in a keyring torch
The MCT system is what sets the TINI 3 apart. Both main LEDs switch between three colour temperatures. Warm 3000K light cuts through mist, rain and snow better and gives less glare. Neutral white at 4500K is the all-round setting for reading, tinkering and walking around. Cool white gives you the most range. On a torch of this size, that choice is unusual.
The housing is aluminium with an HAIII hard-anodised finish, the same treatment Nitecore uses on its larger torches. IP54 certified, resistant to a drop of two metres, and the metal ring at the back holds up to 30 kilos. So your keyring hangs from it safely.
Charging is via USB-C, with no loose batteries or chargers. At around 20 grams, you will not notice the torch next to your keys.
If you care less about light output and more about extra functions, the Nitecore TIKI adds UV light.
