This is my first flashlight and my first review on this site. Be gentle. 
Nitecore T2s
I was looking for a very small flashlight so I could carry/put it on my keys. I came upon this on IlluminationSupply and it looked perfect. It was small, had a good output, and I liked the looks.
Shipping, Handling, and Packaging
I ordered on the 29th and my package was sent out the 30th. I received it on the 3rd. So shipping from CA to DE was pretty fast. 2nd order from IlluminationSupply and it was great. :beer:
It came wrapped in the usual gray packaging from the UPS, the box contained an extra o-ring, a clip, and a ring for your keys.
It also included a warranty card and an instruction manual.
I have to say I love Nitecore's boxing, I also have their Intellicharger i4 and love it.
Technical Information
• LED: CREE XP-E (R2)
• Maximum output: 50 lumens
• Battery: One AAA battery
• Aluminum reflector ensures a balanced beam profile
• Toughened ultra-clear mineral glass with anti-reflective coating
• Aero-grade aluminum alloy construction
• HA III military grade hard-anodized
• Function selection via rotating head
• Waterproof in accordance with IPX-8 (two meters)
• This product has attained European CE and RoHS certification
Size of the Flashlight
The sizing was the most important feature I was looking for, next to output, and this flashlight is the perfect size.
Almost 3" long means it's TINY. It is very well built though and has a nice solid feeling when you hold it.
Pictures of different modes
High. (50 lumens, 1 hour and 30 runtime)
Medium. (20 Lumens, 3 hour and 30 runtime)
Low. (2 lumens, 28 hour runtime)
It also has a flashing warning signal mode.
To select the different modes you just turn the light on, then quickly turn it off and then on again to select the different modes.
High-Med-Low-Warning Signal.
Mini Maglite Comparison
Size comparison in hand.
Mini Maglite focused.
Mini + Nitecore T2s high mode.
Mini Maglite is the only flashlight I had laying around I could compare it to. It's also ancient so I don't know how accurate the comparison might be.
Finishing Pictures and Thoughts
Beam in smoke.
On my keys.
All in all, this is a great little flashlight. It more then met my needs and is perfect for any little uses I have for it. The only complaint I have about it is the threads could be a little smoother, but that's minor and fixable.
It cost me $30.04 with shipping from IlluminationSupply. Some might find that a little pricey for such a small flashlight, but it really is worth it. Not to mention you'd be supporting a great company if you got it from IS.
Well that finishes it I suppose.
I suck at formatting so hopefully it looks okay and my pictures aren't too big. Let me know how I did, if I need more information, etc. :wave:
