What exactly constitutes an excellent EDC product? I think the most important thing besides being easy to carry is that the functionality should be practical and powerful enough. For example, the vtiger NIO K1 mini EDC keychain flashlight that I just purchased is a vivid example.
Although the body is extremely compact and easy to carry, it has achieved comprehensive functionality; Below is a sharing of the user experience of this ultra mini EDC flashlight.
Let's take a look at the packaging design first. The yellow packaging is relatively simple, and the basic appearance design of the flashlight is also engraved on the front.
The VTiger NIO K1 mini EDC keychain flashlight is designed in three colors: black, gray, and blue. The one I bought has a black design.
I should mention in advance that vtiger is an emerging domestic EDC manufacturer, and the product I purchased offers an extremely high cost-performance ratio.
Packing list: Type-C charging cable, keychain, vtiger Weihu K1 mini EDC keychain flashlight, instruction manual.
Although the product's cost-effectiveness is outstanding, the design of Yingnian really impressed me.
Firstly, the integrated ultra-thin all metal body has an excellent tactile feel.
Secondly, the hardware details are also very well done.
The power on/off button is equipped with an indicator light to display the current battery status. Short press to turn on/off, and long press to switch between three brightness modes.
The sturdy body is just one aspect, which can effectively prevent falls, while also supporting IP66 waterproof rating, overall performance is very balanced.
More importantly, it was equipped with dual lights!
You should know that although it is very compact in size and weighs only 38 grams, the interior is designed with dual cores, using high-performance LED lights. The highest brightness can reach 800 lumens, and the highest illumination distance can reach 130 meters!
It can be said that the hardware configuration is really full!
The back is also designed with a clip, which allows the VTiger Tiggo K1 mini EDC keychain flashlight to be easily fixed on the belt or brim, making it easy to carry and increasing the product's usage scenarios.
The current remaining battery level can be easily seen through the indicator light, and with such a compact body, the maximum battery life can be as long as 10.5 hours!
That's right, the battery life is also very strong.
There are three types of brightness, with the highest brightness reaching 800 lumens and a battery life of 60 minutes; Medium brightness of 150 lumens, with a battery life of 2 hours; Low brightness of 10 lumens, with a battery life of up to 10.5 hours.
And it also supports flashing function. Double clicking the power button can instantly turn on flashing, and the high brightness of 800 lumens can also achieve a 45 minute battery life.
What surprised me the most was that the VTiger NIO K1 mini EDC keychain also features a magnetic adsorption function at the rear, which expands its application scenarios!
Many hardware parameters have been mentioned, so what is the actual usage effect?
We can compare the irradiation conditions of low, medium, and high levels simultaneously.
As can be seen, the lowest brightness is sufficient for travel, medium brightness is very suitable, and high brightness is indeed high lumens. The lighting effect is far beyond that of a mobile phone flashlight.
It is interesting that the magnetic adsorption function at the rear has indeed increased a lot of convenience in use.
As long as there is metal, it can be absorbed, which makes it useful for repairing lighting at home. This way, the vtiger NIO K1 mini EDC keychain flashlight can also be used.
Then let's take a look at the powerful lighting effect of the vtiger NIO K1 mini EDC keychain flashlight!
You can see that the irradiation distance is indeed very far! Moreover, the irradiation range is also very large, and this effect instantly kills the phone's flash.
This also answers many people's doubts, why do we need EDC flashlights when smartphones already have flashlights? It can be seen that professional use also requires professional tools.
Like our community, the ambient lighting is already very dim, and the undulations on the hillside are also significant. Having such an EDC flashlight at night clearly provides great convenience for travel.
I think the best adjective for this vtiger NIO K1 mini EDC keychain flashlight is' the illuminating little steel cannon in the palm of your hand '!
Powerful functionality, comprehensive performance, and extremely high cost-effectiveness, it is definitely worth buying!
