Nitecore CI7
The Nitecore CI7 is a round-body LED handheld light rated at 2,500 lumens and 35,000 candela, with White and IR output. That candela figure works out to an effective positive identification distance of 64 yards and visual impairment out to 9 yards, both calculated from the published beam data. It runs on 21700 and is rechargeable. It weighs 6.5 oz in an aluminum body 6.3 inches long. Measured against the 362 handheld lights in the index, it lands on the brighter side for output (2,500 lumens), about in the middle for beam intensity (35,000 candela), on the heavier side for weight (6.5 oz), and on the pricier side for price ($150). It is one of 75 entries in the index that qualify as a light in the same 2,000 to 3,999 lumen class. The closest listed comparison is Nitecore MH40 Pro, the same brand's light in the same 2,000 to 3,999 lumen class, priced at $150.
