Review: لا يوجد معة بطاريات ؟ ولا تستطيع شحنة والاضاءة سئ لا انصح به Review: Pros and why I bought it: 1) swivel head, tho using it now 7 mos as a mechanic, sometimes wish it could bend 180degrees. lol Maybe it's just luck but I've not had any issues with the swivel mechanism. And I grab the light out of my holster by the light end 99% of the time. 2) magnet base - very strong as advertised. Wish they were all like this. 3) use of removable (18650 and I thought, 21700) rechargeable batteries. 4) UV capability. This is a real plus for a mechanic and probably others. 5) quality of materials - great body and crosshatch for non-slip grip. Unfortunately, there are some cons: 1) 18650 battery life - it just isn't very long. Even with an hour or so a day the battery just doesn't last long enough. Which is why I decided to go with a 21700 battery. 2) doesn't play well with 21700 battery - It fits like it was made for it and totally fixes the run time issue. However, Nicron does not advertise using it in the light. probably due to the issues I'm now having. The battery cap has to be tightened down quite hard to get reliable operation. And even then I've found myself tightening it every time I use it to keep it turned on. Very annoying. 3) Tho I like its heft, it is quite heavy. And large. Not a pocket light at all. I use a holster but it's a PITA to take out and put back in. 4) I'll lose the UV capability if I dump this light altogether - I've already purchased another brand swivel light that is half the weight and 1/3 the length. But it does not have UV. So I'll probably switch this light back to 18650s for UV use as its runtime wouldn't need to be as much as the white light. Overall a good light if runtime isn't an issue and size/weight doesn't matter. ## Features - DUAL FUEL, DUAL-CYCLE SWITCH-Only 3 presses to go through the most commonly used modes of high-low-Off. UV Mode is designed as a hidden mode.

NICRON N81 is using AAbatteries, and can use 185650 lithium battery. NICRON Customer Satisfaction Team **Q: My n72-uv sometimes blinks 3 times, once a second, every 30 seconds continuously when using high beam white light. is this normal?** A: I do not think so, as my flashlight also did this, somehow I needed to reset it back to factory, so I removed the batteries for two days and held down the power button for 2 seconds, then made sure the batteries were fully charged, it worked then, back to normal, hope this helps out. **Q: Is there a micro usb / type c port to charge the flashlight? thanks** A: I cannot find any charging port on the light. **Q: Will this work with 3 10440 lithium cells? Would that be more powerful than 1 18650?** A: Dear Amazon customers, Thank you for leaving a message on Amazon. To answer your question, can this be used for 3 10440 lithium batteries? This is not possible because the internal space of the flashlight is limited and there are risks in this way. I hope you do not test this way. Also, please note that we provide a 12-month warranty for the flashlight. If you have anything you can do for you in the future, please let us know-we are always ready to help you!

It stands about 6.5" high and is about 1 1/8" in diameter. The rubber coated button clicks easily and it could be activated by an item packed close to it, but for my purposes, that's not an issue, and the button as it is is a pleasure to use. The light is very bright and the UV led is useful. The UV is not as powerful as a multi UV LED light that I have that (also 18650), but that light has no white light. This light's UV easily caused an Arizona scorpion specimen to glow. The 90 degree head is adjustable to any angle between straight vertical to horizontal. The base magnet is quite strong and won't fall off of a car body even when fully horizontal. A 3 cell AA adapter is included, as is a plastic cylinder that an 18650 battery fits into so you don't need to make a DIY cardboard spacer to keep the battery from rattling. The "pocket" clip appears to be powder coated and is strong enough and measures 1 6/8" before it begins to taper. A thin 2" web belt would fit. The UV version has 2 positions of white light and one UV setting. No flashing. Read the instructions on this for details. Works great. I picked up the non UV version also which is marginally brighter. ## Frequently Bought Together - NICRON UV Flashlight, N72-UV 800LM White Light, Freely Switch Between White Light and UV Light Detector for Dog Urine, Wet Stains Bed Bugs,Camping, Outdoor,Maintain (18650/AAA Not Included) - Flashlight, NICRON N7 600 Lumens Tactical Flashlight, 90 Degree Ip65 Waterproof Led Mini Flashlight 4 Modes- Best High Lumens Are For Camping, Outdoor, Hiking （Not including Batteries）Gift - NICRON N73 Portable LED Pen Flashlight with 4Mode,Clip,Magnet, 150 Lumen 90 Degree Twist Angle Pocket Penlight with IPX4 Waterproof, Excellent for Tight Space,Mechanic, 2AAA Battery Include --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/345921789-nicron-uv-flashlight-n72-uv-800lm-white-light-freely-switch](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/345921789-nicron-uv-flashlight-n72-uv-800lm-white-light-freely-switch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
