- I know some of you are in this exact situation, comparing the P10i vs MH12S vs the MH10S.
All of them are 1800 lumens, same battery and same USB-C charging. The difference are subtle, but significant depending on the type of user you are.
I'll go through the subtle differences so you can make a better decision on which light fits you best.

This is a correct comparison!
There's another very important difference between the P10i and the MH12S. If you want to use rechargeable batteries, you can use _any_ 21700 from any brand in the MH12S. But you can only use the proprietary Nitecore rechargeable battery in the P10i. I already own the MH12S. Today, December 2023, I considered buying the P10i, but could not find spare Nitecore batteries for it anywhere online. Not even at the Nitecore Store.
So already finding extra batteries for the P10i has become an issue. I need a tactical light at my job. I currently use the MH12S. It is not ideal for that purpose. But it gets the job done. Plus, 5 years from now or 10 years from now, I can put any 21700 battery into it; and it will work. That is important to me. As far as mode memory on the MH12S, no problem! Just put the light on the highest setting each and every single time before switching it off.
Thank you for doing this comparison. There are not too many channels that do this or do it for what you are looking for. I wanted the p10i but at the end of the day it was just a little longer. I knew the cap was bigger bc of the two buttons but that didn’t bother me. Great reviews very helpful!!!!
Thank you for this. Very helpful and tells exactly what the differences are without too much waffling!
I bought the Mh12s and it is my first nitecore flashlight. I hope it will be a good flashlight. It didn't arrive yet, but I believe its good enough
Update?
@@user-md3is4dq2d I got one, its amazing
My perfect flashlight would be something like the P10i, with the strike bezel of the P20i, and finally adding 3 user selectable modes like the P20UV V2.
Well, I never carry less than 2 flashlights anyway. I got the MH12s in my sling bag and Olight S1R ii in my pocket all the time
Not only is 2 flashlights always better than 1, it's not heavy at all if you carry some kind of a bag on you anytime
@@aggaviriyo790 I have the Tiki on my sling bag and my unintended 2nd flashlight is the one that's part of my 18650 power bank
@@rogerp7030 that's a good setup for sure
we want MH12s with strobe ready button...
at least double click mode button for instant strobe
MH10S room for improvement put magnetic at the back
Mh12s vs mh25s what's the difference?
Bigger head and longer throw
Too bad the mh12s don't have direct access to low in the everyday mode.
Hi can you suggest me flashlights which has flood like beam ? Would be very grateful.

Hi man really love your content! Too bad cant travel to SG to visit your store. For mix beam with 1000+ Lms which light is the best
From your requirements, MH12S or mh12 v2 is king at the moment. Unless you have more specific use then it might change. 👍😄
@@NitecoreSG more for daily and tactical if possible if go out for outdoor camping as well 😁
@@SynsterGates666 then yes, those 2 lights I mentioned are perfect
@@NitecoreSG thanks a lot ma man! Looking forward for the border open so can visit you at SG!
@@NitecoreSG One last question man if you need to choose between p20i and mh12s which one is the better one?
Can the Mh12s last much longer than the p10i?
Removal of user selectable mode is downgrade for P i series from P v2
Mh12s has tactical mode to come on in high like the p10i
Yes it does
Is there any 18650 oder 21700 powered Nitecore Light, which can be powered on in the highest or lowest mode with a dedicated setting? For example the End-Button always starts high, and the side switch always starts in low? For my type of use, I came to the conclusion, that in most cases I only use a low mode. But from time to time I use the highest mode. And when I do, I want to start the lamp immediately in the high mode, without the need to switch through different levels of brightness.
Have. EA45S, MH27UV, EA41, SRT7GT can do it too. Those are the dual button models.
@@NitecoreSG Thank You. The MH12S can do it, too?
To bad the mh10s does not have a magnetic tailcap :(
Some of the guys glue on a circular Neo magnet, so it’s quite possible 👍
@@NitecoreSG I don't think it's practical to do that as the light is too chunky and heavy. If the magnet is too strong, you risk destroying electronic device. But if it's too weak it's no use so yeah
@@NitecoreSG make a magnetic tail cap as a separate accessory, please.
Вот MT21C был отличный фонарь, но прослужил мне меньше других из-за конструкции, меньше года и провода к светодиоду износились, жаль его дальше не апгрейдят. Теперь угробил MH10V2, походу надо переходить на S версию.
Why the abrupt end? Were you going for a 3 minute endtime or something?
These days there really is no excuse to not have mode memory in every light.
I have a question so at first I want to buy a mh40gtr but then I realize it was big I was looking for a long throw/flood edc light and I came across the mh27 and the mh25gt which are really good thrower flashlights but it was just a throw flashlight I want to use a mix beam flashlight that can still throw while also being bright up close do you think the p10i is the best for me or should I get a different flashlight
Check the new MH25S. It’s a throw beam but still portable size. MH25GT will work as well.
@@NitecoreSG thanks man I’ll check it out
@@NitecoreSG I think I need a mix beam because I just check the reviews and it’s more of a thrower I need mix beam like the p10i it’s perfect good price good brightness and good flood
@@NitecoreSG you think I should go for it
Flashligh so bright but...
The battery only last 20 to 30 minutes..
Nitecore is best for brightness competition but not for hunting, search or rescue.
That's what the brightness modes are for; If you want longer runtime, run it at a lower brightness. Battery capacities are standard across the industry so the only way to get a longer runtime is to bring more batteries or get a beam optimized for your use; something like the MH40GTR, P30, New P30, will reach far at a lower brightness, solving your runtime issue. Hope that helps!
Are there fake Nitecore? Or has it been imitated or counterfeited?
