SC53c N Neutral White High CRI AA Flashlight

$79.00

Meet the SC53c N Neutral White High CRI AA Flashlight. It runs a Nichia 519A-V1 emitter at 4000K with a CRI of 93 — warm, accurate color rendering that makes a real difference when you're working up close or navigating in the dark. Three user-selectable main levels with programmable sub-levels give you everything from 207 lumens on high down to a 0.01 lumen moonlight mode that stretches runtime to over four months. The precision-machined unibody aluminum casing, Gorilla Glass 5 lens, and IPX8 waterproofing mean it's built to take a beating. Runs on a single AA NiMH, lithium, or alkaline cell.

  • SC53c Operations

    Operations
    This light has 3 main levels (High, Medium, and Low) and a beacon-strobe mode. Each main level can be programmed to one of its two sub-levels, and the second sub-level of each main level can be further programmed to different brightness levels.

    Basic Operation
    1 click — Turns the light on to High, or turns it off.
    2 clicks — Turns the light on to Medium.
    3 clicks — Enters beacon/strobe mode.
    Press and hold (0.6s+) — Turns the light on to Low, then cycles through Medium and High. Release at the desired level.

    Advanced Operation & Configuration
    Press and hold to cycle from Low → Medium → High. The cycle always starts from Low regardless of your current level. Release at the desired level.
    Double-click at any main level to toggle between its two sub-levels (H1/H2, M1/M2, L1/L2). Sub-level selections are memorized through power cycles and battery changes.
    To program the second sub-level (H2, M2, or L2) to a different brightness: double-click 6 times at that main level to enter configuration. Each subsequent double-click cycles through available brightness levels. Single click to save and exit. Settings are memorized through power cycles and battery changes.
    Battery Indicator — From off, 4 quick clicks. The main LED flashes 1–4 times to indicate remaining battery capacity.
    Beacon/Strobe — 3 clicks from off to enter. Double-click to cycle through beacon and strobe options. Settings are memorized through power cycles and battery changes.

    Mode Groups
    This light has three mode groups: G5 (factory default), G6, and G7. From off, select with 5 clicks (G5), 6 clicks (G6), or 7 clicks (G7). Selections are memorized through power cycles and battery changes.

    All mode groups share the same basic controls:
    H can be either H1 or H2 | M can be either M1 or M2 | L can be either L1 or L2
    From off: 1 click → H | 2 clicks → M | Press and hold → cycles L, M, H

    G5 — H1, M1, and L1 are fixed. H2, M2, and L2 are programmable.

    G6 & G7 — All six levels (H1, H2, M1, M2, L1, L2) are fully programmable across 12 available brightness levels. Double-click 6 times at any level to enter programming mode. Double-click to go up one level, triple-click to go down. Single click to exit.

    Factory Reset — Three consecutive 5-clicks (or 6-clicks, 7-clicks) from off resets G5 (or G6, G7) to factory defaults.
