The term information refers to the operation with a 18650 battery.
The TN12 is ideally suited for outdoor operation, since the IPX-8 standard waterproof (2m). The housing is made of aircraft aluminum and also holds so falls without much damage was. The glass that the CREE XM-L2 U2 LED is covering ultra clear tempered and anti-reflective, which makes for a very uniform luminous flux.
Other quality features include super-made thread which comes supplied well greased. In addition, the battery contacts are gold-plated to allow optimal contact.
What the memory function, which stores the last active mode and enable the new me else like about the lamp personally on automatically (except Strobo mode). In addition, I like how the range was chosen between the light modes. Since each mode also has a practical sense.
Compared to other similar flashlights like the Fenix PD35 and NiteCore P12 I would see the TN12 slight advantage, although the other two coming close behind.
A trifle, which I find not so good, is the method of fitting the belt clip. I would have liked that you can attach the clip in both directions, because I prefer the glass wearing my flashlights upward to protect the lamp head from being scratched.
