    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    ThruNite recently released a new addition to their Archer EDC line, the Archer Pro. Instead of using AA batteries like previous Archer models have, the Pro uses a 14500 lithium-ion battery for additional output\u2026 but it\u2019s sealed in. It also comes in cool white and neutral white, which is nice as you don\u2019t always get to choose. Read on for more details!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Archer Pro comes in one of ThruNite\u2019s new minimalist white boxes. Aside from making it hard to photograph on a white background, this new type of box is sealed with a glued down tear away flap. I was sent four lights to review (CW and NW variations of the Archer Pro and Mini) and not a single one opened cleanly. The tear strip, which was glued down, doesn\u2019t have a plastic strip behind it like mailing envelopes do, so it was impossible to rip it all the way off without it tearing into pieces. Not that it\u2019s the end of the world, but it doesn\u2019t appeal to me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
