I review the Nextorch P56 Forensic Flashlight with 6 different light sources. This is a fascinating light with uses that go far beyond what a normal flashlight is capable of. I go through what these special uses are and demonstrate them in this video.

Nextorch provided me a sample of the P56 for this review. I was not paid to make this video. I have not held back on any negative opinions of this light.

Nextorch P56 Video Transcript

General thoughts after a week of usage/size comparison/practicality/interesting things:
• This is a unique flashlight - it feels more like a specialist tool. Nextorch applies that same attention to detail to all their flashlights and the P56 is no different. This one is marketed as a professional forensic flashlight. It has a rotating switch allowing you to select from 6 different light sources.
• What do you get in the box?
• Comparison with other Nextorch flashlights

Overall Construction, LED, lens, bezel and reflector
• Excellent quality machining as always from Nextorch - no imperfections or sharp edges. Some simple cutouts on the head, body, and tailcap. No knurling.
• Anodising is the best in the business - matt back and extremely tough compared to my other lights. A bunch of lights came loose and were knocking around in my backpack recently when I was doing beam shots - the P56 was the only one that didn't get scratched up! The anodising is very grippy so even though there's no knurling, you don't notice. Tail switch + rotating side switch. The side switch is quite firm to prevent accidental mode switching. Firm pocket clip.
• 18650 with onboard charging, can also take 2xCR123 cells.
• Aspheric lens. LED brands not specified. However specifications for each are; Blue 450nm, UV 365nm, White, IR 850nm, Green 525nm, and Red 630nm. The rotating switch is mechanical and physically moves different LEDs in place when you turn it.

UI - modes
• Full press tailswitch for constant on. Half-press for momentary. Double half press for strobe.
• Rotate the dial to switch between white, blue, red, green, IR, UV

Performance - total output, beam profile, longevity, practicality
• Ceiling bounce test, CRI, CCT
• Large hotspot with minimal spill, even light in the hotspot

Considerations
• Specialized flashlight - it's not the best option if you want a walking or general-purpose light. The beam profile is narrow. You can still use it as a general light but there is almost no spill. The beam looks like a spotlight, just larger in diameter.
• Price - it's not cheap! But few lights compete with the P56 and have similar features. I like how easy it is to change to different colored beams, and there's no need to attach/detach colored filters like other forensic lights.
• Non-USB-C charging. But you can charge the cell in a separate charger and also use other brands of 18650 batteries.
• Goggles would be better if lenses made from glass.
• No battery indicator.

Verdict
This is an excellent forensic light if for some reason you're in the market for one! I like the convenience of being able to change colors so easily with one hand. The P56 produces a completely even beam which is important in a forensic light. The build quality is outstanding and it really feels like a professional tool.
