The MCH-HC3 delivers the formidable performance of our REIN weapon light in a compact, handheld design. Building upon the widely popular MCH platform, we have elevated its capabilities to an impressive 1,250 lumens and 100,000 candela. This powerful output allows the HC3 to project light over remarkable distances and easily pierce through photonic barriers, all while providing a generous field of usable spill light for enhanced peripheral awareness. Engineered to excel in a wide range of scenarios, it is the ultimate handheld tool for everything from everyday carry and outdoor adventures like camping and hiking to demanding strategic situations.

Crafted from ultra-durable yet lightweight 6061-T6 aluminum with a Type III Hard Coat anodized finish, the MCH-HC3 features a robust three-piece construction. Its reliability is further bolstered by an enhanced tailcap design, an improvement now standardized across the entire MCH line. Built to withstand harsh conditions, the HC3 carries an IPX-8 rating, meaning it can be fully submerged up to 100 feet for 24 hours. Proudly manufactured in the USA, it is also Buy American Act (BAA) certified.

The HC3 introduces a industry-first innovation: the Adjustable Negligent Discharge Protection system. This patented feature allows you to tailor the tailcap's button feel for any specific application?whether for deep-pocket carry, belt attachment, or use on a plate carrier?by simply swapping out the included ND protection rings. For secure carry, we developed a proprietary deep-carry pocket clip from heat-treated steel, providing the perfect tension. For those who prefer an alternative, the MCH remains fully compatible with aftermarket Thyrm? clips, such as the popular Switchback.

With 1,250 lumens and 100,000 candela at your command, the MCH-HC3 is capable of illuminating distant targets while maintaining excellent situational awareness up close. Its Dual Fuel compatibility offers exceptional flexibility, allowing the light to operate on either a single 18650 rechargeable battery or CR123 batteries. For optimal performance, we recommend using the included unprotected, flat-top 18650 battery. When switched to its low-power mode (10% output), the HC3 becomes an ideal administrative light, offering over six hours of runtime for tasks where extended illumination is needed, making it perfect for a bedside table, vehicle, or desk drawer. Please note that while the light supports most unprotected button-top cells, it has minimal compatibility with protected cells, which are not recommended. All performance metrics are fully tested to ANSI/PLATO-FL1 standards.

For unparalleled control, the MCH offers five programmable mode groups, which can be changed at any time. You can select from the following configurations: High-only; Low followed by High; High followed by Low; a three-mode sequence of Very Low, Medium, and High; or the reverse, starting with High.

Your purchase of the MCH-HC3 includes the flashlight itself, the deep-carry pocket clip, an 18650 rechargeable battery (Samsung 30Q), a charger and cable, three ND protection rings, and the assurance of a lifetime warranty.
