Overview
The Noxon Anark is Modlite's flat, pocket-friendly EDC light with a dedicated high button and a dedicated low button, no mode cycling, no long-press menus. High is 1,000 lumens at 18,000 candela for 2.5 hours. Low is 80 lumens at 1,000 candela for 17 hours.
A side-mounted weather-sealed USB-C port charges the internal cell. A reversible pocket clip supports bezel-up or bezel-down. The lockout is triggered by holding both buttons for three seconds and is confirmed by a red blink. The interface is explicitly a response to the common complaint that premium EDC lights still ship with cycling UIs.
The Anark is the easiest Modlite to recommend for buyers who want the brand experience without the $300 weapon-light price of the PLHv2 handheld. Throw is modest at 18K candela, so this is a close-to-medium range ID light, not a reach-out thrower.
