    I appreciate the video but any flashlight made to be called a "THROWER" with an sft40 & a TIR lens only claiming to throw a little over 200 meters in my eyes is an epic fail. I also have the wurkkos ts11 (orange like yours) and it's range is over 600 meters. I bought the Mateminco A1s for $20 throws 711 meters. I have sst40 flashlights with crenulated reflectors that throw 200 + meters so I just have a hard time understanding how this company puts this light on the market calling it a "THROWER". It should be but I feel as though they did something wrong. They should easily be getting twice the distance out of that light. 1500 lumens is plenty of power to throw that beam further. Aside of that I love the build I love the look and the video was great I appreciate your presentation.

    Looks like a decent light. Tail standing and a reversible pocket clip would give it more functionality. Also wish the usb port was on the battery and not on the light. Ports can fail and it would be better on the consumable item(the battery) and not the light, should the port decide to fail.

It can also run primaries or 16340 batteries and includes an adapter for them with the light. The only way the battery is proprietary is that you need an Olight battery to use the included magnetic charging cable. But if you want to use any other 18350, 16340 or CR123a it works with them.

    If you are serious about your EDC, and serious about quality light choices, you will never go wrong with an Olight. I have a ton of them, and they are unequaled in quality build, fit, and finish. I would argue that their UI is the best available. Single-click to turn on, press and hold to cycle between low/medium/high, double-click for turbo, triple-click for strobe. EZPZ. Other brands get so convoluted with their UI, but Olight is always simple and reliable. I've been carrying the Arkfeld Pro as my EDC light since it came out, and it is my favorite torch of all time. I ordered the Arkfeld Ultra and the Perun 3 (with the free Sphere when ordered through the app for Silver+ members), and I can't wait to use the Ultra as my EDC and the Perun 3 headlamp as my evening dog-walking carry. I know some folks find Olight products "expensive," but they really aren't considering the extremely high quality and long life, and the phenomenal customer service (I bought the Javelot when it came out, and the one I got had some charging issues likely due to a faulty battery. They sent me a full replacement Javelot+battery, and let me keep the "faulty" device, which works just fine after buying a new battery for it).
