I am on a journey to find flashlights with outstanding value and size-to-performance ratios. This often involves testing that I like to call "almost science" as we try battery options, weigh pros and cons, and compare torches with one another.
With so many incredible lights on the market, I hope this channel can be of service to you on your own quest to find the right options for you. I appreciate your support and I hope you enjoy the content and community!

Barebones Outpost Lantern - Vintage-Style with Modern Technology
Very helpful! Thank you 👍
Great video. Can these flashlights be used while charging please? Considering using one as a light for cycling and need extended runtimes from an external battery? Thanks from UK 👍
Thanks and great question. Most modern torches can be charged whilst being used, while some others cannot. Best to make sure the option you’re looking for can be used while charging. Hope that info helps!
this is so cool!
Run time on turbo!!!?????
I made some videos to test this if you are interested. Basically the i3T can run on its max setting for about 20 minutes when using a 3.7v 10440 battery.
I watched it and I appreciate you answering! Need more olight videos
🙂👍 got it
nice review, thank you.
I use this torch at work when doing security rather than curry my big heavy main torch. I have never had a torch like this before but I am very impressed with this performance and it is coming so handy at work and at home. The main problem I have had is finding the correct way to press the buttons. Sometimes it worked sometimes it didn't but you have just cleared that up for me. Thank you very much
what battery do you recommend for the i3t EOS carbon fiber?
Good question. I don’t have experience with the carbon version unfortunately.
Thats awesome
Nice review. You sound like Jim halpert 😆
Oh snap! Thanks, I think. Haha 🤜🤛
I bought the Warrior Mini 2 and it’s cool. I will pick up the Warrior 3S next. I love that level of tactical flashlight
You da man
Glad the video can help. Olight gets the credit for the option to switch 👍
It's crazy my baton 4 smaller than both of those and puts out way way more😂
The Baton 4 is nice!
@PardonMyEnglish 💪💪💪
Thank you for this 👍🏼
Is it a skin or is it stuck on. It's a great price for both of them but I am not a fan or the Christmas theme.
Good question. It is not a skin that can be removed.
@@PardonMyEnglish dang it. It's such a good deal.
How to teardown?
Good question. Unfortunately I am not familiar with this process.
One of the kind of Olight series .. my come next few day..💪
Thanks
How do i get a simple time-automation working enabling my 2 Sphere´s (group) switch on at 08:00 and go off 08:30 ? the app is asking for strange setting of "condition" (one or all) by changing weather / temperature... really strange - dont get it to work by time-programming. thx!
Great flashlight both versions
PME, I tried using the discount code, but it did not work, is it still active? Also, have you used the Sofrin BLF LT1 Lantern? I am deciding what camping lantern to get for beach camping next year.
Hi Gabe, thanks for reaching out. I tried the code and it didn’t work for me either, so I have reached out to Wurkkos. They didn’t mention an expiration date when they provided it but I will get back to you when I hear back. As for the Sofirn BLF LT1, I don’t have personal experience but people seem to love those. Among the best in terms of runtime on the market for an electric lantern. And the ability to shift the tint is really nice. I have a couple of the smaller LT1S lanterns from Sofirn and really like them the BLF LT1 will have better runtime though and could probably last a long time when camping and maybe charge your phone here and there. Hope that info helps and I will get back to you about the code. P.S. If you are willing to wait longer for shipping, sometimes you can find great deals on Sofirn products on Temu or AliExpress.
Ok, the code did expire but Wurkkos has informed me that it has been extended through January 9th, 2025. Same code 😀
@@PardonMyEnglish Great! Thanks, I bought a couple using the code!
Well, I owe you a beer, my friend. 🍻 Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Olight good stuff, my first gen I gave to my brother yrs ago , I moved to Fenix, but both name was good light.. I like both ..💪
What’s that big orange flashlight in the back?
Good question. That is the Olight Prowess.
What’s that big orange flashlight in the back?
Olight Prowess
Someone said it looks like something batman would carry amd i cant agree more.
Very interesting and great to see the ability to swap power sources doesn't create a big change to the usability of the light.
This is a pretty cool flashlight especially having the ability to use two different power sources
Thx mane!
Ive bought 6 of these and own 3. I love them.
Good info! Thanks! My problem is I need a 18650 for my Slyde King flashlight BUT it's a flat top with BOTH positive and negative terminals on one end, this you didn't address. What is this called and where would I find one? Thanks!
Good question. That sounds like it could be a propriety battery specific to that brand. Is the battery branded by the flashlight company? If so, you may need to get an exact replacement from the flashlight company.
@@PardonMyEnglish unfortunately it's not branded. I tried through Nebo but got told it's discontinued.. Thanks
Hopefully you can find one on eBay or something!
Hi, After your videos I finally got Olight e3i and i3t v2 (zombie green) with good sale. Also ordered pkcell 10440 for i3t v2. What I can say, It is very simple - just two modes, no magnet tail cap, small runtime. Also I have a lot of different more workhorse lights like Fenix HM51r, E01, E12 v3, lumintop, skilhunt but... Finishing of my zombie green Olight i3t v2 is so beautiful that it now my edc flashlight instead of Fenix HM51r work-horse. It is a big enough for my hand and jacket's pocket. The clips is awesome, probably the best clip from my all flashlight. What also I found that for EDC olight i3e and i3t v2 have very comfortable light spot. It is not too wide and not throw. Just a perfect spot of edc and daily tasks. Olight produces so nice colors and patterns for it flashlight that this is respectable. I sometime take my olight and use as anti-stress =) Also friend of my mentioned, that in reality olight flashlights much more appealing comparing with images.
Just ordered a Gold WK03 for my mother as a Christmas present as since she liked the very visible color when I shown a photo to her and asked me for a flashlight. Its "Gold" but more Brass or Yellow Zinc plating looking to me. Without a battery its normally around ~$15.98 USD from the Wurkkos store (on the AliX-like marketplace in my region) and on sale its about ~$11.20 USD. With a lot of patience I collected whatever stuff to drop the price further to ~$4.24 USD, which is lower than the Black WK03 I got before. (Could still be lower but had to order already so it gets here before Christmas) If things go as planned my parents would both have a WK03. The Black one is already used by my father and the Gold one for my mother.
I thought UA-cam bunged up my comment, but it was just delayed
Very nice! I think these work and look fantastic 👍 Great gift idea and it sounds like you found quite a deal on it as well!
😂
Well worth it for mid 30's price.
I love your videos how you experimenting with diferent bateryes ,you are the first person that show the 10440 lifepo batery. I dinded now that exist so small cell at 3,2 volts thank you.keep up.😊
I prefer the low mode first, then if its not enough i click again.i have the i3t,i5t,i3t2 eos,i5r.such a great light. Please check out the fitorch ec20.😊
I love how its ramp up in the high mode, even slower its better, it helps the eye to adjust.great small torch.😊
Been eyeing out the sofirn ones that has that rotary thing but seeing this with a pocket clip instantly turn down the table will check this out later if it would change my mind
This only works with button tops. Flat tops don't work because they're too short.
My turbo mode doesn’t work?
Sorry to hear that. If it still doesn’t work after a full charge, I’d contact Olight’s customer service and maybe you could get a new one.
It's interesting, but I feel the same about this as I did with Sofirn's HS21 - I don't really want or need all these multiple emitter headlamps. I wish they would make a simple, single, centered emitter with the stepless ramping controlled by the rotary - not the button. This model and the HS21 are doing too much imo.
That’s fair. Flashlights used to have an on/off switch, and that was it. Now they do so much which is cool but sometimes simplicity is best. This one isn’t too complicated in my opinion but I resonate with your sentiment. I still won’t mess with Anduril or Anduril 2 haha
@PardonMyEnglish I think there's a place for these models. I'm sure both the companies will sell a good number of these. What's surprising to me is why they haven't figured out rotary power control yet. Personally that seems more intuitive to me rather than the rotary controlling flood/spot. That actually makes no sense to me whatsoever. Maybe rotary dial power control is harder to implement in an e-switch driver.
The rotary dial of the HD16 alters not only the distribution of flood and spot. Consider that both are altered simultaneously and so the brightness of one of them has to step down while the other one ramps up. You got both controls in one rotary switch. To obtain the same result with separate controls you must adjust them separately. That is not necessary with the HD16. The mixed brightness level you can change with the button switch. It is far more practical than most think. It is like the exposure shift on cameras.
Can the i5r run AA?
Yes it can 👍
Thank you my instructions didn't include this information
You’re welcome! My instructions didn’t have it either. Thankfully I read it on a response to a customer inquiry on Olight’s site.
Not to mention after a tough night of trying to fix something on your car in the dark. You can still make a phone call. When you have a flashlight?
Thank you! That's exactly what i needed!I couldn't find it anywhere.
50.00 now
Dang!
Have you tried A 10440 rechargeable battery in the carbon i13t , would be interested to know how it handled the heat
Good question! Unfortunately I do not have the Carbon fiber version.
I wonder how there would perform in a low power device like a clock, since there's a DC to DC converter inside there. Because of that, it would be impossible to check for battery life without proper equipment. If the charger would report the charge level that would be a deal maker
Got the silver plated bronze during black Friday. It's a QUALITY item. The weight is so pleasing while holding the flashlight
