    11. Warrior Nano: www.olightstore.com/s/RG31IB
    Still not sure when I would carry this over a Warrior mini 3, could just up on the list after more use.
    12. Baton 3 Pro: www.olightstore.com/s/K6FXJ0
    outclassed by WM3 in versatility, outclassed by Baton 3 Pro MAX in capability
    13. I5R: www.olightstore.com/s/R6S5FJ
    Outclassed by its competition in other brands, proprietary 14500, and more expensive.
    14. I Mini 2:www.olightstore.com/s/EKQLF8
    Sadly this light is not waterproof which drastically drops it on the list. If it was IPX7 it would easily be top 10.
    15. I3E: www.olightstore.com/s/7OPQ9X
    Very simple light, great gift. HOWEVER, it misses out on mode options compared to other lights from different brands.
    16. Seeker 4 Mini: www.olightstore.com/s/XH4SX6
    This light is basically impossible to carry comfortably in the pocket with its formfactor. Otherwise it has a nice functionality.
    17. I5T Plus : www.olightstore.com/s/SKXCYM
    This is a great light for those with light sensitivity (ramps slowly), but other than that its outclassed in the marketplace.
    17. Open Pro: www.olightstore.com/s/H21TBC
    Very Nice, and sadly the battery has issues that cause it to drain more rapidly than it should over time.
    19. I3T Plus: www.olightstore.com/s/F6EH57
    This is just not a good flashlight...very little benefit over the I3T and it can only maintain its top output for 1min vs 5 from the standard 13T.

    I love the warrior nano because of the short length.
    I use it for work a lot up in ceilings a an electrician. The short length lets it hang horizontally off any piece of metal without any fear of it flopping of.
    You can hit it on accident and it won’t flop off a piece of strut, a stud, truck frame what have you. I carry it in the same pocket as my bench made and don’t notice it.

    Hear me out: Perun 2! You get a high output floody headlamp with a comfortable head strap. Take off head strap and use with a clip. Right angle is great for clipping on a pack, table standing, or more secure magnetic work light. Basically the same output and light pattern as the Seekers with more flexible usability.

    I got the Perun Mini as a novelty for the collection... It turned out to be one of the best EDC lights I've ever had. I was NOT expecting that, and it was a close second to the Fenix LD15R.
    I got the Mini 2 for the additional features that would have made it the equal of the Fenix, had they kept the stronger tail magnet and the grippy body... and then Fenix came out with the HM50R v2 with the best headband to date for this class of light.
    I still carry the Olights every day, but I'll use a Fenix when I feel like something slightly fancier.

That said, if you're searching woods at night you may want something more throwy (Warrior X3) or on a campsite you may want something more floody (Seeker 4 Pro). But for an all rounder, Warrior 3S gets my vote.

    I'm not surprised by the Baton 3 being rated number 2, but I am surprised by the praise for the charging case. After buying two of them myself, I realized that even with some cables included, an equivalent mAh power bank is smaller, lighter, and more electrically efficient, plus it can charge anything.
    Glad to see the Oclip make the top 5. I feel so bad for it since it's such a good light but hardly anyone talks about it and even during its debut it didn't get a sale. It is only IPX5 though, so don't kill your light by trying to submerge it.

    • @MPD90
      @MPD90 9 місяців тому

      100% agree. The Baton case seems like a gimmick and I'm surprised how many people rate it. As you say, a normal power pack works better, and if the user just wants lots of torch battery life then they'd be better off picking a bigger torch (instead of a mini torch with a chunky case that becomes... a big torch!).

    I'm a creature of habit and still carry the S1 Baton mini 6 years after buying it. I have the Baton 3 as well, but the S1 just lives in my jeans pocket 24/7. Yes, I know it has a weird charging system compared to the other Olights out there (you have to take out the battery and charge it directly via mini usb port) but the torch itself is barely larger than the battery, and I love the small form factor.

    The S2R Baton 2 (now the Baton 3 Pro) has been my main flashlight for years and I've been happy enough with it that I haven't upgraded. All my other flashlight purchases since then have been keychain lights or lanterns (and some of those are freebies from Olight -- love that about 'em). But I can tell how much thought you put into this and I must take notice that you think the Warrior Mini 3 beats the Baton 3 Pro. I'll go back and find your full review on that. Also interesting that you include the O-Clip. Thanks for all the work you put into this. It really can be confusing when trying to figure out what flashlight to get.

    I know I'm a bit late to the party, but as an avid Olight fan, and in the market for a new work light, I found myself here. My two cents about the warrior mini 2 (which has been my EDC light for about two years now) is that it is a more friendly carry than the warrior mini 3 solely because you can mount the clip on the tail end to give the user a very deep tail up carry. The warrior mini 3 does not allow this (no groove to switch the orientation of the clip), and that is my only gripe with it. If they made a fourth generation of the warrior mini with the improved tail switch, more recessed and updated side switch, updated sensor, and a swappable clip, I'd be first in line to purchase it. I ended up picking up the warrior 3s for my work light because it comes with the nylon holster and I will be mounting it on a duty belt. Hopefully it works out well for me, but I will be trying to pocket carry it as a new EDC and use the warrior mini 2 in the holster. Nonetheless, I will remain a big fan of Olight's products and continue to buy from them.

    Being able to charge it via USB-C, or use a regular 14500 or AA makes it highly versatile.
    Also, having the UI and functions of the "big boys" combined with the very nice lumen output (for its size) is a giant plus.

    The Diffuser is a great light but It isn't very comfortable in the hand and I find myself going for the i5r way more often, the i3e is a great little keychain light and it was free so cant beat that value, and the perun is awesome, it's the brightest of the bunch as well as being super handy to clip to a pocket or wherever and have light, can't really use any of the others hands free unless they're straped into the peruns headmount or in your mouth

    I have had the Baton 3 premium I’m anodized red for years and my main dislike is the magnetic charging on the tail end. I get that it makes charging a breeze and also adds some dual functionality to the light when you want to stick it to a metal surface but even in my pocket it picks up metal shavings. I work as a welder so the weld dust is in the air so this a a major annoyance. I’m thinking of upgrading to the Warrior X 4 to solve this very problem.

    I have an Olight model 92 SR. Was a great light and threw a spot beam 1700 yards! After a couple of years the battery needed replacement (the battery was built into the handle) and lo and behold no battery was available from the manufacturer, they had stopped making them. So I now have a $300 flashlight head with a case but no way to make it work! Too bad as I really liked that light…..cheers

    I used to EDC the Warrior 3S but working in the scrap metal industry, that tail cap does not play nice with iron filings. The Baton 3 Pro Max was super exciting, but ultimately disappointing. Yes it’s bright but I would rather longer run times. As it is the Baton 3 Pro can go longer. The “shake to wake” also seems unnecessary.

    I would add a I3e eos. I have one on every keychain. AAA batteries available everywhere . Love all the olights. But I started only buying flashlights with replaceable batteries . I expect more than 5 years from my tools, and internal batteries always fall short. I use only enloop rechargeable batteries after having Duracell batteries leak and damage other flashlights. Never use alkalines. Favorites are Warrior 2 mini, Baton 3, and Perun 2. O K

    I got the i3T EOS from Amazon-whoops! I have been hesitant to pull the trigger on any other Olights because of the proprietary charging system. I am leery of using websites of Chinese manufacturers due to security concerns. I always reasoned that savings on these websites might be offset by greater security risk. I had been looking at the Wuben X3 with the Aluminum Charging Box. I wonder if it would be interesting to do a video comparing the aforementioned with the Baton 3 Premium? Or even look around and do a video on all the small flashlights that have some sort of charging box. I don't think there are that many? Thank you for the video!

    First off I want to say I had to miss the last q&a stream because I had family in the hospital and I had to be there and I hope you will do those 1 per month because they seem good. Also, I wonder if you would consider a "get to know you" type of deal where you could talk more about yourself how you got into edc stuff and where you came from and why you decided to do youtube videos that sort of thing.
    Also at first I didn't really like the magnetic chargers for olights but I've watched a lot of videos and I see now that besides the size reduction and ease of waterproofing you also get a magnetic tail cap which is really nice to have imo.
    Also, and I don't think a lot of people new to olight know this because I sure didnt, they make a bar that has multiple spots for mag charging so if you go all in on olight you can have a charging hub for them all.
    I still have type c battery flashlights scattered through my house. Which is nice for the ease of replacement. However, every time I go to use one it has set for so long that the batteries have discharged and have almost no output. These newer batteries are great at holding a charge and, in my observations, are much more reliable.
