Do you prefer a flashlight with more of a flood light or do you prefer a flashlight that has a long throw? Javelot Matte Black / OD Green: www.olightstore.com/s/5ZHI9D SAVE 10% OFF! Use Coupon code: GREY10
For general use I prefer flood. What is within 20-30 meters is much more interesting than what is 700 away in the vast majority of cases, and taking a walk in pitch dark with a narrow beam is like a blind man using one of those sticks going back and forth constantly just to not trip over something. But that said; I like throwers too and I wouldn't want to be without one, I just find them to be of more limited use.
@WeldingForJesus I appreciate you sharing your perspective. I agree that having both is probably the best bet. Most of my lights are flood, but it's nice to have a few long-distance throwers as well. 👍
@@GreyManPrepping I've been on a shopping spree over the last couple of weeks, a few of my old lights either gave up on me or simply disappeared, so I bought "a few" new ones, and this video of yours made me want a Javelot too (great work! 👍), but I have a Marauder mini (why choose flood or spot when you can have both?) and a Seeker 4 pro in the mail tomorrow on top of the 3S I got first, so if I order the Javelot before my better half has had some time to cool off I risk having it thrown at me. 🤣
@WeldingForJesus I totally understand that. lol 😆 I picked up the Marauder 2 a few months back, and man, it's a beast. Pricey, but like you said, best of both worlds for sure. I also got seeker 4 as well. Did a review on that one not to long ago. I put that one on my Truck bag. 👍
Hey there Grey! I saw your message to Raka and I will be commenting on all 4 videos coming out this week lol I am not sure what you have up your sleeve lol but I am sure its always something kind for all your subs! God bless you and the your wife! ❤🙏
Nice one Grey. I like that it’s a decent size & not bulky. Acts like a big light. You know me & how I like the compact size. I do have an unusually big suburban yard but this is throwing some serious beam. 👍
One can never have enough good flashlights. This would be perfect for checking out my bedroom window to make sure no predators are after my chickens. The light throw with this one is fantastic! Great price too!
Thanks for the review, The thing I like most about the Javelot is the ability to have all of those different modes. I particularly like the Half lumen feature. I have one on order in the OD green.
Thank you Grey ✝️❤️, I have liked all the demos that you have had from OLIGHT... ALWAYS Impressed...I like that size of a flashlight.. Im really impressed with the throw on it more than anything 👍..
I can see what I can put together down the road. I have a few other comparison videos scheduled, but after that, I can add that to my scheduled videos this summer.
Rewatching this video as I was making dinner when the other day and missed some of it. I like the size and for a little flashlight the throw is really good. I liked the flood too. I would use this if I was still doing security work as well with the saddle clip.
Maybe in a major power outage, it would come in handy? It's definitely a cool light. Honestly, one of my favorite aspects is the battery life in lower settings.
Yay I received a notification definitely love a light with more throw also like your skull ring definitely looking for this thank you for review and a discount code I’m learning about flashlights from you 👍🏻🕊️
Prefer a long throw light if I'm trying to see my fence line.. Flood light if I'm working on something up close. So depends on use😊 nice review, I like that light.
Wow! The beam distance of the New Olight Javelot is amazing. Definitely a difference between it and the little dollar store flashlight I have in my go-bag now. Never thought much about it before...I've been enlightened😂 🔦
You mean outside of their rechargeable batteries, I have found a way around that lol 😆 I just don't know if youtube will flag it. Oh, and thank you, it was a gift. I really like it as well.
@@GreyManPrepping you pulled out a blue battery 🔋 that should be made rechargeable. If you have a way around it. Perhaps a video of an experiment type could tell how you got around it 😜😜
Hey Karise, Did you put your youtube handle in the email as well. I have one email in the giveaway email and I wasn't 100% sure if it was you. Please let me know if so. I will forward the information over to Becky at NS and have them invoice me. Thank you 😁🙏
dont know what you mean by utube handle....but yes it was me. my daughter set up my email about 20 years and I never changed anything after I got remarried.

I’ve never been disappointed with an OLIGHT
Yeah, I've had very little issues myself with my Olights

I saw that as well 🥳
Hey I want in on the secret 😂
@@MildredEasyHomesteader Grey is most likely doing a giveaway for folks who comment and watch the review videos coming out this week.. Shhhh lol 😂
Ohhh I see thank you Umm's 🤫
Shhh is supposed to be a secret 😆
I like when I can throw out and see at distance but look more for lighting up the area around me first and for most!
I have this light that I personally bought it pushes out 14,000 lumens of flood, it's like turning on the sun 🤣 I did pay a pretty hefty price. Lol
Sitting here feeding the dogs and low and behold I got a notification! Love that throw on that thing for its size quite impressive Grey
That's great to hear! I was very surprised as well, very nice throw.
I with you brother I love my flashlights! 😆
Yeah my wife says I have a problem lol 😆
Nice one Grey. I like that it’s a decent size & not bulky. Acts like a big light. You know me & how I like the compact size. I do have an unusually big suburban yard but this is throwing some serious beam. 👍
Whenever I get this stuff to review, I'm always a bit skeptical, but it's always nice to be surprised 😁
Thanks Grey. That's a nice little flashlight. Much Love ❤
Thank you, Jan! God bless 🙏
WOW!!! No one could hide. from me very well with that light
Absolutely 😁👍
One can never have enough good flashlights. This would be perfect for checking out my bedroom window to make sure no predators are after my chickens. The light throw with this one is fantastic! Great price too!
Couldn't agree more! 😁👍
Yes I think you can have too many Flashlights, I have over 200.(Now that is too many)
I just bought and I love it
@brandonfairchild1768 That's great to hear! 😁 🤘
Thanks Grey looks like a nice light love the long distance
I was very happy with the size and performance of the flashlight 😁
Cant get one in canada😢😢😢
Really! That's truly a shame. 😔
Thanks Grey. I really like the way it fits in your hand.
Very powerful compact light. I was very pleased with it. 😁💛
Thanks for the review, The thing I like most about the Javelot is the ability to have all of those different modes. I particularly like the Half lumen feature. I have one on order in the OD green.
Thank you, and yes, that OD green looks sharp!
I like the "throw" lights more than the flood light for sure! Thanks Grey
I was very pleased with the performance as well. 😁
That's a great flashlight.
The technology behind these lights is really getting quite impressive. I still have my mag-lite that ways 5lbs lol 😆
@@GreyManPrepping but it also swings better.
that is crazy casting power! It's not clunky plus nice for carry bag since it doesn't take up a butt ton of space. Nice review! ty Greyman
Agreed, for its size, it performed very well. Throughly impressed.
Thank you Grey ✝️❤️, I have liked all the demos that you have had from OLIGHT... ALWAYS Impressed...I like that size of a flashlight.. Im really impressed with the throw on it more than anything 👍..
Glad you like them! Thank you so much for always being so supportive 🙏 God bless you!
Great powerful little flashlight. Thanks for the demo.
My pleasure 😁👍
Awesome light! I enjoyed the demo even though it's over my budget.😎 Thank you for all of your time and work in putting out these videos!
I really appreciate that 🙏
Impressive results I like the night shots of its abilities.
Thank you Sue
Nice Flashlight.
I really like it myself, very effective at long distances
Love the flashlight. I keep several around. Never have too many 👍
Same here! 😁
That flashlight is a beast!! Thank you!
I love it personally 😁👍
Really nice! And as usual good review. They have good products.
Thanks for watching Sam 😁👍
Can u do a comparison with the warrior x4
I can see what I can put together down the road. I have a few other comparison videos scheduled, but after that, I can add that to my scheduled videos this summer.
Nice size for the distance..
Indeed!
Rewatching this video as I was making dinner when the other day and missed some of it. I like the size and for a little flashlight the throw is really good. I liked the flood too. I would use this if I was still doing security work as well with the saddle clip.
Definitely would make a great security light 😁👍
Great review and field test. So many flashlights, so little time. 😊 👍
😆 thank you Diana
Thats one bright light need to get one
Agreed 😁 👍
Hubby is watching now!
Awesome! 💛
I have zero need to see that far in my little suburbia neighborhood, but it's a very cool light for sure.
Maybe in a major power outage, it would come in handy? It's definitely a cool light. Honestly, one of my favorite aspects is the battery life in lower settings.
Honestly I was really surprised by how bright this light is for its size. That beam distance is insane!!
As was I, very impressed with it. 😁👍
lights are needed
That looks like a Awesome Flashlight😊
I love it!
Yay I received a notification definitely love a light with more throw also like your skull ring definitely looking for this thank you for review and a discount code I’m learning about flashlights from you 👍🏻🕊️
You're the best Michelle, thank you for the support 🙏
I prefer when the different families have their own design language.
That’s a nice flashlight. I’m trying to decide on a rechargeable one to replace my battery flashlights
The size and capabilities of this one were very impressive.
Wow! on the night shots
It was quite impressive 😁
Olight makes a great product. 👍👍
Agreed 🔦 😁
There is always room for one more flashlight
I'm with you there 🤣👍
Very nice I need one or two of those 😊
Thanks for watching 😁
Great thrower light I such a small package.
Agreed 👍
Now thats a light! lol I honestly never gave much thought to flashlights, I usually just by the brightest I could find..but thats kinda awesome :)
It's interesting how everything from flashlights to knives can have specific purposes. Unlike years ago, everything was all or nothing product 😆
Prefer a long throw light if I'm trying to see my fence line..
Flood light if I'm working on something up close. So depends on use😊 nice review, I like that light.
Great point, Dee! I like having several lights with different applications, long throw or flood, as they all serve a purpose. 😁
Very nice. I prefer bright colors so I can find it when I set it down!😂
😆 I truly understand that lol
Wow! The beam distance of the New Olight Javelot is amazing. Definitely a difference between it and the little dollar store flashlight I have in my go-bag now. Never thought much about it before...I've been enlightened😂 🔦
I totally agree! I was very impressed with its capability, especially in such a compact size. Have a good night. 😁
I want one in my Easter basket ❤
Roger that 😆🤘
Absolutely love flashlights.
Brother, by the end of the world, I should have enough to supply a small Army 🤣🤘
@GreyManPrepping your being modest, because you already have that many. 🤣
That could light up my 350 meter targets.
100% the throw on this was very nice!
I have a million flash lights but if I ever do need one I’ll buy one thanks
I have to many as well, it's like an addiction lol 😆
I still like my Warrior Turbo.
That's a solid light as well! My buddy prefers his warrior as well. Either direction, they are both solid options.
@@GreyManPrepping
I enjoyed your video man !
New sub here ! Cheers 👍
Much appreciated 🙏
Too bad they don't offer rechargeable batteries for their flashlights. BTW your Grey Man ring looks awesome 🙏❤️🙏
You mean outside of their rechargeable batteries, I have found a way around that lol 😆 I just don't know if youtube will flag it. Oh, and thank you, it was a gift. I really like it as well.
@@GreyManPrepping you pulled out a blue battery 🔋 that should be made rechargeable. If you have a way around it. Perhaps a video of an experiment type could tell how you got around it 😜😜
I really dislike these videos. Now I have to get one.
I hear ya 😆 UA-cam has inadvertently made me pick up many things over the years, lol Most of the time, I'm glad I did.
Hey Grey did you get my email. I sent it a couple days ago but I havent heard a response so I dont know if I did it right
Hey Karise, Did you put your youtube handle in the email as well. I have one email in the giveaway email and I wasn't 100% sure if it was you. Please let me know if so. I will forward the information over to Becky at NS and have them invoice me. Thank you 😁🙏
