I was skeptical of olight only because of the price but ive now replaced all my lights with olight because they they are innovative, durable, and extremely effective. Being able to recharge your lights pays for the new lights and more in what you save
@@markbrown4597 absolutely threw it away. Didnt hold up. Output deminished over time. Also the mount broke. So if you need a light for a hardhat maybe but not a weapon.
saw your video and another olight video...just purchased 2 olight bldr mini’s! 1 for the home gun (glock 21) and the other to swap between my edc (fn 509 or cz p-01) keep making videos theyre legit!
I have 4 of these lights. One of the things I like is they are basically the same form factor as the Surefire x200 and x300 series. Why is that cool??? That means that if mounted on a pistol it will fit most of the holsters already on the market made for the x200-300 lights.
I’ve been considering an ar 9 heavily for the last little while. The FX-9 is one I’ve been considering. Just wondering if you have any experience with any more expensive ar platform 9mm pistols like the cmmg guard or banshee and what your input may be? Great content as always 👌🏽
How many slots do you recommend on the picatinny rails for both the light and pressure switch? I need to order the right size mlok rails to install this and don't necessarily want excess rail. Thanks.
I know the question is dated a bit but for those who are curious. A three slot was sufficient for my PL-Pro. It fit perfectly. I haven't bought one for the pressure switch yet but it has a max of 7 slot spaces on the switch base.
I think it only gives you high with the pressure switch, but you have full function on a handgun, only gripe I have is not being able to cycle high and low using the pressure pad, I have other Olights using the same pad configuration.
Does O-light pay youtubers to do these videos? I have nothing against olight, or someone making a buck doing advertising.It just seems that everytime Olight has a sale, there are a slew of videos " reviewing " that particular light. coincidence?
Not a coincidence. Olight is very aggressive with affiliate marketing (google it)-which is about the only way gun reviewers like me can earn revenue anymore.
Essentially, yes they offer them money through sales directed via the links for the individual UA-camr. Basically TLBS is probably getting 5% of every sale that occurs via his link.
boardertown holsters is solid, as far as duty holsters the baldr is supposed to fit x300, im going to do a series of videos in the next monthon this. i been stocking up. sub for info coming up
Nobody else seems concerned that the pressure switch is connected by magnet? What if you are clearing a room and bump into a door frame and it comes off.
Keep making the videos, the make kick ass lights and that's why I'm here over 2 years later haha
Great product. I have one now, and providing the better half does not find out I will own two more.

How is it holding up a year later?
@@markbrown4597 absolutely threw it away. Didnt hold up. Output deminished over time. Also the mount broke. So if you need a light for a hardhat maybe but not a weapon.
Probably in lockout mode so it doesn't melt/burn the packaging?
I bumped into you at Costco one day and meant to show you that I had my S1R Baton, per your recommendation. I have the 2nd gen too. Best carry light!
Just getting back to this video but thought is was spot on!! Loved the representation with the on and off at range!! Dont stop
I want to see a video on your FX-9 pistol now! I want to see some of your modifications and how it’s running. Looks good! Thanks
Thanks. I'll see what I can do.

Keep the olight videos going, they make great products!!

Awesome video!! How many slots do I need on the picatinny rail for the pressure switch?? Thank you!
Love your channel, love the Olight videos, keep it going!!!
My issue with the magnetic remote switch would be if you were in heavy brush, the magnet would easily be pulled off.
Why u have to get the odin
Where can I buy this at a good price?
Love olight and the olight videos.
I did not see on their website if you spend over a certain amount you get the m1t raider plus free?
I noticed that the pressure switch came with some zip ties. What are those for?
There is no mention of the free M1T plus and pic mount in the olight store/link you listed...
Just refreshed it and I see it listing the accessories now

The PL2 has a whiter (higher kelvin) light than than the pro. The pro is brighter.
Time for a update video FX9!
will the like work good with the ksg 12ga?
I wish there was an option for batteries, if youre a week in the field without electricity youre basically screwed
PL Valkyrie 2
1200 lumens
Just under 14,000 candela
CR123 batteries
I don’t get why people hate olight or think it’s a cheap light ? Olight is one of the best quality lights I’ve ever had
Will the pressure switch give you instant temporary strobe while you squeeze ?
I think it only gives you high with the pressure switch, but you have full function on a handgun, only gripe I have is not being able to cycle high and low using the pressure pad, I have other Olights using the same pad configuration.
Great channel!
Best in it’s class for the money
9 gun channels all uploading an ADVERTISEMENT for the same flashlight on the same day. This is why I hate UA-cam's gun video demonetization.
Will the desert tan light match the desert tan on my tp9sfx?
susan adkins Not sure about that. This Desert Tan is on the darker side.

Which holsters are compatible with this light?
boardertown holsters is solid, as far as duty holsters the baldr is supposed to fit x300, im going to do a series of videos in the next monthon this. i been stocking up. sub for info coming up
Heard it only stays on for 3 min then it drops 60 lumens. Is this true?
bbbvvhk it drops down to 600 lumen after about a minute
Well that sucks no one mentioned this at all
Hello where would I go to buy the olight

Nobody else seems concerned that the pressure switch is connected by magnet? What if you are clearing a room and bump into a door frame and it comes off.
Chance Macdonald small strip of duct tape could fix that
Midnight EST?
USClight Yes.
Do these fit on a Glock 19?
It should fit just as well on a 19 as it does on a 17. It will just stick out a bit further.
The Late Boy Scout awesome! Got mine ordered thank you!
Perfect light for my G19, G17 and the Glock Micro-Roni.
Yes. I have one.
It says 30% on their site, but 40% on your video/thumbnail.
30% off on the light alone, and 40% off when you buy it with the pressure switch.
