Great light. We couldn't really reach 1000 lumens, but still : 886 lumens from the Arkfeld isn't really bad. Even though we reviewed 460 flashlights, the Arkfeld still stands out! Great shape/features and even brightness.
I haven't bought a new olight in close to a year. I even stopped watching their yt channel because I didn't want to know what I was missing. I finally opened their newest email and saw this light. I had to buy it. in blue with the matching pen. I was also surprised with the shipping. I ordered it at 8pm last night. I already received a USPS update saying my order arrived in Virginia on its way to Massachusetts. unusually quick. they were never slow, but this seemed unusually fast.
I used to love olight however today everything is going usb c nowadays. A rechargeable edc flashlight is worthless to me if I can't recharge it on the go because I can't charge it in the go because I don't have the right olight cable. Plus while magnetic charging is cool its much slower at charging the the industry standard of usb c. Plus magnetic charging is not as efficient show its actually bad fir the environment because it take more power ti charge your device.
Just ordered the od green version. Got a free little flashlight with it for Christmas sale... Not bad. I do maintenance on litho printing presses. The green dot will be helpful when talking to my coworkers. I'll be able to point stuff out without having to climb under the presses to point stuff out. I currently use a Streamlight MicroStream. It's great, tiny, and battery last a few days of heavy use. Just needs to be a bit brighter and has no laser pointer. I was actually gonna buy a MacroStream til I seen these.
To ALL who appreciates real torches, I gotta say .. OLight does a great job with the BOXES they shipped these torches 🤭 All jokes aside, if you want a real torch. Fenix all day!! Even Nitecore is another great option. TK20 V2 #1 best tactical torch TK16 V2 #2 best tactical torch PD40R V2 (gift these to all woman in my life. The easiest torch to operate) P20i - #3 best tactical torch I started with streamlight then moved on to Olight. Dropped Olight because I discovered Nitecore. Dropped Nitecore (besides P20i & MH25S) for a real torch, FENIX I get they send this guy free stuff but his audience deserves high quality flash 🔦. Everybody needs a FENIX at there home. If you love your life, get a Fenix torch ✌🏽
Is the laser good for daytime use also? I do roofing and want to have the laser pointer to point out stuff to homeowners. If not then is there an edc light/laser combo you’d recommend? Preferably close to this size
I do believe that this would be a great edc. I'm torn on the laser though. But, will definitely have to check olight's sale. Have been looking for flash light.
Go buy something from Fenix, Acebeam, Nitrcore, Sofirn, Convoy, Wurrkos. Just to name a few. Olights arnt the best and are over priced for what they are. Still using Osram P9 leds shows they only care about pure profit.
I really like the way the o light charge system is setup. I honestly cant hate on it. Super convenient. Im no flash light pro, and im sure there are plenty of good brands out there. But the build quality, charge system and customer service is top notch at o light.
I’m usually in agreement there. With larger lights I want a removable battery. But I could go either way with smaller less powerful lights. I’d still prefer a removable battery if I needed to choose
Built in battery is ok for me since this is not a one and only light. If it was for self defense, camping etc as a main light then built in or proprietary batteries suck
This thing is so cool, but I don’t like that it uses a proprietary charger. I’d rather be able to charge it with my work computer or in my car on the fly if I need to.
I dont understand this light.....i mean if it had a low profile way to attach to pic rail in rifle or pistol.....then i could see the appeal of a edc that can move into action if ever needed. But a laser pointer......come on! Just give me two LEDs or something...... just dumb imo
Jesus Christ there must be a full moon out tonight. This IS NOT A REVIEW. Olight sends channels new gear for their sales each month. Basically I agree to this and show the new gear to let everyone know about it and their upcoming sale. This being a new light all the info wasn’t available to me when I recorded this video. I had to release the video on the day of the sale. I went above and beyond just showing the light but actually offered my opinions and beam shots to give my audience a better understanding of the Arkfeld. Not a full review. But instead you ask why do a review if I don’t have all the info. Wow. I’m signing out for tonight. Goodnight everyone!
I agree, I bought my husband a surefire. I also bought him an American made watch and always American made knife with crucible steel. The same ppl complaining about our biggest enemy likes to financially support them.
But is the laser usable during the daylight to point at stuff on houses and buildings while talking to a client about their broken stuff??? I heard the laser is junk during the day.... I'd like to know for sure without having to order and return
It’s a super bright laser at night. It’s visible during the day but obviously not as prominent. I’m not sure what you’d consider bright so I can’t really tell you one way or another. For me it’s fine

Just received the the black and blue one. The blue accents are perfect. Im really liking the form factor on this thing. its a fantastic edc light

they were never slow, but this seemed unusually fast.
How do you like it 10 months after? I'm currently thinking on whether I should go for laser or UV.
I really appreciate your outside tests with the flashlights. I need a tighter beam for work so this is a no go, but I COULD use that laser. 🤔
super excited to grab one of these eventually!

Very good review. Finally great beam shots with the arkfeld. Thanks.
Ordered!!! Will have mine in two days!!!!!🎉🎉🎉
nice flashlight. finally a strobe function
Really neat flash light! Hope Nitecore does something alike as I dig the lcd run time and battery display so much
Really enjoying my ark feld
I actually love it but it does look like a fire stick remote to me
Haha!
makes me love it even more XD
Ergonomics are awesome.
i believe the battery size is about 1,000 mah maybe 1400
To ALL who appreciates real torches,
I gotta say .. OLight does a great job with the BOXES they shipped these torches 🤭
All jokes aside, if you want a real torch. Fenix all day!! Even Nitecore is another great option.
TK20 V2 #1 best tactical torch
TK16 V2 #2 best tactical torch
PD40R V2 (gift these to all woman in my life. The easiest torch to operate)
P20i - #3 best tactical torch
I started with streamlight then moved on to Olight. Dropped Olight because I discovered Nitecore. Dropped Nitecore (besides P20i & MH25S) for a real torch, FENIX
I get they send this guy free stuff but his audience deserves high quality flash 🔦. Everybody needs a FENIX at there home. If you love your life, get a Fenix torch ✌🏽
The Fenix TK16 v2 is still my favorite tac light.
That’s an impressive little light!
Why doesn’t my memory save on HIGH? Only medium
I like the floody beam without a hotspot. I wish the S2R would be like that.
It looks perfect will be matching it with my ultratech
The Battery is a 1050mah lithium polymer.
Thanks. That info is available now but wasn’t when I recorded

It’s not terrible in the day. But I’d go Arkfeld Pro with the better laser
I do believe that this would be a great edc. I'm torn on the laser though. But, will definitely have to check olight's sale. Have been looking for flash light.
The laser is useful for tradesman, showing a coworker, or customer exactly where the issue is
S1R Baton is a great EDC
@@demikpre i agree, i do tree work and remodeling ect.. and this is exactly what i needed. So excited to get mine, ordered it last night on the sale!

Without being able to replace the battery it’s no go for me
So funny how the everone talks about the green laser use for cats. So many more uses.
Hmm. Didn’t I mention the other uses I would use it for?
Your better to use a flashlight with a good hot spot for playing with cats. Lasers and eyes are not a good combination, if you care about your cat.
@@ChrispyThings im sure you did, i wached like 3 videos about the light, everyone was on the cat theme🤣 you did a great job on the review
I wish more flashlights had green lasers in them. Never bought Olight yet. Is the warranty as good as Fenix?
yes and there customer service is amazing
Great brand, have a few and never been let down. Had a tail cap on one light stop working and they sent a new one out no problem.
Check out Neal's Gadgets to see what your missing out on from other brands ;)
it is an awesome light - but did you manage to activate the timer function? It says there is a 3 and 9 min timer to switch off…
I didn’t see any timer info in the user manual. I’ll have to look into this.
but when i double click i enter the high power mode…🤷♂️
@@whatisbehindthecurtain3662 yep. Double clicking activate turbo
I think it's an Osram P9 LED
The arkfeld has a osram P9 LED
This proprietary charging cables is such a bug bummer. No arkfeld for me.
How long does the battery last ?
Love mine
So Olight vs. Fenix? Who has something much above the other?
Fenix, such a slept on brand. Go with them.
I really like that.
I may have missed it, but can you use the light and laser at the same time?
No
Is the magnet removable? It interferes with my compass.
No the magnet is built into the tail cap which also charges the light.
@@ChrispyThings ok thx
proprietary chargers will keep this as a no go for me. I like it though
Think I’ll wait till next month for Olight to release the Tactical Arkfeld!
Is that really gonna happen or are you speculating?
I really like the design and tan color but built in batteries is a no no for me.
I’m usually in agreement there.
With larger lights I want a removable battery.
But I could go either way with smaller less powerful lights.
I’d still prefer a removable battery if I needed to choose
Built in battery is ok for me since this is not a one and only light. If it was for self defense, camping etc as a main light then built in or proprietary batteries suck
@@youthmanyt My issue with built-in batteries is their lifespan, it's programmed obsolescence basically.
Eco-logic🤣- death battery=death flashlight=trash.
This thing is so cool, but I don’t like that it uses a proprietary charger. I’d rather be able to charge it with my work computer or in my car on the fly if I need to.
I thought that at first but now I have so many olights that the magnetic chargers are everywhere in my house.
Chicago.. ZNAJDZIESZ ZNAJDZIESZ MNIE-????
Aren’t strobe features the most annoying thing ever?
It depends where it’s placed in the UI.
I’m not a bud fan of strobe on EDC lights, but they’re a must in tactical lights.
Built-in 1050mAh Lithium Polymer Battery
Firestick mote!
1000lm and 1050mAh...
I see that now thanks.
That info wasn’t available when I recorded this video though
Where you live is perfect for an alien 👽 abduction 🛸. 😄
I dont understand this light.....i mean if it had a low profile way to attach to pic rail in rifle or pistol.....then i could see the appeal of a edc that can move into action if ever needed. But a laser pointer......come on! Just give me two LEDs or something...... just dumb imo
An EDC flashlight and rail mounting should have nothing to do with each other
Maybe because it’s not meant for guns??
I love the “buy American” comments made with phones made in china 😂
CHINNAA
But you guys are on a device that’s prob made in Asia watching utube🤪
The laser it too weak
If you don’t know the data then why do a review.

@@ChrispyThings there are others already UA-camrs already knows the type of Battery and light emitters, just for your info.
@@willhot3481 i honestly don’t care. Go watch their videos.
Have a nice day.
Overpriced junk. I can buy a cheaper junk version with more lumens.
Awesome 👍🏻
Buy American
I do.
But I also buy Olight and Fenix.
So…
I agree, I bought my husband a surefire. I also bought him an American made watch and always American made knife with crucible steel. The same ppl complaining about our biggest enemy likes to financially support them.
@@sherylhamilton3479100% My father would blow a gasket if I bought him something chinese jajaja.
@@sherylhamilton3479 What kind of car do you drive?
@@ChrispyThings I have a jeep Cherokee

I'd like to know for sure without having to order and return
It’s a super bright laser at night. It’s visible during the day but obviously not as prominent. I’m not sure what you’d consider bright so I can’t really tell you one way or another. For me it’s fine
