    The Olight Arkfeld UV flashlight is so much better than the original. Why ? Because they slimmed it down, added a deep carry pocket clip and a UV light. This is the comparison video between the original Arkfeld with laser pointer and the New Arkfeld UV for 2023. Lots of beam shots and out door footage for this fan favorite EDC flashlight.

    Those glass jars are probably slightly radioactive due to some of the Uranium oxides. It's called "Uranium Glass" and it glows in UV. If you have any simple dosimeter you could probably check it.

    I love my Arkfeld UV flashlight. Living in Southern Nevada the UV is especially handy hunting down scorpions. Of all the UV lights I have owned this light is hands down better by far. In general lighting needs the main light is outstanding. I think so much of this light I purchased two more as gifts. Thanks Olight for a great product. Thanks Not Thursday for spreading the news about Olight.

    I travel and I use the UV light to inspect a hotel room. I finally stopped using my beloved Surefire E2L Outdoorsman with a shattering 125 Lumen on High (if that). LOL. But it was my first quality light I purchased around 2007 and used it in Nepal, the Philippines, Thailand, Egypt, Mexico and other countries with inconsistent lighting. I love the Surefire but today's battery and light technology have enticed me to purchase the Arkie UV. Cheers and happy travels with clean sheets.
    p.s. I use the Surefire Outdoorsman flashlight holster to carry my Spyderco Subvert knife and I have removed the carry clip. Nice set up.

    Oh nice they finally added the reverse clip for ball cap brim. My EDC is a Streamlight Macrostream USB, but I might pick up one of these. I work in HVAC for a hospital, my EDC light needs to have a super bright mode for following pipes/ducts/wires through ceiling plenums, and a hands free up close light for working. This looks like a good option.

      I KNOW! Why they don't do this on all flashlighs I don't get. I have a Fenix LD30 (Fenix and Olight are the best quality made flashlights in the world) and the Fenix LD30 has an S shaped clip made out of titanium, which is really nice. Olight and Fenix for life. Along with Streamlight, Acebeam, Nitecore and a few more 😊.

    Those new side cuts? My guess is that they are primarily intended as an assist when pulling the light out of your pocket. Dip (your fingers) and grip. I just ordered on so I'll find out in a few days.
    All those upgrades from the original show that the Olight is thinking and listening.

    • @non.treaty.dreamer
      @non.treaty.dreamer Рік тому +2

      I prefer neutral lighting because its easier on the eyes compared to the cool white. Depends on what your using it for. Warm & neutral white are more for indoors & such where cool white would come in handy if you were checking your backyard/front porch. The neutral white is the middle ground between cool white & warm white
