Bought this today just for Marshall. I'm really sad to hear about the sad news. What a great guy and I really enjoyed and appreciated his videos. Thanks olight for your contribution. You guys make a great team!
How do suggest we handle the Overheating Issue.. I feel it's due to the 26650 battery? But Even on Medium There are still some Heat issues and Im it the only one who has noticed this. The functionality is side but it does get pretty darn hot.
Hello Marshal! Have been following this channel and your reviews for few years now and great to see you still do the best flashlight reviews in youtube! The way you test and use the same place for testing the lights it's easy to compare lights and see how they performe in real life, so huge thanks to you once again! ...and sorry for my english, i'm from Finland but i'm sure you get my point.
I love the channel and light! I have the r50 pro. What is that transparent looking button 180° from the power button? Can't find any info on why it's there
Great review and thanks for taking the time to do so.. I was comparing the Klarus RS 20 on distance and from your video it looks like the RS 20 beats the R50 seeker. Not near the spill, but packed with other features and 18650 batts, I am putting it on my "get list." Congrats on your continuing success..
I would like to see torch manufacturers replace the fragile Micro-USB with USB-Type C port. I have couple of cell phones with that connector loose. Also looking at new lights, it seems like the MTG2 has been replaced with XHP-50/70 for high lumen lights.
0:57 I would be careful about the word "honest" when speaking about Olight. I know how their specs are usually very well exaggerated. But very nice review! ;)
***** Try to get 15 days of runtime from your Olight S1 on moonlight mode with 1x RCR123A battery as specified by the Olight. That's just impossible. Even on youtube you can find comments of others that on this mode S1 can't give you more than 3 days. Most of reviewers don't try the actual runtimes of all modes, they just believe the specs. On the package "15 days of runtime" is very good selling strategy, I don't doubt that, but lying about the specs is not an honest policy.
TBH, the S1 is the only torch of theirs that overstates anything (and when you take the runtimes with a grain of salt, it's still an efficient torch on average with other brand models). The S2, for example, hits runtimes right on the money for a 3400 cell, and lumen levels stay within the acceptable statistic range (+-30lm on the 900lm turbo, for example).
Hi Marshal, do you have the 26650 4500 mAH batteries in stock? Last time I checked your website, you only had the 4000 mAH listed... Thanks for your reviews, they're very informative and helpful.
How old is this video? I think they discontinued the R50. Nice they included a wall adapter so in case you don't have USB ports that are free on your desktop computer, laptop or tablet.....
"The light, the promise of safety!" Unfortunately for overseas customers, getting extra proprietary 26650 batteries for in-torch charging is an extra ache. Hopefully they're as reliable as the Olight protected 18650s (my favorites) so it takes several years for us to need replacements.
Nobody gives a shit about the fucking packaging. It's constant on these reviews " Oh the packaging " 5 minutes wasted on that BS. It's always the same thing too. " Oh comes in a nice box, you get the charging cable...bla bla.......oh the instruction manual bla bla bla."
flint lock I don't know if it's a good thing, but nice packaging like this light has, I think does a lot for the customer, it just reinforces that it's a quality product.
Not sure if you know this but you can actually skip past the parts you don't want to see. All you have to do is put your mouse on the lower portion of the video and a red timeline bar will come up and you can click whichever point in the video you'd like to see. It also gives you a small thumbnail of the portion of the video that your mouse is currently on so that you can skip past the unboxing portion of the video. LMK if you need any more help.

Thanks = Kiitos ...there's a bit of Finnish to you. Hope you have a nice day and love the beard!
I just bought an R50 today off Amazon. Can't wait to try it out :)
That is a very nice box. How about showing the Flashlight.
Bought this from you guys and is my truck flashlight. Love it, it replaced my R40.
Wow just found out today. I was waiting for his shot show 2018 videos. Seen a RIP video. RIP Marshal and god bless your family
I love the channel and light!
I have the r50 pro. What is that transparent looking button 180° from the power button? Can't find any info on why it's there
You gotta do the X7 Marauder when it comes out. Can you please show us your desk sometime?
Wow! I'm shocked! What a loss to the community. R.I.P Marshall..
his community yes
He's dead??
FUCK NO MORE SMOKING WEED AND LEARNING ABOUT TACTICAL THINGS :C
rip
What happened?
I could not really continue watching the video knowing the man is gone... RIP
What happened?

MT-G2 was pure brute force for brightness with good tint on the side. Not very efficient. Then again, it's pretty old compared to the entire XHP line.
Going Gear if you could only have either the olight r40 or r50 which one would you choose?
Some nitecore flashlights have usb c

Will you be reviewing the new Jetbeam BC40GT? Its another xhp50 led i want to see compared to this olight.
R40 lights up further, the last figure shows better when you were zoomed in. So the R50 is wider, but dies out faster distance wise.
Nice review...I just got the S2R though the R50 is my next in line. Nice watch also...what is it?
Hi, I like the wrist watch you wear, may I ask what brand/type it is please?
Love the olight btw
I really really really wish this had a deeper reflector giving it a narrower hot spot and longer throw. It would be perfect then
Miss u man!
Do they make one that has hight lumen output that doesn't take cr123 batteries or something similar
Hi Marshal, do you have the 26650 4500 mAH batteries in stock? Last time I checked your website, you only had the 4000 mAH listed... Thanks for your reviews, they're very informative and helpful.
Thanks, please keep us posted.

Great video and great light. I think I have to get that one.
do you know what the charger output amperage is by chance? or what the light can take?
sorry meant amperage not wattage

Thanks for making me want another light that i do not need since a allready got the S80 😉
Going Gear Yep I'm going pick R50 Pro. I dislike this because bottom look mess with that rubber thing it not look neat.
got one for my dad, it is a true monster! very broad beam and it's a decent handwarmer on turbo 😆
Sad to hear he passed away... He got me started/hooked on flashlights! RIP
You couldn't put a carrying case for it why couldn't they add that in the cost it's an expensive to make a case
marshal went to the light and said "all is now complete and good"
I love this flashlight 🔦 👍🏻
Its a good idea for olight future.i like its all design olight the best.
hello sir i'm Jim from Philippines its an honor for me if u test & review the Olight R50 pro LE Kit.,tnx and God bless u and ur family Sir...
wOw ..... So sad..... RiP, msia
Allah hakbar 😀
