Was it a police officers mouth? I thought it was a dude working on his car/truck and holding the light in his mouth. I use Streamlights personally, but I can think of about 10 instances of Surefires getting runaway batteries in them while I was in the military. Anything from smoldering to violently creating a small explosion. There was a handful of instances with SureFires and Streamlights catching fire with police officers and some recalls too. In every instance I know of, it wasn't the lights fault either, but the user putting in crappy CR123's or instead or replacing both batteries, they just replaced one creating a runaway load. I'm not saying Olight is quality, I just don't know enough about them, but I do remember when everyone was calling Holosun junk at one time and while they aren't the best red dot pistol optics around, I wouldn't hesitate in using them on my EDCs or home defense guns. I also found the court report. I haven't looked to see if the dude was a cop, but just a dude that was working on his car. The unit had a runaway battery, pressure blew the cap back into his throat and he choked to death. The case was dismissed as it was deemed the CR123 manufacturers fault and not Olights.

Wasn't a cop according to the article I found, was a contractor who was working on his car: "Caleb Joyner, of Avon, Ind., was pronounced dead at 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday at Presence St. Mary's Hospital, according to Kankakee County Coroner Bob Gessner. The 36-year-old Joyner, who owns a remodeling and construction company, was an organ donor and several of his organs and tissue were harvested... Gessner said Joyner was looking under the hood and bent down for a closer look. He got close to the vehicle's battery and the flashlight exploded." I've read about the mechanism through which CR123As explode and it's called reverse charging, happens when you mix batteries at differing levels of charge which is why there's such dire warnings to never do so. So, it wasn't the Olights internal rechargeable batteries as claimed in this video, but rather the cheapo Nuon brand CR123As. That info is even displayed in the video at 26:45. I like this channel but he got the battery issue completely ass-backwards, the use of multiple CR123As is the problem and the use of rechargeable cells is the safer solution

First of all people really need to do there research on the bullpoop topic of olight flashlights explode. In that case Caleb Joyner was using a Olight T20 hand held flashlight. The T20 flashlight uses 2x CR123A (Non Rechargeable) or Rechargeable li-ion either 2x RCR123A 3.7v or 1x 17670 3.7v battery. The batteries is what can explode. If you use 2x CR123 batteries and one of them isn't fully charged when installed, the 1 dead one will go negative in voltage when the new one just goes dead. This is what can cause the batteries to explode. Also using 2x CR123 batteries in series parallel is dangerous by its self. All manufacturers of flashlights have had this issue so its not just Olight. I have used multiple manufacturers weapon light and Olight has been great. I've never had a issue with any of them and some of them have been abused hard with 20,000+ rounds of recoil. Ive thrown them on tables, in oil drums, in boxes. They've fell on the ground, been drug through mud dirt and gravels. Been soaked with rain and water and put away wet. They all work perfectly fine! I've had zero of them break and I've broken 3 surefire lenses. I love my surefire lights but they are expensive compared to Olight. So over the time I've used alot of Olight weapon lights to fulfill the need of not having to switch lights around on firearms. They all get a weapon light cause im all about that equality and making sure non of them feel oppressed! 😂 im glad you did add some Olight's to your test cause ultimately they are decent weapon lights!

TLR7 sub might not be blinding, but I gotta say, the extra weight is nice on some of the smaller guns. I really hope Goonbeam fixes the reflector in the sub and bring it into line with the Sig offering which manages close to 17,000 candela. PS. The individual who died from the Olight was using an aftermarket Nuon branded battery, and they were working on their car. Other than that, it appears that the OE batteries don't explode. Olight however does underperform in a multitude of other ways, and Werkz Holsters/lowlightdefense does cover these shortcomings extensively on their channel/website. PSS. I have gone back and forth with the guys at Goonbeam. They do more than just replacing the emitter, they also change the reflector, and the switches are improved (more tension and less chance of an WML ND).
@DeskPop5 ай бұрын
Worth noting that Isn’t the only report of them exploding. The Nuon battery was what the flashlight came with, and they’ll are absolutely correct on the CR123 thing; that’s why I didn’t mention the one where an officer had the light explode in his pocket and cause him third degree burns. The Baldiers specifically are known for having battery issues/melting gun frames in the past so I figured it was worth including. These ones did great; they seem very well made.

The battery in the Olight that exploded was not a rechargeable, it was a Nuon brand CR123a primary cell. CR123a's are dangerous, and in multi-cell lights will explode if you use mixed capacity (as in, one used and one new) almost every single time. The only thing Olight got in trouble for is not putting enough warning about the dangers of CR123a cells on their packaging.

CR123s have a risk of exploding if they are run back-to-front and their charge levels differ. It can create a thermal runaway event. The olight that exploded was in this config. I suspect they went to internal rechargeable to avoid it happening again. When you run them in series, side to side, it's less likely to happen. At that point it being an olight is irrelevant since X300 lights have the same config.
@rossdonaghy17485 ай бұрын
Water is relevant. Worst thing to happen would be the light dies from a little soak, we need to fight in the rain. Freezing? Waste of time. Both batteries and LEDs are negatively effected by extreme cold, one should know this when preparing to go into ice weather. Insulating the light body would also result in overheating so this scenario, especially at -hundreds should absolutely cause issues. I would have preferred impact testing, this we need to know: How long would they hold up getting bashed around while on? Obv a very expensive test as this will delete their value but the most valuable information also for your audience. Put them on, tape the switches off and dump them in a cement mixer.

Edens V Olight (1:19-cv-07076) Gosh still repeating that bunk olight kill story. Its funny so im not here to bum people out of a good joke but for the facts read the court documents. The family never showed up becuase the battery he was using was not an olight battery. Additionaly he had the non water resistant light in his mouth. There are so many other holes in that story its sad. The family just madr a stink becuase they lost a loved one but after the facts came out they didnt even show up to court. That gave olight the defualt win in that court case. Defendants did not show up. 12/19/2019 Edit: case was voluntarily dismissed instead of my first claim. I apologize for that but still think it should stay up for transperancy.

Boggles my mind how people aren’t exclusively buying Streamlight at this point. SureFire quality at a fraction of the cost IMHO. SureFire profits off of name alone. Don’t get me wrong, they’re great lights, but Streamlight is just as good. Olight is cheap Chinese garbage that has been marketed towards the “tacticool” crowd. Had several of them that were hunks of crap. Figured I’d give them one more chance with the Warrior Mini 3. Caught the thing on 3 different occasions turning itself on in my pocket. I’ll never carry it again. And they get super hot!

I have a lot of Surefire and streamlight weapon lights, I’m really good at breaking shit and NEED a durable light. For some background, as a Caterpillar transmission engineer and previous assembler and tester, I’ve used a lot of flashlights in my day and I’ve destroyed many flashlights (if it’s gonna break, I will break it in the first 3 months). The one I’ve been using for the last year and a half has been the Olight Warrior 3S, and it has been the best light I have ever used. At this point, I have nothing but confidence with Olight and will probably start including them in future gun builds

Honestly, we have always dismissed Olight for their earlier lights and paying creators to push their bad products. But the newer models we tested seem top, I don’t regret giving them a fair shake.

That's more than fair, most people would never look at a brand again. I use a few of their lights, like the Arkfield and Odin mini. I never heard of the issues you brought up, until this comment.

Tlr7a is absolutely enough light to be blinding and disorienting. Everything has its place.
@DeskPop5 ай бұрын
If they’re not holding a light at all maybe, most handheld lights are brighter than a tlr7 which makes it essentially useless. It also struggles to throw even the 12yards we pointed it at during the test, and then I used it directly pointed at myself to illuminate me for the other tests… I wouldn’t have done that if it was blinding
