This really is a coincidence of the year - I am looking at flashlights after well more than a year - and just watched your top-10 video. Then I accidentally saw the Baton 4 on the DE Olight webpage, went back to your channel and found this video. That is a SUPER cool product indeed. BTW - the charging case is already available here in DE directly from Olight - and that with a discount of around 25%. Let me only add - thanks for your excellent videos. Now I have more flashlight candidates than I would have imagined.

I picked one of the Baton 4 Premiums up mainly because of the charging case. Worth noting that the output spec says it only outputs 5 volts. It can handle enough amps to make it useful but if you want to charge something that wants 9, 12, 15, 20v, it won't work.

It may be hard on a long camping trip to find a tree with an outlet to charge your other light? Also I don't think most people are going to carry the case around and use the light in it. I think that feature is more for when the light goes dead and you still need to use it.

The i5t eos sounds great but I have the i5r eos and just swapped to a manker because there is no lock out mode or guard around the button so it always comes on when it’s clipped onto my pocket and if I don’t catch it in time it ruins the battery down so when I need it it’s dead. The manker I just got has a button that can’t get accidentally pushed but it’s about the same size. They need to add a lock out mode or guard the button

1:30 Draining them too much actually can cause them to explode when you try to charge them again. Most chargers have safeguards built in to prevent this though, and will just refuse to charge a battery if it detects a starting voltage that is too low.
@CanItAlready 7 ай бұрын
I have tried really hard to like the i3t but after having two tail caps go bad and Olight sending me a replacement tail cap and then a new light I don't trust it anymore. I have a donut i3t that I just don't use because I don't want it to fail, but in that case what's it good for? I have a black one that I carry but rarely use because it's the replacement light for the second tail cap that failed. The i3t has gone from my most frequently used light to my least used light, not counting the keychain lights that I have too many of.

If you're looking at the Baton, go and look at the Wurkkos TS10 instead, I've got mine in brass with 3000k 519a emitters, it's a lot brighter but also more versatile than the Baton and it's less than 1/5 of the price. Also, carrying a spare battery or two in a case is still way more pocketable than the charger case for this, but why would you carry that case when you could just use an 18650 or 21700 light which gives better ergonomics and performance and still be more pocketable than a box.
