Plus, Olight is currently having a sale and my subscribers can get a 10% discount on their purchases. Watch the video to see the Olight flashlights in action and hear my thoughts on these impressive lights. Don't miss out on the sale and the discount!

Last year i didnt carry a flashlight or see a need, now im a full fledged olight salesman who gets free gear to review, but i also want to point out i bought a few of these with my own money and i have a nifty accent, so its totally cool, organic and on the up and up! What a success story!!!!

I’ve been EDCing the i5r EOS for a about a month now. Plenty of light for dark morning/evening walks. Comfortable in pocket, USB C rechargeable battery, tail switch and fills my hand nicely. I like what you said about the i5t plus- it feels like yours and personalised.

I have the titanium version of it, it's an awesome flashlight I like the run times on it. I like the option to switch it from rechargeable batteries to regular AA if needed.

NOW YOU’RE TALKING MY LANGUAGE! I’m such a huge light nerd. I’m not much into the smaller lights, as I prefer lights with high candela output. I carry a full sized Modlite OKW with the Thyrm Switchback on it. Larger in size but that’s the price to pay. I haven’t had much luck with Olight, but I’ve loved the lights I’ve picked up from RovyVon. Another banger Marcus keep it coming.

I’m on the steep part of the learning curve when it comes to lights. Only really started carrying on this year but already have too many 😂. Will reach out to Modlite see if they’re interested in sending me one for review. 👍🏻

Interesting. This video was not sponsored by Olight (in fact I bought most of these myself). And my experience was not like your German friend working with them. They sent me their new products for review with no strings attached. I can stand over my review. Great flashlights for the price.

Hey I’m a bit late to your channel but I’m so glad I found it!! Love your Olight selections! :) I have a secret for you that you may have missed! It’s called the iR2 Pro :) it’s the perfect balance between size, functionality, and practicality! I’m surprised you didn’t include it in your video but I’m hoping you found it before this comment! :) It’s a great light that has two brightness levels, twists on and off, and best of all, it is USB-C rechargeable! It’s right in between the mini and i3 in terms of size and it’s very affordable. Very impressive beam that is cool in colour but extremely usable and effective!! You will truly enjoy it :)

I've owned many name brand lights and from my experience the olights have been some of the most reliable, highest quality manufacturing and longest lasting flashlights with a great customer service department. I agree that they're marketing is extremely effective, get a Baton 3 pro max with 2 additional lights for $75 now vs paying $90 later for just the Baton. Say what you want but I've not found a sub $100 light with the same quality as what olight brings to the table.

Not my experience with them. I had a light damaged by a leaky battery. They offered me a replacement. And when the switch on my i3t started to malfunction they sent me a new tailcap.
