For me it would probably be 2 things: 1) a dead simple UI like old maglite and streamlight flashlights where its just on or off, no flashing, no strobes; 2) tail switch so I can just hand the flashlight to someone else when necessary and they know to just click the switch to turn it on or off. I don't really need too much light output or a really long throw, something for looking at closer objects indoors is what I learn towards to.

My WK03 arrived the other day and I got the black one with the SST-40 6000~6500K 1800 Lumens. Its about ~$14 USD normally and about ~$11 USD on sale and I got mine for ~$8.50 USD and its a pretty damn good value for the price. The lockout mode wasn't something I expected to use but I realize that while running the switch was getting hit by other objects in my bag. So I engaged lockout and it was all good. Mine also arrived with a free magnetic tailcap, not sure yet what I'll use it for since the WK03 isn't a right angle light where the magnetic cap would be really useful. So for now I'll be using the regilar tail cap. I would have loved if the clip could be flipped since I could just wear a cap and clip it on there for convenience, but yeah the body can't be flipped.

I was checking for reviews and stumbled upon yout review of the Sofirn LT1S and this got recommended while watching that. What got me to flashlights was pretty simple: 1. I take long walks around sunset and sometimes I go for 2~3hrs instead of 1hr and end up way past sunset in the dark as the areas I take my walks aren't that well lit (sone parts no lights at all) so I end up walking in the dark in an area with not much people and only my phone as the light. 2. Storms and power outages. Not fun waking up at 5am in the dark with no power and having to go around the house checking for leaks and problems caused by storms. 3. My dad is a former firefighter and he had a bunch of lead acid-based halogen lights and a Ni-Cd based Streamlight always in standby until he retired and the batteries of those also failed with age. The 1st one I got a generic "XHP50" clone flashlight back near the end of 2021. It was my first one and for about $11~12 USD equivalent at the time it served my purpose of lighting the area during my walks. Controls were not great as it always goes High-Medium-Low-Strobe-SOS. (For this one I lucked out since the same flashlight design of black aluminum body, 4 blue leds, 18650/26650 battery, zoomy lens also has versions that were significantly worse and were all plastic.) The 2nd one is more recent and I got a Wurkkos WK03 and it's a lot nicer. More compact, brighter, better switch controls. Specific button inputs for Moonlight and Turbo along with the memory of the last mode is a big benefit of the WK03. While it has longer throw than the "XHP50" its worse for close range. Now I'm back to my thoughts when I got my 1st flashlight of getting my parents an easy to use one for use at home because all the old ones are dead due to being lead acid based. The 1st flashlight is unfit due to the controls. The WK03 might also not be due to being too small and they would find the controls confusing. So now I'm thinking what model could I get them that is: a) at most maybe 1000 lumens since its just for indoors; b) if possible tail switch so they can easily figure it out; c) use 18650 batteries (already got some from laptop batteries I took apart); d) integrated charging so they don't risk putting the battery back in reverse; e) not be too expensive (max $15 USD) For everything but b) I could get the Sofirn/Wurkkos S11 for about $6.50 USD on sale. But for b (tail switch) I only see worse flashlights that go for similar money but are less bright, worse color, and weirdly bulky and big. Do you think should I just go and grab 2 of the S11's for them and forgo having a tail switch? or do you have other models that you can suggest?

You can safely use a magnet or even something metallic as a simple screw or nut to charge 14450 and 10440 on it as far as the battery doesn't have a positive and also negative areas on top as some proprietary Nitecore batteries.

Deep carry clip all the way. I think a black clip would look cool

Thanks for your review. It looks like a nice light, especially for the $20 it costs with the 30% Amazon coupon. The gold color looks great. According to the Wurkkos website, the 519A model has brightness levels of 2, 15, 150, 500 & 1200 lumens, while the SST40 model lists 3, 100, 350, 800 & 1800 lumens. I wish the 519A model had a brightness level between 15 and 150, maybe 50 or 60 lumens. I also wish Wurkkos would put a deep-carry, two-way pocket clip on these lights.

Io ho acquistato una I3E eos e sul libretto istruzioni c'è scritto che NON si deve usare una batteria superiore a 3,7V. Perché questo? Grazie in anticipo.

I have a 2023 model 5k and they seem to be equivalent to an Olight Baton 3 but less expensive & a better tint in my opinion. It's small, puts out a pretty good beam, and has an uncomplicated UI. I saw that one on the Wurkkos website but I as I already have a black one, I didn't pick it up. The WK15 are the 21700 version of the WK03 and has a couple of different emitters offering either spot or flood favored patterns. I've dropped mine more than I should have & they keep on working.

This flashlight looks like a great budget recommendation for an olight baton 3 pro.

The Gold model 519a has 1200 Lumens, the Black 6500K sst-40 has 1800 Lumens 😉

I wish they weren't after the highest numbers possible for these small lights. 200 lumen is great but in case of an AAA it runs out of juice too fast. And 5 lumen mode is just not enough for me. Still looking forward to an AAA light with a tail switch and 50ish lumen mode that would give a decent amount of light and let the AAA run for a while.

Will the demonfire fit inside the i3T 2 EOS?

Both great lights. Lumintop all the way. That spiral on the olight has always struck me as just so random and a little goofy. Not that everything needs to be tactical.

I still carry my titanium i3t everyday, with a 10440 and a spare battery in my pocket. I haven’t found any light that that I like better.

Pocket clip design is a biggie for me, and right off the bat, the clip on Lumintop’s don’t work for me.

What is a recommendation for a wall charger 🔌

I’ve been running nothing but 10440s in my titanium I3t for two years without issues.

ALSO MAGNETIC CHARGING IS THE WORSE WAY TO CHARGE ANYTHING WAIT OF ENERGY PEOPLE LOOK IT UP AND YOULL KNOW NOT O BUY THIS PRODUCT AT ALL NOT WORTH THE MONEY NOT EVEN CLOSE YOU COULD BUY ALMOST 2 SOFIRN Q8 PLUS FLASHLGUHTS THAT PUT OUT ALMSOT 20.000LM SO WHY BUY THIS CRAP LIGHT PEOPLE YOU WOULDNT HES ONLY REVIEWING THIS PRODUCT BECAUSE HES GETTING PAYED TO SO DONT LISTEN TO THIS DUDE CHECK OUT A BUNCH OF VIDEOS AND THEN MAKE A DECISION BUT FOR THE MONEY YOU COULD BUY SO MANY WAY BETTER AND WAY BRIGTHER LIGHTS THAT USE ANY BATTERY YOU CAN FIND WITCH MEAN ITS NOT LIKE O-LIGHT WERE YOU CAN ONLY USE A CERTAIN BTTERY IN THERE LIGHTS NOPE NOT WURKKOS OR SOFRIN

SOFIRN COULD MAKE THIS SAME LIGHT BUT FOR HALF THE PRICE PEOPLE DONT BUY AN O-LIGHT UNTIL YOU SEEN OR BOUGHT A SOFIRN OR A WURKKOS FOR HALF THE PRICE BUT WITH THE SAME MATERIALS LOL SO YEAH SOFIRN AND WURKKOS IS WAY BETTER PEOPLE

HOLLY COW WHAT HAPPENED O-LIGHT YOUR LIGHT IS ALL BLACK LOL SINCE WHEN DID YOU USE BLACK ON A FLASHLIGHT LOL EVERY OTHER PRODUCS THIS COMPANY SELLS ARE ALL DIFFERENT COLORS AND CHOICES TO CHOOSE FROM LOL LET ME GUESS THERE LOOSING OUT ON MONEY THAT WAY SO NOW THERE GOING BACK TO NORMAL AND USE BLACK WTH THERE PRODUCTS GO FIGURE JUST ANOTHER REASON WHY NOT TO BUY AN O-LIGHT THERE CHEAP AND ARE WILLING TO USE CRAP PARTS TO SAVE MONEY NOPT A GOOD COMPNAY AT ALL

Thanks for your review. Looks like a nice unit, but it's a bit expensive. I wish they would have included a rotating ring around the switch for smooth ramping with the front LEDs, like the Seeker 4 Pro has.

I tend to gravitate to tail switches and standard batteries whether it’s AAA, AA, 10440, 14500, 18650 etc. I’ve never been a fan of the magnetic charging and proprietary batteries. For these reasons I stay away from most of the Olight lights.

Great for power outage

I got mine with the tripod on the way. Too bad there wasn't a lanyard attachment point near the top. Seems like you might want to hang it from the ceiling of a tent. I suppose you could tie a string around it.

Good review. While I could see this being a pretty neat light for camping and other outdoor activities as well as maybe areas where you're plagued by regular power outages or such, I feel like they once again missed some opportunities with that one. In my opinion, the 360° ring should've been RGB instead of warm white or, at the very least, have the option to switch between warm and cool white to make use of it as a desk lamp while working, for which warm white isn't ideal. Furthermore, I think a combined mode where the ring and the front light are on at the same time would've made for a good room-filling illumination. Not a fan of the proprietary charging base at all, though. It's bad enough they go all proprietary on their batteries and such but the fact that they can't even establish and maintain a streamlined charging system with their own products is beyond me. That's exactly the stuff that drives people to other brands.

I was strongly considering it for lamp type stuff but only 800 lumens isn't really that much

Good to see you back in action!. This looks like a great flashlight for camping/fishing

Great review but not for me.

Great review James 👍. It's a really innovative flashlight and would be really good for the outdoors. In fact finally a flashlight that can also be called a Torch 😁😉.I will definitely be looking at one when they are available here 👌🙂.

Thanks for getting the review out so quick! Will that charging base work with any of the other flashlights that are smaller? probably going to order one of these and the osight before the sale is over. Thanks for all the great content

It's been a while since you've uploaded a full video, I hope you and the family are well. I am looking forward to more of your content!

Cheating another light shut on before on the smaller jajaj

Very helpful 👍👍🙏

I have a I3t titanium that came with a very clicky button, unlike my aluminum one. It’s even a little brighter on high than my aluminum one with the 10440 battery. I don’t think I need to upgrade just yet.

I think you might be a bit early 😉

Looks like when olight found out what people were doing they had to spoil the party, so there's a little fire risk, it's the nanny state gone mad.

they should replace their side switches to metal instead of rubbers..they always upgrade their products but not their side switches..

Good to know I've been running a 10440 battery in my i3e for a year or more and never tried it on my 20+ other's. Now i need to test them lol. The glow in the dark fill on that light is amazing!! Did you do it? I know someone thats awesome that does stuff like that in the olight community now I'm wondering if that is his work.

burnt out my I3T plus lol

Experience personally I would not use the convoy batteries. I would get something from USA

Do they have Infrared 670nm for this light?

Awesome walkthrough!

I miss when they came with the clip and had 3 brightnesses

Does the demonfire fit in the olight properly? Mine doesn’t screw al the way down

Did you have any issues with the demonfire fitting in the light? Mine doesn’t screw al the way and when I forced it the battery started to over heat.

I picked up the Javelot in OD green with the last flash sale. Just charged it up. Now to wait for darkness… I don’t have a specific role for this thrower other than for fun

I’m so happy this is sick asssssssffffff

WQHY NOT GET A SUPERIOR FENIX? SIMILAR PRICE

Like to see a Gulf Livery Roadster colour version. Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
