    Hi Cheule,
    Thanks for the great review!
    Watching your vid really helped me make up my mind on getting one; I just received mine a couple days ago along with my patriotic, red, white and blue Oight i3 AAA flashlight.
    I really love them, and the Obulb plus has so many color options when I operate it with my iPhone.

    As an older Olight fan and advocate, I really wanted these Obulbs but they were out of stock. Then I picked up a LUX PRO LP1535 retro led lantern at a local shop and was extremely impressed. If you want a sturdy simple dimmable (5 to 265 lumens) light that is attractive, affordable, and very practical, then try the little LUX PRO. It uses AA batteries and runs continuously for nearly 3 weeks on low (warm ambient night light). Love it so much that I now have several (only $9.99 at Tractor Supply or $12.99 online).

    I love my MC75s.
    I remeber when the Pro came out and you couldnt access some of the features without the app. I liked using these while camping. In the tent and as a headlamp. I didnt want to mess around with my phone to change the settings.
    I'm not completely sold on the ProS. All though the soft white is perfectly fine, a daylight white would be nice for filming purposes. I also like quickly scrolling through 7 modes to green and red for at night so it wont destroy my night vision. Thank you for the in depth review.

      @JJ-ly3vy Год назад

      I believe they sell a magnet hanger for the lights, but it either has a hook or a ring, not sure how you would connect it to the obulb. I have seen like an inexpensive 12" or so long silicone string(?) that had a cup on the bottom that for the obulb perfectly. but I didn't know they had different sizes of it until I watched this review. maybe they have one for the plus? I'm sure one could figure out how to attach it to a strong magnet, maybe a rare earth or neodymium magnet.

    • @cheule

      The mix comes with a metal object the size of a guitar pick with 3M tape on one side. It’s precisely so that you can hang your Obulb.

    Maybe "better" than the Pro model,
    but changing the brightness using touch-control (without the app) is an absolute PITA:
    The ramp function kicks in way too fast, making it almost impossible to reach the desired brightness levels (except min/max, of course).
    It's also incredibly annoying that you can't really control whether the ramping should start going up - or down.

When you walk in boom it gives you a little light but the new ones like the pro and the plus do not have this feature.
