My streamlight stays on my G17. I will never put it through that kind of condition. But good to know that if I dropped my weapon it should still work. Thanks for the video.
I use the TLR-1HL on duty, and needless to say it has not seen anything near the punishment of these tests… but I’ve used it over two years, and been happy with it. I don’t give anyones O lite any crap, because you can break anything if you try, and I have certainly run though a number of law enforcement Oriented lights over the years, to know by thier very nature that they have some delicate parts…. Have even had recoil cause battery leakage on a L3 produced holosight Thats been issued all over the US Govt. The only thing though, that I can think of in real life that would be anything close to the concrete wall test, would be getting caught in an explosion… step on an anti personel mine and have it launch your weapon Into a wall or tree trunk. Only other thing close is maybee a car wreck.
Ehhhh streamlight is still better then olight. And reason why is cause the streamlight actually maintains its brightens... oilights are great for a minute or 2 then bye bye gimmicky market power.... the pl-pro is weaker then the streamlight in all reality.
I agree Olights are much better than people give them credit for. They'll mention that one blew up on someone but refuse to read the article to learn that he was working on a jerry-rigged car battery (not wired properly) with the light in his mouth. Recipe for disaster no matter the light. Even NO light that's a terrible idea to do "your own wiring job" on an auto battery. 🙄
Not saying it is but if you got that light off Amazon I’d love to know if it’s a knock off or not,seems like a good percentage of them are and some are such a good knock off youd never know without really looking. Just go read through all the negative comments to get an idea how many are probably out there that people will never even know about. There is no way to control any of your tests so to say either light won or lost is really irrelevant. The streamlight could have hit just at the right angle in the right place to kill it and not the olight or Vice versa. Would love to see some more controlled tests, i know it’s expensive but I’d pitch in some $$ for you to get another light. Not gonna lie i was surprised the olight took the hits that it did… I’ve had bad luck with the two olight weapon lights I had,the mounts broke on both of them, my hand helds have been great. I’ve had an olight m1t for like two years… I’ve dropped it probably 200 times and it still going strong. I’d like to add that some people are of the opinion that even if item A is worse than item B if item A is made in America you should buy it over item B. I’m of the opinion that even if item A is made in america it’s still made with Chinese parts 🤷♂️
If you buy from Amazon make sure it says "sold by and ships from Amazon" it will indeed be the real deal then, also they have serial numbers you register with streamlight
@@thecocooreo i got a fake hlx that was supposed to be sold by shipped by Amazon. Contacted streamlight and they sent me a new one. Now i just buy lights from primary arms
@@itsamk18-ish good dude. They have deals anyways. Optics planet also considers weapon lights as "optics" so when Optics planet has "Optics" sales you can get all weapon lights on sale through them. Often. I just got 2 of these both for 247 total.
Bruh. You seen the price?? Besides, it's a BUDGET weapon light series. Not sure if I'll even continue it tbh, I only really planned on doing the Olight and Streamlight. Originally it was meant to be a direct comparison, but that would've been way too long
I’m kiddin bro that’s awesome peole really don’t give olight a chance I have 10 pistols with the Tlr1hl and 4 with modlites and just picked up a baldr pro r and I’m impressed with the quality

Now get a replacement lens bezel from streetlight. Keep it going.
Nice effort man.
