The Rovyvon A5 is the one light to rule them all. Very light, lots of features, and it glows in the dark.
I really like their Angels Eyes line. I have their E5 and the AAA alternate power source is kinda nice to have
I had the A8 but it got too hot for my liking.
I have the A4 Ti and the A8, both absolutely fantastic and blow Olight away IMO. I have the A8 on my keys in case I break down, got the flashing red light on there
That A5 was EXACTLY what I have been looking for just purchased. Thanks!
Really enjoying this series this week man. Great production, looking forward to this premier.
This is probably my favorite segment of flashlights... recently using the streamlight pocket mate. It's really nice.
Great list and video!
My current most used small keychain/pocket lights are the Lumintop EDC01, and the Rovyvon Auroa A8 and E3 Angel Eyes. The E3 is easily my favorite due to 1) size, 2) "dual fuel" with a USB-C rechargeable LiPo and traditional AAA, 3) aesthetics and form factor, and 4) functionality with the various output modes
For family members not into this stuff, I get them a Nitecore Tube… $12, lots of bright colors, size and weight of a key, usb changing and dead simple UI. For myself, I always choose something with a clip that points the light down when clipped to shirt or waistband. That’s my favorite approach for hands-free use.
If it had type C it would 100% have been on my list. I also excluded a lot of other lights for being micro usb.
@@maxlvledc I hear that, although for the people I’m gifting these to USB-C is new tech.
So much value in this video, thanks so much for taking the time to make these videos!
Love the Lumintop EDC01. Been on my keychain for 4 years. Came in handy so many times. Even simply dropping my keys at night and can find them with the glow in the dark diffuser. Well worth the £7.99 it cost me.
👍. I always get the “free olight” in the sales.
My favorite in this size is the Mass drop brass AAA made by lumintop.
It's not fancy ultra bright or even very cheap so I wouldn't expect it to make your list, but it's my favorite pocket light and it's been in my pocket every single day for 2 years at this point.
If it ever needs replacing I hope I can get another, I just may have to buy a spare to keep on hand.
I've been carrying a Rovyvon Aurora for the last 3 years and the battery life is starting to go down. It served me so well that I just bought a second one to replace it. Nothing else comes close to it for me.
RovyVon Aurora A8 (warm/UV/Red) on all keychains. They are all holding up fine and the ridiculous magnetic clip means I can stick my keys to the fridge or wherever. My house+Jeep keys have the E8AngelEyes.
I moved all my free olight i1r (of various varieties) that I have to be zipperpulls on my coats and jackets because they are far more durable and unnecessary backup backups to my EDC.
GF loves the imini2 for keychains
I'll have to check out that EDC01, I like the options it presents.
Great keychain flashlight video
Another great video! I think the Rovyvon Angel Eyes series is also a good option, E1, E5, E7 & E8. Dual power: Rechargeable and AAA.
❤ miniature torches 🔦, love olight and r- von ❤❤❤
I mini and I mini 2 are my favorites
I just got the Lumintop EDC01 and I thought it's a little hard to turn one handed. In addition to being awkward for me to control, it was causing me to accidentally advance it from low to high. So I removed the O ring and I like it way more that way! Turns super easy now. I know it's not as water resistant, but I can live with that. More worried it might cause a problem with the threading, but it was bugging me too much with that O ring.
shouldn't cause issues with threads, just affects waterproofness.
Nice lights !
For keychain....I still use a Photon Micro light...because it is the size of a quarter...and good output for size. I use Olight I3E in 5th pocket, with SAK Rambler.
Another great video. The rovyvon lights are fantastic as edc lights. If they made them slightly longer with a more stout pocket clip they would be perfect in my opinion. 650 lumens is plenty for me.
Nice look. I've tried quite a few of those, except for the AA Lumintop you showed; I do have their Tool AA, which is a good one.
The Olight i3e is a real disappointment though, as it will only take 1.5V AAA; it will not run on a 1.2V rechargeable. To get that, you have to get the i3T, which isn't one of their giveaway items. On some of the little ones (but not Olight), the battery is a replaceable 10180. I have a couple of the Rovyvon knockoffs; they're fine, but just like the Rovyvon, are for collecting only, due to their non-replaceable batteries.
The imini2 does live on my keychain as a backup. The original imini was a sad joke, with its 3xLR41 cells. It was tiny, but way too big a pain to keep powered.
Old school twisty Muyshondt Aeon forever for me.
Olight is a great marketing company selling good to very good product. Reminds me of Bose, or Beats. Never would feel ripped off at sale price, never would feel like I got what I paid for at MSRP. As for their keychains, the I3E eos is best as you can put it on, twist slightly back, and then you can just press slightly on the head and have a momentary light without having to do a twist while carrying groceries, etc. Much easier to single hand it.
Why is the Maglite AAA LED Solitaire always overlooked?
It is such a great little light. Simple, relatable, durable, inexpensive and made in America.
I like the nebo slim mini carry it every day use it every day at work real handy just not a long battery life
The RovyVon A1 are $15.96 right now. Cheap as they get.
My keychain light is the Nitecore Tini 2. It has a LCD display which shows the light run-time per output mode - very useful to know when to recharge the light.
Yeah, mine too. Huge oversight IMO.
How long have you had it for?
I gave my i1r2 to my sister (who would still rather use her phone light). Im using the opportunity to upgrade. I tried and enjoyed the ek1 but it broke surprisingly after a few months. I might try the aurora a8 next.
Still running an old Surefire Titan. Very tough
Im looking for a really small torch for my keys as iv already got an A5 i use round the house daily but wanted to mention its fantastic. I got the cree version and love the colour temp beam pattern and even the side leds mirror the warmer high cri main chip so 10/10.
The Lumintop EDC01 is capable of running 10440. Been running mine for months now and so far, I've had zero problems except for the heat, but it's manageable.
Had no idea about the trick of getting it for just the price of shipping! I used it as an excuse to get a baton 3 clip for my ts10. Excited to try out this i3e!
How?
@@b00nd0cks8int you’ll have to wait until they have the promo going again! (Not sure if it’s still going or not I haven’t looked lol)
I seen a nebo, nitefox, fenix, keychain lights as well there is so many options.
Hey hey! Let’s see this!
Tini 2 needs in it. Good review.
I think I added to master list
magnets will hold if attached vertically (one above other) due to weight rather than horizontal where weight works against magnets. Budget friendly S12
Have you tried the lumintop frog?
I didn't know that the Rovyvon pocket clip is magnetized. I like to have a i1r with the car keys. I can recharge it while I'm driving. Only miss the pocket clip.
Is there any alternative for the imini 2? And I don’t mean only a small flashlight but a flashlight with that specific magnetic actuation. I really like the design and all, but i need a bit more power than what the imini 2 has.
Lets goo
A4 pro is my fav
I would be really interested in a comparison video of all the Rovyvon lights that you have, especially the ones in the A series, because it is very confusing to figure out what all the different models do and what features they have.
really good point..I dont own all of them sadly.
Love the video man. I love the lunentop bean pattern but hate the color. Is there any other flashlight that is thst strong but has high cri or neutral white with that beam pattern. The way it lights the whole area. If anyone knew it would be you. Thanks man.
There is, the prometheus beta QR...very expensive
Does any of these lights have color options on led ? High cri or neutral white options ? Great video.
the RovyVon and Skillhunt both have high CRI options.
👍🏻🔥
What about the Nitecore Tini2? I think the remaining time feature is a major advantage.
its a little bigger than I was going for, and its only IPX54 I believe, still....I'll add it to master list.
BORUiT V3 - the best
Whats about the aurora a28? Sounds stupidly good (while being a bit thicker)
Very good, but outside of my size range for this particular video. If you feel comfortable, go for it!
Community, I just moved to the country and I need some recommendations on how many lumens do I need for headlamps, flashlights, and camping flashlights, a spotlight, and work lights for DIY projects. Thank you.
oh boy...in the country you need a variety of different functions. Headlamps should be fine at around 500LM or lower for top end, go with larger batteries if more runtime is needed.
A thrower is key, as you can reach out at long distances 500-1000lm, but with 100,000 CD or higher
Right angle flashlights (aka) headlamps can do a lot of what you need then supplement from there.
Also the aaa olight can use a 14440 battery. HOWEVER use at your own risk. I burnt one out bc it turned on in my pocket.
Skill issue
I've heard that lumintop AAA lights can handle 10440s without incident. At least if the light were only used at length in its medium and low modes, there shouldn't be much concern, should there?
it can fry the light, I wouldn't recommend it.
@@maxlvledc Thanks for your recommendation! I definitely won't use Li-ons for unrated lights.
Shoot out for the explaination about aurora series thanks mate 🙏
Nitecore tini 2 is a beast, should have been added
Rovyvon is STRICTLY better
Olight i3t with a lifepo battery. Impressive output in a compact size.
Not a keychain light. Too big, does make an edc list easily though
@@maxlvledcsorry, I meant i3e.
I’m new to the EDC flash light world 🙃 Hey can anyone help? I’m trying to buy the lumintop Edc15, and I want to get the 14500 3.7 rechargeable AA. but I’m not sure which one is the right one please let me know.
Acebeam and lumintop both sell the type C batteries separately on their websites I believe.
👍🍻
What are the 14500 batteries that you use?
Mostly what comes in the flashlights, but if I'm looking for good quality...Vapecell
Which lights will featured in this video?
You will see, but links should be active for everything in description
I need a good edc work light. Preferably 3hrs run time minimum (about the time you work before going on break). Magnetic tail, small, and easy to charge. Anyone have any suggestions? Preferably under 100 bucks since flashlights tend to runaway to other people's hand more than any other tool.
Wurkkos fc11
great pick!
How bright does it need to be? reversable clip? When you say easy to charge, what does that mean exactly?
Streamlight nano
The Rovyvon took "inspiration" from the Nitecore Tiki. Even though the Tiki is older and uses a micro usb, I feel like the plastic is of higher quality that the Rovyvon. My Rovyvon has crack where my older Tiki is still like new.
um...thats actually not true. The tiki came out after the first gen rovyvon.
Can you please remove the trackers you somehow got on my phone?
The notification you were gonna drop this one showed up when I had finally given in and had started to look around for a decent keychain light. Actually, I alt-tabbed from the store with a preselection on it to youtube 2 minutes after that notification went out....
Stopped my serious looking, cuz you spared me a lot of orientation time!
That's too funny
Can’t help but notice you left out the fenix e02r and e03r… 😅
And all FourSevens & Prometheus models like the Preon & Beta-QR V2.
The Prometheus Lights are easily the most overpriced lights on the market...$60 for an AAA powered light in aluminum made in china is straight up crazy sauce. I had one in fact, finish flaked right off.
both of those are micro USB sadly, which is why they are both missing.
@@maxlvledcFenix e03r v2 is Type C.
@nikolay821 the one I got in the mail was micro usb...I need to check again
Algo
Nice list!
I'm surprised how heavy some of these really are to fit the bill of 'keychain light'.
That said, I am disappointed to not see the Nitecore Tube that really defines the 'keychain light' concept. (Weighs less than 10gms!)
Way better and reliable than the Photon light of the 2000s that probably started it all.
micro USB, otherwise it would be on here.
AAA would be the limit for me for keychain use
Where is the nitecore tini 2, buddy? It's been hanging off my keyring for a month, 21 grams, titanium, 500 lumens turbo, perfect.
The rovyvon is smaller and brighter with better waterproofing. For this list I limited it to only top 10. It is however in the master list.
@@maxlvledc fair enough, but it's small and light and bright enough :-) surely it's objectively better than many on your top 10, even if not that one in your eyes? Or too coloured by absolute size / small?
What about the lumintop frog😮
nope, its has a third component to charge, and if I remember correctly, that is also micro usb. I didn't include ANY flashlights that were difficult to charge.
@@maxlvledcfair enough you need a separate charging thingy. Fortunately It is usb c though.
Bump
Olight get extra points for marketing to youtubers, who then market them to everyone else.
I mean, I liked them way before I worked with them. I have a yellow diamond coin to prove it.
@@maxlvledc They appear to test well, they are just known for aggressively marketing to youtubers with incentives to get them to push their products. I hope you are enjoying your yellow diamond coin, I imagine you could build a pyramid out of them ;)
I1r2? I didn’t see it
Its the pro version.
Fenix E03R v2.0 .......
Olight is much cheaper and better
I usually take keychain flashlights off, because I’m carrying a dedicated Olight.
