This is literally the best EDC flashlight right now on the market, not only for its price, but also for its 34DD foxy features. Very very handy to use for all purposes.
Great video, I have S1, S1R, S10R and I have modified the annoying clip on all of them. Being from the UK I'm not a gun guy but I do enjoy your review and update videos very much, keep up the good work.
Great review man. I'm really thinking about picking one up. My current EDC Olight is a little too long for me, it's still a great torch though. But I like the magnetic base and the short stubby style of the S1R
I have a Surefire Sidekick and use it just about everyday and haven't charged it since early January. It was a little weak yesterday when I had it on for a while, probably time for a recharge.
thumbs up. I wish the clip was stuck in one place so I could get used to indexing my finger on the button. I am always searching for button and I wonder how that would play out in a situation where i needed light now. Which is why I continue to carry my surefire as my EDC and my wife gets the olight. Now that i think about it I suppose i could JB weld the clip in place or something. I may try that. Other than that I think you are right. Its a great light and their recharging set up is a big win.
ive got a bunch of lights, I wanna try one of these. My last light I got was the new Streamlight 88061 ProTac 1L-1AA 350 Lumen Professional Tactical.. that can use (3) DIFFERENT kinds of batteries In it.. AWESOME LITTLE LIGHT.. not as little as this olight but its fairly small!!!
Any updates on the Tacoma. I Just purchased a 2016 so I've watch your other videos on your Tacoma a lot! Helped me purchase some gear to stock my Tacoma. So if you you have time a little update video would be awesome. Or a summer camping to follow up on the winter camping. Enjoy your videos man.
Absolutely love watching your videos!! Keep up the good work, I'm hoping one day to move out to Colorado and find a place to live but have you ever thought about doing a video for trail/hiking boots or shoes??
Is the pocket clip reversible so you can decide if you want tail up or tail down carry orientation? I do wish it had a tail button though. Think that's a deal breaker for me.
If you also carry a knife or a multitool u can stick the blade into a tree or a branch and atack the FL to the blade. So u can have light from above for your tasks. This FL is also good enough for industrial workers.
Why would you buy both lights?? And you forgot to mentios that the S1R needs special batteries, with an extra negative ring on the positive side. It will not charge regular RCR123/16340 's
I have the Olight S1 mini baton. A similar light. I have the problem of it turning on in my pocket. I like that I can use it one-handed unlike the foursevens light I usually carry. But the turning on in my pocket things isn't working for me.
I like to have a goal zero torch 250 in my truck and camping its 80 bucks but has USB and solar panel built in in back and a hand crank so I love it for out camping not to bright
Have you had any issues on its brightest setting with it almost Blinking from bright to dim? I'll also go to push the button and it won't turn on until i unscrew the tail cap and screw it back in
Dustin Virtue I have this issue too. Going to exchange it since it happens with a different battery as well. See www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/comments/5fl16n/common_olight_problem/ for info.
Hey, I'm trying to follow your lead and make my own Kydex holster w/ a caddy. Would you mind letting me know where I can find a blue training gun (HK P30SK) for molding purposes with Kydex? Much appreciated in advance!
Pretty good light, but for that cost ($65 on Amazon right now) I'd rather have a Rofis R1. The R1 has all the same features (magnetic tail cap, magnetic charger, very similar size, same number of modes including memory function), but it's $5 cheaper, has longer battery life, has a rotating head to really help get the light where you need it and it even comes with a headband.
Yeah it's a pretty cool light for sure. It's a little bigger, and I don't really like how much the head sticks out of your pocket - but a solid little light!
Hello! Thanks for taking the time to make these great videos. I like your channel very much. Can you tell me how I would order a holster from you. Great job, take care!
How do you like your red dot? I'm debating on getting one for my glock 19 or night sights. I'm also thinking about getting a lasermax spartan light and laser. I'd appreciate any feedback or advice you could give. Great video
One question, I've been using a Nitecore EC11 for over two years, 1000 lumen accroding to the specs. The thing is I lost it during a hiking trip and I'm looking to get another EDC flashlight, I use to do some farm work as a vet student and when night falls on us I need a powerful beam in a small package, do you guys know of another option that is on the same lumen output and size? (even better if it's smaller), or should I get the same model?
It's called the TD Elite Hoodie - www.tacticaldistributors.com/search?q=td+elite+hoodie - they make new patterns/colors all the time, so this is an older one that I don't think is available anymore.
You should wrap electrical tape around the tail-cap as a bite guard. Then you can grip it with your teeth to hold it more securely. Then you also have some tape handy for an emergency.
i gotta say, Ive had 2 x S1s and both SUCKED. The first one the on/off button died. the one I have now is on about 30sec then it flickers and shuts off.

Also, be careful these lights are extremely dangerous as the battery terminals are on the (magnetic) tailcap. I carried mine in my pocket with some coins and a coin stuck to the tailcap , shorting the battery ... Boom !
The main reason why you use/like a edc torch is because of a magnetic base? You're clearly a fanboi. I am second guessing your vlogs on weapons. Unsubscribed. RAH!!!
You should show the process of how you make the holsters!
MattCProductions I second that
Yep...same here. Might get me to buy one.

always enjoy your reviews. I don't think you ramble at all. it's a part of your personality. thanks for the great review!

I've been looking for something like this for ages, Thanks!
Now I'm binge watching all your videos lol, so much to learn!
Great review. I started carrying S1 Baton from watching your EDC video. Thanks for the great reviews.
I love these lights. I've given them as gifts and have a couple that I carry regularly. Solid vid.

Agreed - for what it's worth, I believe on the S1 Mini, the clip does not rotate. amzn.to/2oWL7PD
triple click for strobe as well, I carry the same light, love it. Keep up the good work, awesome vids!
Demitrious Abraham oh yeah, haha. I knew I'd forget to mention a thing or two... thanks for the reminder.
The S1R is my edc light. Like it but miss a momentary on/off switch.

I just ordered a rooftop tent (didn't receive it yet) - so stay tuned for more truck/camping videos soon(ish)

Hey mike, what variation is the one you're reviewing? There is a lot of them....maybe you can talk about them!
Could you put the tail cap of the rechargable flashlight on the non rechargable flashlight?
If you also carry a knife or a multitool u can stick the blade into a tree or a branch and atack the FL to the blade. So u can have light from above for your tasks. This FL is also good enough for industrial workers.
Can you charge the S1 Baton and have it lite at the same time... kind of like a night light?
Why would you buy both lights?? And you forgot to mentios that the S1R needs special batteries, with an extra negative ring on the positive side. It will not charge regular RCR123/16340 's

It dumped here in Denver. Talk about a late storm.
Yeah, this bipolar state... haha
I need to check this light out.
I have the Olight M18 Maverick. Love this light, but battery selection is annoying. Carry it everyday though and has been useful.
What slide cut did you go with for your G19? Maybe a short video of custom work to your Glocks and how you feel about each one?
Thanks for all the great videos. Based on this review I ordered one!
I like to have a goal zero torch 250 in my truck and camping its 80 bucks but has USB and solar panel built in in back and a hand crank so I love it for out camping not to bright
Any immediate pros of the button on the side as opposed to on the cap?
do you have a websight for your kydex holsters?
Olight makes great products I love my S mini.
Hi. Great review. I have a question. Is this an neutralwhite or coldwhite you have in the video? Thx
I like my Olight for a an edc light, but like you I wish there was a version with a rear clicky switch.
Looks thick right off the bat. I like my Streamlight Protac 1AAA for EDC.
Another fantastic video. My goodness. ☺️
Have you had any issues on its brightest setting with it almost Blinking from bright to dim? I'll also go to push the button and it won't turn on until i unscrew the tail cap and screw it back in
Dustin Virtue I haven't come across that issue...
Dustin Virtue I have this issue too. Going to exchange it since it happens with a different battery as well. See www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/comments/5fl16n/common_olight_problem/ for info.
I had the same issue and ended up returning mine.
Will you be reviewing the new M2R that has the tail cap button?
Great video man. Hey what sweatshirt are you wearing?
I really enjoy your channel, keep it up and THANK YOU!
Hey, I'm trying to follow your lead and make my own Kydex holster w/ a caddy.
Would you mind letting me know where I can find a blue training gun (HK P30SK) for molding purposes with Kydex? Much appreciated in advance!
How has the lens held up? Ive heard its plasticky, and can scratch, but no long term use reviews yet
Very nice edc light
Great light carry every day
Since I lose every flashlight. What is the best bargain flashlight you have tested? Lets say under $40.00
question for you, I was wondering if your wife has maybe tried CCW? if so what does she use purse etc?
I, much like you have a flashlight addiction! Out of all of your Olights what 1 would you reccomend to someone who dose not yet own an Olight product?

Hello! Thanks for taking the time to make these great videos. I like your channel very much. Can you tell me how I would order a holster from you. Great job, take care!
Ah yes the hands free mouth hold. Been doing that for a few years with my four/sevens mini. It works.
check out the headlamp version.... of is dope
How do you like your red dot? I'm debating on getting one for my glock 19 or night sights. I'm also thinking about getting a lasermax spartan light and laser. I'd appreciate any feedback or advice you could give. Great video
could you do a house tour? would be awesome!😀😀

Cool video have have thought of making a video of ur pistols u have and what's ur second pistol besides the glocks. Be save and pick on going
what hoodie is that?!
Vlogs.....yessir!
What jacket are you wearing?
It's called the TD Elite Hoodie - www.tacticaldistributors.com/search?q=td+elite+hoodie - they make new patterns/colors all the time, so this is an older one that I don't think is available anymore.
Keep up the great videos!
Everyone please check out the Acebeam UC15 as this is also a very good little flashlight. 👍
Do you make owb holster g19 if so price
Great flashlight but Olight batteries don't hold a charge. I bought 2 S30R Baton III flashlights and both had bad batteries.
Review on that jacket?
Has anyone ordered a holsters from mike? If so, how long does it take for him to reply back. I just bought one and I'm curious.
The best part starts at 7:33 ; O
is this water resistant?
Ipx8
Great review!
Ultrafire 16430's?!
And,you can clip it on a cap. Like baseball cap. 👍
Put it on the bill of a hat. You sold me on that one. lol
You should wrap electrical tape around the tail-cap as a bite guard. Then you can grip it with your teeth to hold it more securely. Then you also have some tape handy for an emergency.
Ian Finch thanks for the tip as a mechanic i hold a flashlight with my teeth when im under a car and cant have a proper grip
Love your vids!!
lol nice footage inserts. funny.
Great review!!!
I have a mini if you want it
Haha, I'd take it off your hands if you don't want it. ;)
Will your wife be doing anymore vids in the future? I have several women who I have recommended her stuff to, who have loved them.
Do a all out 4 wheeling video with the tacoma!! Then do some run and gun video with the taco involved!!!!! #tacomaWorld
i gotta say, Ive had 2 x S1s and both SUCKED. The first one the on/off button died. the one I have now is on about 30sec then it flickers and shuts off.

GOOD STUFF!!!
should do live Instagram
Haha, I don't think anyone would tune in.
Thanks for all the "Teeth aren't tools" PSA. All you dentists out there. LOL.
I have similar light I rotate the clip over the button to prevent accidental operation
I hadn't thought of that, good idea!
Talk to Marshall at GoingGear.... Your subs and views are enough that he may hook you up.
You look like you're aged 36(in accordance with how young Asians look) yet aged 20 at the same time.
Also, be careful these lights are extremely dangerous as the battery terminals are on the (magnetic) tailcap. I carried mine in my pocket with some coins and a coin stuck to the tailcap , shorting the battery ... Boom !
If you claim a coin can short the battery; why does it not short every other time it is magnetically mounted?
Uh yeah you ramble too much.. So yeah..... Good video though 😎
DO NOT HOLD THE LIGHT WITH YOUR MOUTH I REPEAT DO NOT HOLD THE LIGHT WITH YOUR MOUTH
The main reason why you use/like a edc torch is because of a magnetic base? You're clearly a fanboi. I am second guessing your vlogs on weapons. Unsubscribed. RAH!!!
Efrain Suarez II haha, what exactly does that make me a "fanboi" of...? Magnets?
