  • $20 for this new light from Olight World - great little light that I'm loving so far. The cost is low and the value is high. With 180 lumens and having it run on 1 AAA battery - that's certainly a win - check it out!

    It's been good to me. One advantage is that triple A's are readily available when there's a panic buying.

    I recently bought the Olight and am blown away by the quality and practicality of it! The 5 lumens is perfect for standing in front of a mirror and removing eyelashes from the old eyeballs (which happens a few times a week).
    Thanks much for the great Review!!

  • @rickc4317

    I just pulled the trigger on this, 25.95 on Amazon Canada free shipping thanks to Prime. I used to EDC the Thrunite Archer 1av3 but it was so unreliable 50% of the time it would not even turn on... I used to think it had the best features for a flashlight that size. I'm also eyeing the Olight M1T Raider.

  • @jonl207
    @jonl207 6 лет назад +5

    I love Olights and I liked your vid, but I'm not sure I agree that it beats the new Microstream, which has 250 lumens, runs quite a bit longer and is USB rechargeable. Granted, it's $30, but it appears to have some clear advantages. The only thing that seems odd to me about the new Olight is the 21 minute run time on high. Now, perhaps other companies lie about their run times, but this seems very short. Would appreciate anything thoughts on what I may be missing. Thanks for the video.

    I miss the i3s. I feel like the low mid and high settings are more useful/practical than the i3t’s low and high setting.
    Right now the most comparable to the i3s is the fenix e01 v.2, but it doesn’t come with a clip.

  • @just4therecord

    Is it possible to hack it to only turn on the 180 Lumens every time? How does the push button works anyway?

    Using a protected ICR 10440 li-ion 3.7v rechargeable battery (same size as AAA) will double the lumens making the i3T EOS amazing bright on high mode. Unfortunately each battery cost $3.50-$4.00

    The microstream has some big drawbacks. The button sucks. Mine flickers on low. The USB charging is nice unless you decide to go outdoors with it and need a battery pack to recharge it.
    That being said, just a few minutes on high is a joke. 9/10 times you’ll be using your flashlight on high. Even though it just takes one AAA battery, you’ll need multiple to keep this thing running for extended periods. The microstream is brighter and the battery lasts longer before having to recharge.
    I’d take the microstream. There are things I don’t love about it but it’s just all around a damn good light.

  • @Clickbaiters

    My Olight warranty experience has been a freaking joke. I sent them an email concerning a warranty claim on my light and it took them 6 days to respond. They wanted to know when and from who I bought my light. After responding, they have seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth as I haven't heard back. I own 4 Olights but I doubt I will buy more. 5 year warranty my ass.

  • @jayquick6520
    @jayquick6520 3 года назад +2

    Too much going on with this light to be a micro stream killer. 45 lumens for 2.5 hours. That’s it. No high no low just light. This is in a class of its own. A quirky class.

  • @EricFabianLozano

    Not worth the price. The Zanflare f3 is half the price ($10) and a much better AAA light. Has three modes (which all AAA should have). 5 Lumens is not enough and while 180 is awesome, it only runs 21 minutes. If it had a 50 lumen mode, that would be the best of both worlds (enough light and still last battery wise).
    P.s Olight customer service SUCKS.

    • @EverydayTacticalVids
      @EverydayTacticalVids  6 лет назад

      I agree that’s not a ton of output. Well it’s not a ton of output for a long time. I do think it’s a cool light since I don’t need to be using it a ton, short bursts won’t use up my battery too quickly. I will be interested to compare this to the new streamlight microstream in the future.
