Received my own Mini this evening. My best light so far at 66 years old. I still have my Nicholls Bros Dark Blazer Model 550 from by early teen years and it still works. My Dad gave it to me and it was my first real flashlight. The Mini has a great spot and the flood in the night woods is brighter than a cloudy day in the woods. I like it. I do like the switch and how it gives you a tactile buzz when it hits high and low limit. Indents would be nice. It does have a temperature controller to lower the power when it gets hot. Thanks for the review.
You're so welcome, Wildlife! Our email is in the about section on our channel page, I would love to see what that Model 550 looks like. You should send us a picture! Stay safe and take care!
I've used Olight for about ten years now, and these truly are first-class products. They are built like tanks, the user interface is always intuitive and easy to use, and they've never let me down. I can say the same about LED Lenser too.
Fenix make superb equipment, but in my experience their accessories are over-priced, which is not true of Olight or LED Lenser. To give you an example, a backup battery for the Marauder Mini is available from Olight and costs a mere £26.00; the replacement battery for the Fenix TK72 costs a whopping £75!!! Three guesses why I opted for Olight - again!
In either situation, I ALWAYS prefer that the batteries can be swapped with something that is nonproprietary, but if it does require a specific cell, I like when they are cheaper also. I haven't had an LED Lenser light for quite some time, so I think it may be time to grab one!
We have secured our winners for this giveaway! We have contacted and gotten their contact information. Congratulations to those who won and Good luck to everyone else on the next giveaways!
I would have to say YES to the title question!!! it checks all the boxes in a spectacular fashion!!! Flood, thrower and they even toss in colors!!! What else do you need? 🤣👍
i have a couple of their mini lights and they are very practical for EDC on a keychain or a small bag. bought a couple more during their sale this week. can never have enough of their lights :)
ALWAYS NEED MORE!
@@torchesandtactical It stops at more?
@@secondchance6603 haha. I don't think it would even stop at ALL!
Have the mini also, in midnight blue Have not put it to any real use yet, but so much fun to play with. Love it.
The more I bring it outside, the more I like it. A couple software/UI tweaks and this would be stellar!
Love this one same as you love the fact it has red green and blue light another great review 💪🏻
Do you have any experience with this light? If not, you'll be in for a pleasant surprise when you get it!
@@torchesandtactical i don't but i'm making it's on my list for santa this year 😂
Such a great presentation on this flashlight you gave I should hire you for their company as a spokesman anyway happy holidays and I love mine
Joe! You just made my day, man! Thanks for the kind words and I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday as well from Torches and Tactical!
Great review, thanks.
Thank you so much!
Thanks again, James!
No Tyler, thank you! Without the viewers, we wouldn't be able to make these videos!
Good vid like always!! Good luck on the gaw everyone
Thank you so much! We appreciate knowing that the viewers like the video. If there's anything you think we should add, let us know!
Got the i3e EO's as free gift. Impressive for a AAA alkaline set up. Love the marauder mini for it's dual functionality and ease of use. Not crazy about the dial but it's not bad either. Super cool looking flashlight that performs well. You can best it with two seperate lights but that would defeat it's purpose.
I think if the dial were brighter, it would be better!
I got mine in the army green colour and they are awesome. Such big power in a little unit. Highly recommend
I don't have many in the ODG colorway, but it is an excellent color. How are you liking the MM so far?
Absolute awesome have no issues at all. Highly recommended.
Very nice Review, thanks
Thank you so much! Let us know what review you'd like to see in the future!
got one...love it
Very exciting piece of kit!
I wish one of the 3 "colors" was UV!
There is a gentleman on Facebook that does this mod exactly. UV swap on one of the cookies, but I can't remember which.
Change red, green and blue into yellow! Make a third choice on the switch = both flood and throw at the same time. Moonlight choice would have been nice to have aswell! 🤗 Or keep red, green and blue but add those other mentioned things aswell, then we can truly say, it is all in one!
I definitely agree on the throw and flood mode on the switch. We recently got the TS32 from Wurkkos (yes, a review will be coming) and it is capable of that. Makes ALL the difference!
Overall excellent flashlight.
Such a great light with a bunch of versatility.
Informative video. I do wish it had a built in UV option as well. Just curious, ever used one of the O-Links with the MM? Thanks in advance. 😎👍🏼
I actually have tested an O-Link on the Marauder Mini. With the extra weight, I was not certain about the longevity of it being able to hold so I decided to stop, but I have been able to confirm that it will hold the marauder Mini. At least, in a stationary state.
@@torchesandtactical Thank you.
I awesome i love giveaways this mini is going to be a do all the rgb is super bright
We are trying to do as many giveaways as possible, so stay tuned. The bigger the channel, the bigger the giveaways, so tell your friends about the channel.
And yes, I am very glad we got our hands on the Marauder Mini. So capable. I frankly just wish it (along with ALL Olights) had higher CRI emitters.
Just liked, shared, and subscribed 👍
We appreciate you Juan! You're entered! Make sure your subscriptions are visible, as that's where we are going to pick our winners from!
The only problem with this light is deciding on which color. I went with burnt orange.
Great video! I am looking forward to getting my orange one soon, still waiting for it to ship 😒
I HIGHLY suspect you're gonna love it! I think the orange might be on the books as a "need to purchase" light.
Got my orange one a few days ago. It’s awesome. Lots of power in a soda can sized light. Completely lit a dark drainage field (20k square feet ) near my house with no issues. The spot is a laser beam. The RGB is enough to light up a huge area also. Best light I own, followed by my warrior 3s which is also awesome
We definitely want to get a warrior 3, but holding out until we can find a white one. Our white light collection is growing. We want to make it complete!
I have the Marauder 2 and purchased the Marauder Mini in orange. I was surprised how much smaller it was than its big brother. Having said that its size would still prevent it from being 'the only light you'll ever need' but it does give that idea a definite nudge.
I don't think there are many more functions one could request other than a true moonlight mode and the ability to charge your phone like it’s big brother (that function has saved my butt several times during power outages).
I like the double click to turbo and then double click back to medium combo. I wasn't sure what you meant about the flood and spot icons. The icons are the same on the Marauder 2.
I am curious to know what the maximum lumens would have been if the dedicated RGB emitters weren't used.
I own a Javelot Mini as well and I agree with you about the slight differences in the throw and beam on the Marauder Mini.
The proprietary battery wasn’t a deal breaker for me but having said that I did purchase a backup battery. lol
Thank you for yet another awesome review. Please keep them coming. 😊
Unfortunately, I agree. I think we're limited by technology to have a 1-and-done light, but man, this checks a TON of boxes.
@@torchesandtacticalDone! 🙂
Alan, did you get my response?
@@torchesandtactical Yes I did and replied.
I'm a flashlight freak, and I just love this Olight mini but my only problem is I have to buy all the colors.
Hahahaha. I feel you on that one, Joe! I have been trying very hard to have only a few accent colors, but other than that, just sticking with black.
Need em to Change the setup to switch back and forth between red and green for some hardcore games of red light green light with my daughter.
Hahaha. Yes! I mean, they might be blind afterwards, but this is awesome!
Hi do you know if you can turn on red without first going to white? Nothing worse than being in a camp chilling then you blast everyone with bright white before you get the red on. Thanks
Unfortunately, you do have to turn white in first.. No direct to red option.
Hold your t-shirt over it first? That sucks it cannot go directly red
Very interesting
Hopefully in a good way! :D
Finished watching ads .Hoping to still receive flashlights
We have a couple of videos coming up with some giveaways. :)
Could you mod it to strobe the colors?
That would require a firmware modification. As far as I'm aware, no one has done that yet.
Why can't I win something I've always watch your videos 👍
We do the drawings at random. Don't want to get blamed for rigging the system. Lol. Keep entering and you'll eventually get it!
It would be nice if we could charge that big battery out of the flashlight with that MCC...if you have the second battery. Just stick it on the battery...not only charge it în the flashlight.
I completely agree. Or even a small plastic host from Olight that will charge all of their batteries. I am surprised something like this hasn't come out yet.
@@torchesandtactical they might do something about this. Because of this kind of dedicated batteries i didn't buy another flashlights from olight. Last one was warrior M2R in 2019 because i can use any 18650 inside when i charge the battery externally.
@@cristianflorescu2827 I have a charger that might work for just this. I'll have to do some digging.
@@torchesandtactical i hope it will work with this battery. 🙋♂️
@@cristianflorescu2827 imgur.com/a/Ztg8iXP
If it has a positive center post, then this'll work!
marauder 2 is a bit bigger and better in every way by far.
I understand, but I think that's why they call it a "mini". A lot of similar features in a smaller package. Not everyone wants to king size their Burger King meal. 😁
Can you please clarify.
1. Spot light max throw.
2. Spot light max candela
3. Spot light max lumens
4. Flood max throw ? 600m ?
5. Flood max candela ?
6. Flood max lumens ? 7000 ?
The 600m is for the throw mode. The 7000 lumens is for the flood mode. They tell you the best of the specs, but each is mode dependent.
@@torchesandtactical can you fill in the blanks and give use the complete picture ? Best of stats is misleading and nonsense marketing BS It’s a work tool and we must have accuracy. In my job Life depends on it
www.olightstore.com/file/marauder-mini-user-manual.pdf
olight only requires that the light that needs to be repaired gets sent back, not your entire order. go check the website. you can claim only and exactly what you need to. you gave people bad info
I never said the entire order. I stated that if the item you are returning an item and a tier gift/free item is dependent on that item, then you'll need to send the tier gift/free item back also.
Please check www.olightstore.com/warranty.html under 30 day returns.
I appreciate the input, but we strive for accuracy. I understand that mistakes can happen, but this was not one of them.
