[@eddielittleii8919]

Thanks, I like how Olight is constantly upgrading their designs.

[@NekoWinters]

Glad I waited til now to get one, love it for my baby AK and the quick deta5ch mlok adapter let's me have the option to move it to the rifle if I'm going to the outside of my property to handle

[@danielrodriguez5463]

The PL 3 R is amazing

[@jeffbrown1755]

Will the pl3 fit on glock 41 sir ?

[@linux_38]

Coors should sponsor you lol. Great video and great feedback on products as always.

[@joshuanehlig1574]

I believe Olight also fixed the memory such that it will stay on high no matter how long it’s off if that is the last mode you had it in. The pl3 would remember high but only for a few minutes before defaulting back to low.

[@M0onM0nkey]

You and Mr gunsandgear always put out the best light reviews..kinda redundant but always enjoy both you guys videos.

[@depthcharge6215]

Yes but they hardly ever actual test them. They do fail easily.

[@HarleyWood23]

I can’t speak for him, but I’ve beat the shit out of these lights many times. Most of these videos are just my own testing before I agree to publish a video recommending a light. Here are just a few… Olight Odin 500 Round Test kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYK1lH-chr59i7M Olight Baldr RL Torture Test kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIG8hWWsltGiqpY Olight Mount Test kzbin.info/www/bejne/rGmtdoOFlr2SbpI Olight ODIN vs. SureFire M600 - Drop Test and Beam Comparisons kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4PKhWR_mM2Ke68 Olight ODIN - Torture Test & Giveaway kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGWvaH6qeLOhaas Olight Odin 250 Round Test kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpTTkJSKlNRqetE

I love this lights . !!

[@joekasperek1086]

Nice look bro thx

[@theohiaoancowboy9866]

Are they the same size pl2 to pl3r i want to know i have a canik mete and the pl3r but i have only found holsters in the pl2 from canik

[@Viperjjr]

Another great review, well done. 👏👍🏼

[@RadDadisRad]

Need the nub screw option for the Pro.

[@jamesBGgarner]

Awesome video

[@k4vms]

The older lights also have an adjustable clamp where you can adjust how it fits on you firearms. I believe the older clamp is a superior locking device especially since you can no longer replace the batteries. If your out and the batteries go dead your only option is to swap lights, well trying do that with the newer light where with the older light you can do this in the dark even with your eyes closed very quickly no so with this new screw down and you really need to tighten it with a coin so you do not loose the light. Sounds like you have never ridden in a patrol car at night or gone in to a dark building doing a search. Ricky from IBM

[@BigBear--]

How does that not make sense to you? You just said it yourself, if the light goes dead I can swap batteries and be back up and running in a minute or less. If the rechargeable light goes dead, I gotta run home to charge it...which if you're in the middle of a search, in the woods, or anywhere else not near a charger, you're screwed.

[@vitelgandara6520]

Is the PL2 and PL3R the same size??? I can’t find a holster that fits my sig M18 with PL3R

[@briang7826]

Werkz makes a universal holster for most of the olights

[@alanbodnar6518]

Would you recomend the pl pro, or the pl3r for indor airsoft?

[@DemonratsRevil]

I recommend you stop playing with child’s toys :)

[@ImNotQualifiedToSayThisBut]

​@@DemonratsRevilI would recommend you to grow up and let people enjoy what they want.

[@KAIJINN.6]

What about holsters made for the pl pro will it fit the pl3R?

[@jonathanabreu7601]

Did you ever find out? I need to know before I buy w new holster

[@KAIJINN.6]

Does Pl3 r fits the same holsters as the pl3?

[@bluesbondsman]

yes all pl3 models are the same size, PL-3, PL-3R and the PL-3S will fit the same holsters

[@lapuissance7488]

Is it Tlr1 hl holster compatible?

[@jonnykontroletti5426]

Yes

[@JOMO_EDC]

I really hope I can win a PL3R. I need a weapon light and can’t afford one get in on this sale.

[@soppypeaches6682]

doesn't say its compatible with the glock 21 😢

[@DemonratsRevil]

It’s a fucking light on a rail. It will work fool. It doesn’t have to state it as being “compatible” with every damn Glock.

[@playboy901]

@@DemonratsRevil😂😂😂😂

[@DatNinjaGuyD]

@@DemonratsRevil damn, hurt my feelings just reading this lmao

[@depthcharge6215]

I always see these Olight but they never test them long enough. Many Olights fail easily. I had the Odin and it could not handle hot load of 556. The rail attachment failed after few shots.

[@HarleyWood23]

I ran a 500 round test with zero issues. I’m sure some QC issues slip through though. Here’s the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYK1lH-chr59i7M

[@jberts3141]

Do you think the pl3r is better for home defense than the baldr s?

[@HarleyWood23]

Depends if you love the laser or not. If so, the Baldr is your choice. If you’re not married to the laser, I would choose the PL3R

[@jberts3141]

@@HarleyWood23 I bought both 😆 I just wanted your opinion

[@RadDadisRad]

Comparing a Baldr S to a Valkyrie is an apples to oranges. The Valkyrie is a full size Baldr light without the laser. Also how fast it kicks down from the high setting to the low setting.

[@jberts3141]

@@HarleyWood23 so after receiving both the baldr s definitely looks better and fits flush on my sig p320 but the pl3r with a 12 min run time at 1000 lumens takes the cake

[@HarleyWood23]

@@jberts3141 nice. That was some fast shipping!

[@jesus2299]

How much did olight pay you?

[@RadDadisRad]

A good lumen/candela balance is necessary. I don’t believe this light offers that.

[@HarleyWood23]

I think it performed surprisingly well in the nighttime comparison though.

[@RadDadisRad]

@@HarleyWood23 I guess we want different things. I’d take less peak lumens and more candela.

[@weekendwarrior556]

I could use both lol

[@jaredgonzalez8421]

Pl3r was definitely better

[@fire93950]

🔦

[@MrLuckeastwood]

Olight really dropped the ball w such low candela. Definite pass for me

[@reiniergarcia]

I don’t like this one. Too low on low and too high on high.

[@BlueDude263]

eyes under shed.....

[@HarleyWood23]

Yeah. Kids cat. Good eye

[@lorknozzel11]

You said this is an integrated non-removable battery. To me that just means this is a future paper weight. Batteries have a finite lifespan. They will fail. 3 or 5 years down the road, maybe more depending on use, when the battery fails to take a charge, but the rest of the light works, you're stuck with buying a brand new light. I will pass on this.

[@tattoochef]

Most cell phones are the same way. Integrated batteries that can't be changed.

[@HarleyWood23]

@tattoo. Exactly. And people pay thousand for those, and upgrade every two years, but complain about a $100 light. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@pastrocks85]

Seriously… I just got mine for $80… I’m sure before the battery actually dies, they’ll be a new better light that that I’ll upgrade to.

[@BigBear--]

Dude 3 to 5 years down the road there will be much better lights to upgrade to, and that'll be waaaay before the batteries die in your current light. However if you do plan on only buying one light for the rest of your life, Olight does offer tactical lights with replaceable batteries. Just get the PL-3, or something similar.

[@tattoochef]

@HarleyWood yeah I don't understand the issue. Pay 1000 bucks for a phone ok.....80 bucks for a light...OH MY GOD NO!. makes no sense

[@winstonsmiths2449]

All the machinations of the light companies is such a scam. The user interfaces used by ALL of the mfgs, are crippled or at least extremely limited on purpose. As Anduril I and II have proven, you can tailor a light to do just about anything, including the temperature at which a step down occurs. There is NO reason that this light (and all others) cannot be programmed by the user, to have various high and low settings. ZERO reasons for not designing this into the lights. Oh, silly me. Sales, of course! But pimps gotta' pimp the product, and O.F. bois gonna buy the product. Part of the need to belong, identify with an "in" crowd (Surefire users). I own about 6 Olight WML, but will be phasing them out for Streamlights, at least on my primary firearms. Will pass the others along as time progresses. Great value with good feature, but that damn recharging cable being pushed as a feature is not! That means I have to carry a normal USB C cable and one or two Olight magnetic charging cables two recharge various devices. Olight had the genius idea of changing the polarity of the charging cable for newer lights, Old cables cannot be used interchangeably.

[@andyroo7395]

You don’t make any sense 😅

[@sirbalanced5486]

I would never trust O-Light in a defensive scenario

[@CarlosFonse]

Why not?

[@paladin11C40]

@@CarlosFonse Dont expect an answer, the O-light haters are strong in the gun community. I have PL-Pro on many of my pistols and love them. I am retired from law enforcement and would trust these lights. For me, they work just as well as the Surefire and Streamlights I have used in the past.

[@CarlosFonse]

@@paladin11C40 funny thing is that when they do is always the same arguments about something that happened years ago.

[@paladin11C40]

@@CarlosFonse Imagine if people refused to buy the Ford Explorer because some of the blew up in the 90s? I have a Javelot Tac rifle light, it is awesome. One of the things I like, it vibrates when the light reaches 30% battery and continues to do so every 10% after that. Really bright as well. Love it.
