Olantern Stretch vs Fenix Lantern | The Choice is Obvious

[@shahabsoleimanijeda4135]

Thx. I bought Fenix. I see the Olight in the shop, but I decided to buy cl26r pro and now I see your video and I’m so happy that I chose the Fenix. 😂

[@jbusley]

I’ve got a self built Promaster converted van. Own an Olight stretch. Plastic not glass. Biggest battery by far. Allows me to use no electricity at night for a week without a charge

[@SE7ENinc1]

I have all of these lamps, including the famous Sofirn BLF LT1. But I still grab my olight for the camping trips every time because I know the quality and battery life will be there. Glad you included the wuben. Great floodlight to keep in the back.

[@electrictao5180]

Not looking for a camping lamp, but the Olantern would be a great high capacity alternative for an at home power down scenario. Pricey but who cares when the grid is down. Thanks!

[@MarineX]

Not a bad idea

[@avavanpelt926]

The bigger bronze-y one I have the mini version. Or something similar. Its like you cut off the base. It can produce yellow and white light. As well as be recharged. I quite like it.

[@tecnotrog1]

The Wuban is the most practical for me,but not gonna lie, i like the lantern. 🦉

[@chrisjohnson7929]

It depends on the use case. The Olight is better as part of your emergency kit while also being good for car camping. If you are backpacking though, I would probably go with the Fenix.

[@randomescu]

my choises are Fenix CL 27 and 28 R. there are much more pocketable then the classic felinar look.

[@bryoncatterall]

Going with the fenix, also a big olight fan but for my needs fenix has the vote..

[@robludwigsen7831]

Honestly, the streamlight rechargeable lanterns are perfect.

[@MikeandIkes_EDC]

That Fenix is sweet! I like all the fetures

[@TheRealDoctorBreezy]

I love the look of the Olantern, if it was a bit more compact it would be a definite cop.

[@SidW-l4z]

What’s the telescoping part made of on the olantern? Thanks!

[@PittiesAndMore]

Aren't you able to change the light color from bright white to a warm light on the Wuban? I have the Fenix CL26R and I like it but you cannot change the bright white color and a warmer light.

[@amaninaroom8678]

I think the olight mini lantern would be better for an face off but interresting video, got some infos out of it thank you

[@redpillnibbler4423]

Many thamks

[@Omnivorous1One]

Biggest issue I have with Olight is they insist on using proprietary batteries for most of their lights. I already have spare 18650 or 18350 batteries so I refuse to be cornered into having to buy more Olight 18650 batteries because their lights wont work with standard batteries that everything else uses.

[@seren1ty755]

Sofirn BLF LT1 blows these lanterns out of the water. No other lantern that I have seen yet have come close to the value and features on that lantern.

[@MarineX]

I saw that one, it has the smallest battery out of all of these. But what special features does it have maybe I need to check it out?

[@PittiesAndMore]

@@MarineX It has candle light, lighting storms, SOS, soft lighting (2700K), white lighting (5000K), 800 lumens, 4* 3000mAh batteries, two and an aluminum shell. The only thing is heavier than the Fenix.

[@donaldstrader7241]

@@PittiesAndMore And it can run from any combination of one to four of those batteries. I have a Sofirn BLF LT1 sitting on my desk. To make full use of the interface can be confusing, but crib sheets will fit in the battery compartment. LOL. However, if you get confused, no real problem. Just turn it on, it will work. Since it has four batteries and is well built out of aluminum and heavy plastic diffuser, it does weigh more. It is also tougher and more water resistant. Mine won't act as a powerbank, but later models will. I consider it my best lantern out of the several I have. I keep at least one other lantern around that will work on rechargeable AA batteries, just in case. The Olight Prowess will probably become an interesting alternative.

[@dannyrock4738]

Fenix is the way to go.

[@CompassCustomCreations]

Great review as always. What are your thoughts on the Olight Obulb?

[@MarineX]

I need to try one. They offered me one last year but I said no because I didn't feel like making that content

[@kkdm7611]

I like Fenix more. What watch you have? it looks very nice :)

[@MarineX]

I'm wearing a Benrus Type I-C check it out here shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=2548348&u=3132244&m=118121&urllink=&afftrack=

[@kwjr.9569]

Fenix seems like it would be the most useful??

[@benjaminreed3923]

I like the stream light lantern

[@MarineX]

You and me both

[@LeoLiburon]

Or be me and plan on buying both or likely all 3.

[@FoOkDoOsLe]

The Olantern seems to be trying too hard to look like a traditional lantern but just looks like a lot of unnecessary bulk to me. Fenix wins in my book. I also like the compact Wuben.

[@MarineX]

I really love that Wuben.

[@clayknowles7382]

Prefer the warm color of the Olight.

[@Cotterpin_Doozer]

Fenix lantern seems slightly overpriced considering made in China? Sofirn's L1TS is regularly on sale for about $30-35 similarly specced albeit its plain jane look, only 500 lumens and no magnetic base which I have 2 of as well as the previous gen non telescopic olight lantern also got for about 40% off a year ago (25% + AU$20 ebay special at same time, hehe) as well as its' mini equivalent for 25% off. House looks so cosy at night with the house lights off and lanterns on.

[@kevinhauser8250]

Fenix wins hands down

[@BTeezy82]

I think the Fenix is the obvious winner unless your a Olight fanboy 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@howyoudurrinhunneh]

I own an Olight fanboy?

[@KonaCommuter]

The telescope feature on the Olight, to me, screams that it'll break at some point. No thank you

[@theweaselcat3564]

The Olight Stretch is made of steel.

[@theweaselcat3564]

And the lens is plastic, not glass

[@tomh4658]

Wow!! Smaller, brighter, smaller and weaker battery but longer battery life??? How is that even possible?? 400 hours is crazy as far as i know the olight only lasts about 120 hours at weakest setting? No offense, can you attest to that? Im willing to replace all my lights with those thingies cause its absolutely worth it for that battery life
