The Best Olight Flashlights, Upgraded?? (Baton 4 & I3T 2 Overview)

[@ThisJustIn81]

Yes! I slept on the Baton 3....when I saw the 4 and how the case was also a battery bank, I had to have it. Thanks you for your time and the video!

[@matusknives]

This really is a coincidence of the year - I am looking at flashlights after well more than a year - and just watched your top-10 video. Then I accidentally saw the Baton 4 on the DE Olight webpage, went back to your channel and found this video. That is a SUPER cool product indeed. BTW - the charging case is already available here in DE directly from Olight - and that with a discount of around 25%. Let me only add - thanks for your excellent videos. Now I have more flashlight candidates than I would have imagined.

[@DoctorJones841]

11:07 The case is available separately under accessories already. It's on sale for $32 by itself.

[@maxlvledc]

Wow!! That's awsome

[@frostriver4547]

And it charges the Perun 2 and Baton 3 and let’s you use the features of the case with the Baton 3

Came here to say this! I picked up just the Baton 4 case to replace my Baton 3 case and come with me for travel. Flashlight and battery bank in one is awesome!

[@coryohanlan194]

That’s cool, I have 2 Baton 3’s with no case bc I didn’t care about the case but now I do, and I might buy another case lol

[@nickkammer5863]

I love Olight so much I had an alarm set for the exact minute that the sale started within five minutes of the sale starting. I’ve spent several hundred dollars please help I have problems but the darkness is not one of them

The case is the reason I got the Baton 4 kit in blue. It brings so many additional features it is absolutely great.

Great idea to add a diffuser!

[@markhorne6233]

the case lid being a diffuser would be an awesome update for the case

[@chainbenwa2713]

Why didn’t they think of that lol

[@OnusBones]

Nice review. The i3T is indeed one of the few Olights that uses standard batteries; I keep one in the car as a mailbox-checker.

[@Menuki]

The Perun and Baton use CR123 which aren’t exactly common, but not inaccessible. It was a nice option to have a few batteries to swap out in a pinch

[@freemarlochip]

Got the Baton 4 premium bundle with Perun 2 mini even before I knew it could charge the perun. This is got to be my new fav light and of course the case has a lot to do with it.

[@paul_miller43]

Aa a man who owns botb of the previous incarnations, im excited for these two

[@maxx620s]

I did exactly what you said. I already have so many baton 3s. I couldnt bring myself to buy the 4 quite yet. But the case - I picked it up so quick. Arrived today and I love it

[@maxx620s]

You mentioned the charging case wouldn't be available towards the end. I just would like to clarify that it is in fact available and still available at the time of my comment

[@maxlvledc]

yep! I didn't know till ppl commented. added that note in the description. Really glad it can be had separately.

[@fluxcap4630]

I don’t know why anyone would carry a case rather than just carrying a bigger light, which has more lumens and candela, but is still a smaller package.

[@cheeseswears]

Good for bags, purses and people who like to keep their torch away from the elements of being scratched raw dogging one in a bag with other items.

[@nickkammer5863]

I edc a 21700 seeker 4-perun2-Batton pro max depends on what I’m doing

[@JCreole]

Case is great for traveling, camping, keeping in your backpack and car….

[@frostriver4547]

Great for backpacking. With this I can use my battery pack to charge any other items and won’t have to worry about how much I use the light while out for multiple nights on trail

[@JoeSmith-tu2sq]

It may be hard on a long camping trip to find a tree with an outlet to charge your other light? Also I don't think most people are going to carry the case around and use the light in it. I think that feature is more for when the light goes dead and you still need to use it.

[@pretentiousname01]

Man. Olight is over here really tempting me. But I know as soon as I do, they will release a different color that I would prefer

[@uuuultra]

discord and reddit will shame you for not buying the newest versions 😂

[@loren481]

I picked one of the Baton 4 Premiums up mainly because of the charging case. Worth noting that the output spec says it only outputs 5 volts. It can handle enough amps to make it useful but if you want to charge something that wants 9, 12, 15, 20v, it won't work.

[@uuuultra]

wow

[@maxlvledc]

I was able to easily charge a smartphone, so for me that's good enough

[@loren481]

@@maxlvledc it will do most of what I want it to do, and I am happy with it. It would just be nice if it could also charge something like a Yaesu FT-5D :)

[@Reflect744]

They did state it only pumps out 5v so not sure what you were expecting to charge mate

[@loren481]

​@@Reflect744 I know, I knew that when I bought it. The USB-C standard is great but not everybody knows that some USB-C products only output 5v, so I commented about it.

[@TheoVannX]

Store the defuser in the cap as well as male the lid translucent and expand the defusion

[@maxlvledc]

[@alextaplin7354]

If you're looking at the Baton, go and look at the Wurkkos TS10 instead, I've got mine in brass with 3000k 519a emitters, it's a lot brighter but also more versatile than the Baton and it's less than 1/5 of the price. Also, carrying a spare battery or two in a case is still way more pocketable than the charger case for this, but why would you carry that case when you could just use an 18650 or 21700 light which gives better ergonomics and performance and still be more pocketable than a box.

[@uuuultra]

This is an olight sponsored video 😂

[@latidiouf5592]

Thank you so much for this comment, I went ahead and checked their website and they have amazing deals. Grabbed the TS10 V2 in titanium and a TS25 for only 65$!!! And they threw in a free battery as well

[@inBluEDC]

I got this light about a month ago and I've been abusing it and the case and it definitely is an amazing light. I also love using the case on break time on work to charge my perun 2 mini bc I work nights and have that light on all night

[@joshuecardoza]

How much greater would it be if they made the case's battery removable/replaceable!

[@uuuultra]

That's bad business though

OLIGHT IS LIGHTING UP THE GAME 💪🏾😎

[@bobone866]

[@uuuultra]

[@mshaftenberg]

When Olight announced the Baton 4, I instantly bought a spare Baton 3 as I don't like the clicky metal button. The interface is weird somehow.

[@thepenultimateninja5797]

1:30 Draining them too much actually can cause them to explode when you try to charge them again. Most chargers have safeguards built in to prevent this though, and will just refuse to charge a battery if it detects a starting voltage that is too low.

[@kingcormack8004]

If one already owns the Baton 3 is it worth another $50 for only 100 more lumens and a gimmicky power switch? Rhetorical question.

[@paulx7620]

They do sell just the new case.

[@uuuultra]

Nope 😂

[@coryohanlan194]

My opinion is Yes its worth to have a light and batter bank together, if you like the Baton 3. I was never interested in the case for the Baton 3 but with this new power bank I’m all about it. Gonna test it camping this week.

[@Bertg1982]

The i5t eos sounds great but I have the i5r eos and just swapped to a manker because there is no lock out mode or guard around the button so it always comes on when it’s clipped onto my pocket and if I don’t catch it in time it ruins the battery down so when I need it it’s dead. The manker I just got has a button that can’t get accidentally pushed but it’s about the same size. They need to add a lock out mode or guard the button

[@carrot5570]

That red olight baton 3 tho 🤤 🤤

[@CanItAlready]

I have tried really hard to like the i3t but after having two tail caps go bad and Olight sending me a replacement tail cap and then a new light I don't trust it anymore. I have a donut i3t that I just don't use because I don't want it to fail, but in that case what's it good for? I have a black one that I carry but rarely use because it's the replacement light for the second tail cap that failed. The i3t has gone from my most frequently used light to my least used light, not counting the keychain lights that I have too many of.

[@49shadesofj]

Get a 10440 and put in it and you'll love it. I3t old one or this new one. I3t are under 20 bucks on the regular. I haven't had one go bad but if it did no biggie.

[@CanItAlready]

@@49shadesofj A different battery isn't going to fix whatever the problem is with the switch. When it goes bad it just won't shut off.

That’s an amazing deal, I’m kinda pissed I got the Baton 4 and mini pen combo for $70 and I could have just paid 20 more and do what you did, because I know I paid 40-50 for my Perun 2 if not more.

@@uuuultra, yеаh, but 4th is so much superior than 3rd

[@onedirection3510]

I cannot relate to your enthusiasm for the i3T 2. For some very strange reason the i3T on low mode is distinctly brighter. Go figure. Yes, I suppose running a 10440 in the i3T is potentially risky but nonetheless, the performance is better and you wouldn’t need it on high mode for very long anyway. The extra 20 lumens on high with a standard aaa is negligible. The i3T 2 on high mode with a 10440 is definitely brighter than the i3T in high mode using a aaa but not by a ton. The i3T2 on low mode even with the 10440 is less bright than the i3T low mode with a aaa. So longer runtime on low mode but less bright!🤦🏼‍♂️ Baton 4 rocks! I think the overall consensus is that we all wish it ran on a standard CR123. Hopefully one of these days Olight will stop the whole proprietary battery thing. Of less importance, but nonetheless a consideration for many, the i3T2 has pretty weak color offerings. Come on Olight!
