Incredible little light! 5 lumens is brighter than you think for those close up tasks and lasts for 16 hours on that low setting! I have 2 and I carry them everyday!

These are great lights, i have 6 that are now 3 years old. I use 1 as my edc and it still works great. I keep one in the truck and our car. They are durable and dependable. They are cheep enough that you can buy a bunch of them and stash them places. I have 1 in my garage tool box, in my bugout bag and in my medical bag. They are great little lights.

@michaelmelling93332 жыл бұрын
I bought one a month ago (in desert tan) and find it to be a wonderful quality product and especially when considering its insanely low price. The 5 lumens is enough for nearly all of my needs, including when I'm standing in front of a mirror trying to locate an eyelash that's fallen on the old eyeball.😬

I have the Olight i3E EOS, 100 lumen, little key chain light (as well as a few gun lights now!). I love it, for size and convenience. But, this would be great to leave in the vehicle, or night stand. The features are amazing for the money. This would even make a great Christmas gift idea, for everyone!

I bought one after i saw you mention it on Facebook, i believe. Lights up at a good 50 yds on turbo. Only negative I have on it is that it starts to get real hot after more than a minute on turbo. But, i have been carrying it instead of my microstream since i got it.
@chasemer66 жыл бұрын
I bought one of these soon after they came out and I love it. The specs are awesome for a AAA battery. Very high quality little light. And even though it’s not tactical a tail cap activation is high on my priority list. I checked all the boxes for me.

I loved my microstream, best EDC light I ever carried... until I bought this. The low/high setting is something that I thought I would dislike compared to a simple on/off light, but the trade off to battery life on low and the lack of need for 180 lumens on high all the time makes it a no brainer. I would recommend this almost everytime.

You're a fool if you buy one of those at full price. Hang around their website for a bit, use the scootch code and get one for about five bucks in a bundle. I've bought three through olight two item bundles and they've all worked out to about three bucks. I mean...five bucks is like harbor freight territory! Instead you get an olight. Just get on Amazon and buy a cheap battery charger with some rechargeable aaa batteries. Can't recommend enough.
