Olight Arkfeld Pro - full review and comparison with the Nitecore EDC27

[@Seth6756]

Never knew UV light was awesome for charging watches. Thank you!

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Absolutely. I used to keep a small black light by my bedside just to amp up my watches at night. This is much easier and more portable lol

[@williamwright2093]

I've been waiting for your review on this. I have a couple of Olight products. O'Pen Pro, Baton 4 (current EDC), Seeker 4 Pro (in it's holster on my headboard), an Oclip that was a gift for my letter carrier, and several I3Es that I received as free gifts and gave to my grandchildren. This Arkfeld Pro has been tempting me for quite some time. I was hoping they would do an upgraded version of the Arkflex with additional lights, but I am definitely gonna jump on this Arkfeld Pro. Thanks for your review!

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

That’s awesome, glad you’ve found so many lights that make you happy. And I’m glad I was able to help you find another one.

The uv light is useful in camping to illuminate so types of scorpions, also the magnetic in the base allows you to stick the light to stuff while you work.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Ahhh. I didn’t know the scorpion thing. Thank you.

[@changeworldwide1]

The Pro laser is supposed to be able to be on with the flash light. What are the steps for that? Anyone know?

[@kurogana01]

Turn laser on, then double or triple click for turbo, once both on, hold button to adjust the modes as normally

[@changeworldwide1]

@@kurogana01 thank you. Got it working.

[@Philly1958]

If it didn’t have that gas station knife look with that dopey graphic I might consider it.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

This is only one special edition. The rest are in solid colors with no graphics on them.

[@PkwyDrive13]

I've only used the UV for out in the woods or at the lake looking for scorpion's. Oh and checking the sheets and phone's for spunky stains.

[@dragonram7]

Damn. Bought the olight a few days ago. But, for my security detail, edc27. Thanks. I did look at surefire stiletto, but it's just not keeping up to the other two.

[@bigdaddypain295]

28 thousand dollar knife? I guess what they say is true, there really is one born every minute.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

It’s ok to admit that high end quality is beyond your comprehension.

@@bigdaddypain295😂 you’ll want to watch the video I’ll be making on it.

[@bigdaddypain295]

@@JimSkeltonKnives definitely won’t miss that. Honestly if I had the coin I’d probably buy one. My most expensive knives right now are my 2 Rockstead’s

[@g4outdoors]

I just came from another channel that has your video up as theirs. Awesome content! But I can't give you a 100% watch time because I already watched on the other channel LOL.

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

That was probably my second channel (AtoZEDC) that I just launched. But Thank you for looking out, I appreciate that. Somebody had done that to me years ago and I had no idea for a long time.

[@bamabladez]

Arkfeld is by far my favorite edc light. I have a wish and suggestion to Olight. Make this bad boy in Titanium with a beautiful milling patern similar to we see on aftermarket knife scales. A beautiful polished angled parallel or sunburst pattern would be incredible. Ideas are endless. Great review! 🫡✊️🇺🇲

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

Funny you should say this. During their last sale in June (or was it in May?) they did a collab Arkfeld Pro with guntuber Sootch in titanium with milling that replicated looking down a rifled barrel.

[@bamabladez]

​@JimSkeltonKnives oh wow! Hate I missed that. I will have to look that up..hopefully they do more thank you sir!

[@Chrisfortier1]

I love mine use the UV light more than anything.

[@AriR6R]

what do you use the UV light for

[@TopDog8762]

They serve two different roles. But the EDC27 remains dominate for me.

[@AriR6R]

what about the edc25

[@mwb5987]

Yeah but who wants a light at 3000 luman for 5 seconds then it turns down anoying as hell

[@JimSkeltonKnives]

1) 5 seconds is an insane exaggeration 2) ALL lights have a short step down due to thermal regulation. 3000 lumens produces a lot of heat. If they didn’t step down, the soldering inside would melt and the drivers would become unresponsive. You can’t produce that kind of power in a package small enough to fit in a pocket without drawbacks.

[@mwb5987]

@JimSkeltonKnives I agree and I understand but I would rather spend more money for something that can take the heat and not melt it's 2024 we need to stop buying stuff that is grossly marked up compared to the parts put in the item.
