I have the Olight PL Mini 2 in fde on my Glock 19X. I absolutely love it. Highly recommend.

[@alexngo929]

SpiritOfOi do you conceal carry? If so what holster are you using?

Mine arrived today in the mail, love it. Thanks for the recommendation. Will be looking to buy a holster off you in near future!!

[@billythekid7413]

Great video Mike! Answers a lot of questions! Hope you feel better

[@freeravenadventures6925]

I will put this on my G19 for in the nightstand. But when i carry the G19, i will take the light off. Thats why I like the quick detach

[@kmsharley75]

This is what I do with my P07. But I am going to save for a light bearing appendix holster, probably Legacy Firearms.

[@tullydicken830]

Awesome video, thanks for making great informative content!!

[@1967lathrop]

I had the same thoughts on the pl2 thank you I have bought the pl1 after watching your video. Good video. Helped me make up my mind and the validation of my own observations.

[@nickkazarian3334]

Great video as always! Thanks!

[@michaelbaiza99]

Love the gun videos! You were the first KZbinr I started watching when I got into guns! So keep the gun videos coming. I watch the overlanding videos as well!

[@Pointer2]

Thanks for the in depth review,been thinking of getting the Mini 2.

[@slocarey]

Love your gun vids! Keep them coming!

[@Speedy517]

Heel yes I’d be interested in a holster with that light. I got a S&W M&P 2.0 compact 3.6 because I I wanted a great balance of capacity to barrel length for appendix carry. But due to the rail length, the only light I can carry is the fat streamlight TLR-7 or this awesome little O-light. Leeeettt’s Goooooo!

[@joeheskett7225]

Really enjoyed the spill comparisons.

[@TheGunCollective]

Love seeing people cut to the truth. Great video Mike.

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Thanks guys!

[@InSightFreedom]

Good well discussed and described process from the holster maker end. The Mini 2 was a no brainer for me with the XD45Mod2 Subcompact and HK P30SK.

[@brandonfrazier8534]

Just got one of your holsters can't wait to get it

[@eddiet204]

Just got one for my M&P9c, my off duty carry. I wear it in a R&R OWB and I love it.

[@leonardsmith8516]

Will you ever do OWB or IWB other than appendix?

[@macalcord]

My EDC is a Sig P320 Compact and a Sig P250 SubCompact, I brought the PL-Mini for both and had no problems finding a holster that seats them both well.

[@kristopherwilliams1719]

I love the Mini-2. I'm just waiting on you to start making the holster to fit it before I actually attach it to my G19. So get to it! Chop chop!!! 😉😉😉

[@jameskrivitsky9715]

Thanks for the review Mike. I have a Springfield XDmod2 & bought the Olite Pl Mini-1 but had to do some minor modifications to the mount to fit. I like the fact that the new 2 is shorter ( and a little taller) and has an adjustable mount as well as more lumens. Your holding the two lights together is great to compare. The Mini-2 will work for me even better , not to mention brighter light and more desirable color tone. Get well buddy ! J K

[@Texarican1]

Just saw your product line. You do have the holster. Will buy that one. Thanks

[@mblake0420]

I finally have a light for my XD subcompact, love it, I'm glad they did it

[@theonethatdoes2551]

How did you get yours to fit

[@mblake0420]

@@theonethatdoes2551 what do you mean? There is a rail piece in the box you can swap out for picitinny rail. Also the mount slides foward and backwards. It fits, not sure why you are having g problems unless you light is a different model

[@matta3712]

Good video as always. Just ordered one for my Sig p365

[@mj1653]

I would be interested in a holster with the mini. Especially for a G19 with RMR.

[@rodwspoon304]

Great review bro. I have both PL mini’s and like them both but, the 2 is my favorite for its modularity

[@atomicsmith]

Bought one at launch. Love the build quality and the beam. Wondering if you could use the QD lever bulge to lock the guns in to the holster and then provide a long open area to along some adjustment of the light.

[@rencel3664]

Do you have any plans of making a holster for the sig p320 x compact with the pl mini 2? Awesome vids by the way!

[@michaelsweet3558]

I would definitely order a holster for my HK vp9sk with the Pl mini 2. And I would get one for the 3.6 M&P 2.0 compact .

[@pat4145]

i have both love em pl mini 2 love the adjuster !!

[@full_metal2452]

Great looking hat. I got one just like it 😉👍

[@nriyo3]

Mike, That was a great video. Sorry to see you sick, get well and man that finger is tore up. I did not run into you at SHOT and I hope to at some point. Cheers.

[@BruceDaughtry]

Love the new Olight Mini-2 ... bought 2 of them.

[@RevDeaconMichael]

Super interested in separate iwb pistol/mag holster for the PL-mini. You’re the only one that even offers holsters for this weapon light right now. 🙌🏼

[@WayfaringWaz]

Just picked one of these lights up and I hope one day you offer other gun models to have the pl mini 2 holster options. Fingers crossed it happens.

[@ridnpowder20]

Would have loved to see the upgraded led from the mini-2 in the mini-1 without the new mount. For me the biggest miss on the pl mini series is qd mount. Why don't they offer a screw mechanism to delete the QD lever on the mini-1?

[@thedefinitive6296]

I got this light because I want my next carry gun to be a M&P 2.0 3.6 and this is only 1 of 2 or 3 lights out there that will fit it. I definitely prefer the the controls on the PL-Minis to the Streamlight TLR-7 so it made this decision really easy for me. It's nice knowing I can make this light fit pretty much any handgun but mine is only going to live on subcompacts like this and my eventually P80 G26 build. There is a part of me that wishes they had just made a solid light with no adjustment system that would fit subcompacts, but they wanted to make something versatile that would fit just about anything and I get that. Seems to work just fine and I don't think it's going to end up being a problem for this light.

[@doctorruss684]

Brilliant invention sir , keep it up

[@zombierider85motovlogs36]

I run a open backed fobus em19 paddle holster which allows me to run the light in any position and charge it in the holster.

[@Texarican1]

Thank you for the video. Love the holster for the P365. Thinking of buying it but torn between that one and the CZ p10C. Would you have a holster for the CZ

[@mr.h8660]

The PL-Mini Valkyrie 2 has been an excellent lighting solution for my Steyr S40-A1. Only 2 lights fit, the other being the Sig Foxtrot1, also 600 lumens but bigger front profile.

[@ShinobiHOG]

I am totally with you because I am in the market right now for a Tacoma(next month or so) and I'm really into shooting as a hobby. I've taken classes in long range precision but I also everyday carry. Eventually I'd like to take more advanced classes in the 3 shooting disciplines(pistol, carbine, precision). I'm even learning to code on the side because I want to get into the industry for a career jump. As far as mindset and lifestyle I'm fully on the same page with you, dude.......

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Sounds like you're living the good life!

[@coppertom1967]

Just ordered the Olight PL-Mini Valkyrie 2 For my M&P 2.0 Compact. Holster anytime soon?

[@ed7119er]

Great video!!!

[@anthonyreddy2834]

Great video Mike, I need that pl2 for my HK vp30sk, I've been trying multiple lights I own, inforce, both models and they look weird or don't line up right, the only other option was viridian, which I can't bring myself to buy, just don't care for the price versus the lumen output, so I think that olight hit the nail with the hammer on this one!!!

[@Casey_7140]

Glad you're getting settled into the new place. Completely unrelated to the video but a while back you had talked about doing a gathering/get together. Is that still something you planning on doing?

[@damcintyre81]

Not ONLY is the PL Mini 2 great for all types and sizes of pistols with a rail, it also works surprisingly well on rifles, SBR's, SMG's, and shotguns. Just about anything that has/can have a 1913 or Glock picatinny rail attached; will work with the fine tune adjustability that the PL Mini 2 offers. This even works on my PSC crossbow pistol! P. S. Thanks Mike! For powering through Even though you weren't feeling well.

[@glock19gen3]

Much brighter! Did you cover run time v each, perhaps I missed it. Not sure that matters, but it could.

[@joethompson4805]

After this I’m glad I already ordered a holster for the PL Mini 1 instead of waiting for the 2.

[@laleevang4003]

I have the Olight on my 45c m&p. Haven’t had any luck finding a holster for it yet.

[@WLDONES88]

Thanks for the comparison. I’m a Glock owner I am currently in the market for a new weapon light. I like what Olight has to offer, I do not currently own any. I wanted something for my G21sf but now after doing some research I think I am going move my Inforce APL Gen-3 from my G23 to my 21sf. After this video I am considering the original PL MINI Valkyrie for the mid size frame. These weapons are currently used for home defense. I like the flush look when it comes to weapon lights. But I still feel crossed because the light beam that the PL mini 2 throws seems more efficient! Decisions decisions...

[@marcusaurelius161]

Holster for the Sig P320 and the original PL Mini light. Preorder is a good idea.

[@sallutz]

Just ordered one for my glock 26, and going to install it on the “recover tactical” rail addon. Looking forward. I have a tlr-1 HL on my Glock 19, but now the g19 found its new home inside a Micro Roni Gen4, so I need to replace my bedside weapon with the g26 & olight pl mini. Hoping this setup works well for me.

[@ethanpenry9585]

2 years later how do you like that recover rail

[@vitodiamico910]

Mike, hopefully you'll make holsters for that light and the upcoming Sig P320 X Compact.

[@nahtay72]

Great review. I picked one up the day it dropped due to the sale and put it on my Glock 29 but im not sure I'll upgrade my edc light to it for my p320 c. I will probably stick with my pl mini 1. To answer one question you had on how holster makers might deal with it, one that I use frequently wanted a picture of the light on the gun so that makes sense based on what you were saying for rail position.

[@matthewbeaver5026]

Would you suggest the pro or the mini for use with a vp9 and occasional use with a g2s? Mini seems better for carry and I like the recharging. The pro seems better for home defense but kinda bulky for carry

[@Jason22Douce]

no brainer on the pre order thing, if ppl dont wanna pre order, they dont have to. Also I think its a win win for the modular portion of the light, where holsters are always made for one specific light length ( slammed home ) this just adds user options after holster choices are made.

[@sgtzitro1]

Dude. I love your videos. Living in NYC make the 2A hard to practice but I am hoping to move to a state like Colorado after I graduate with my Bachelors in May. And yes I plan on buying a holster after I move to a better state. Thanks for the content. I have learned so much.

[@Rob_Nasty]

Nigga... your funny... you think colorado is a free state? Youre delusional. Youre just going from a horrible anti 2a state to a anti 2a state. Lol

[@sgtzitro1]

[@rickyvillanueva5]

Hey Mike, I love the videos. I was interested in purchasing a light and an appendix holster from you. So I was curious can you make a holster that fits a sig p320c RX with the Pl mini 2? If the PL mini 2 fit that is. If so what would it cost and how long would it take?

[@chasesnoochieboochies408]

Great video ! It should be able to fit the hk vp9sk im guessing correct? Those holsters are nice great grinding man you want it you do it yourself 👍

[@caspergibson699]

Awhile ago you intimated you were going to work on holsters for Polymer 80 guns. Do you still plan on doing that? And will you make them for the PL Mini 1 and/or 2. I know you have a lot on your plate, especially with moving so I'm curious because I would definitely purchase one for the PL Mini 1. Also you do great vids. Even a jaded A-hole like me enjoy them, ha!

[@brandonthomas899]

When will you be making a holster for this?

[@alwong604]

You should make the holster's retention based on the Olights body ala PHLSTR Floodlight. Doesn't matter how the light is mounted on the gun. Sorry if someone else has already mentioned it.

[@jonzack3882]

[@islandson827]

I would definitely be down for an Associate V2 for M&P9c 1.0 w/ PLmini2. Pretty sure that would also fit my M&P9 2.0 3.6" w/ a PLmini2. Man that's a mouthful... (that's what she said.) And thanks for the code for the 556 patrons. Can't wait to get my hats.

[@copper-tc6un]

I bought 2 of the Olight PL-2RL BALDR light/ laser combos LAST year when they had their black Friday sale. Trouble is , nobody makes a kydex holster for it. The PL-2RL BALDR is an older version they were trying to deplete their inventory of, and larger vertically, in that the laser is bigger, and hangs lower under the light. The Valkyrie and PL Mini are more compact. So I'm stuck with padded nylon Uncle Mike soft holsters which are ok, but not ideal .

[@northstardefense9894]

Hey bro, great video. Idea on the holster for this... I have to look and maybe you already did it, but instead of making the charge hole just a circle, make it more like an oval or rectangle. That should allow for more adjustment options.

Great review, I absolutely love this light and it saved my life = but that's for a different story = but it fits my p80 Glock 26 sub compact perfectly, and also shoutout to polymer 80 for putting rails on a Glock 26 because I haven't seen one on a OEM Glock 26 but could be wrong, but ya the output on this light is definitely worth the difference imo, I'm seriously enjoying this Olight😉😎❤❤❤

For G29, the PL Mini 2 is perfectly sized. Happy with it and found a holster maker that builds for it. Yo what about the baldr mini, you making one for the G29 g30?

[@jeremywhite3672]

I'm not a holster maker but logic will prevail with any holster maker ... It'll be made to fit the light flush forward so any setting closer to trigger will still fit the holster ;)
