🔦Bigger is better...at least for this Olight Flashlight. 

the warrior mini is very very hard to beat imo.

Brown Warrior mini 2s is my edc, and it is everything I need, but you are right. They just have to fix a couple things. 1) Proprietary charging is the worst, This could be very easily fixed by putting a USB-C port right on the battery (This exists, but not for OLight's proprietary battery). When I would very rarely need to charge the light but not be somewhere my olight chargers are kept (Home/Car/Bag) it would be nice to have the option. 2)Lockout should not ever disable a full tailpress. I should be able to carry it locked and instantly yank it out and blind an aggressor or an animal without unlocking. Hard tailpress is also something that NEVER happens accidentally, so no loss. I would settle for it just not locking out the Hold to activate full tailpress, so even if you do manage to accidentally turn it on, it turns off when you are no longer pressing it. Everything else is just fine. Even having to use a rangerband to keep the clip on more securely...then I have a rangerband at all times, so not even a negative.

The Pro Max actually is available with three different emitter options: cold white, neutral white and warm white.

@@BrokenCurtain which is nice, but their emitter still isn't super high CRI. I can also get a similarly sized Convoy light which takes $6 batteries (as opposed to $24) for around $20 and pick any emitter I want basically. Olights are good lights, there are just so much better options

@@buckcherry2564 Since I have a large collection of Olights I have invested in many of their charging accessories (yes extra bucks for them!). I have the key ring charging base that accepts USB-C. It's with me all the time! Also the USB-C to magnetic charging connector on a small storage reel. I'll certainly agree that USB-C is the more universal way to go for flashlight charging. 👍🔦👍

I 100% agree with this statement.

I can't stand tailswitch lights for some reason

I think a zip pocket toolroll bridges the gap nicely. I've had that recommend to me often. They fit alot.. keep things organized..and best of all is that they are fast to load back up.

Yep! The WM2 is too close to perfect to buy anything new at the moment in my opinion. A little shorter and narrower head would make it more comfortable it pocket. I managed to get a black clip for mine which makes it even better 😋

I'm still rocking the OG warrior mini in titanium. I keep it locked when carrying because there is no sensor. Won't upgrade until they release a new one in Ti. I absolutely hate the Ti lights olight is releasing with snow flakes on it, looks like it came from the dollar bin at the arts and craft store.

yep, very very floody.

Both 🙋‍♂️

It’s a Tail of Knives

length yes..diamater no..this is much narrower.

Proprietary, thats the other reason they could get it that thin.

@@maxlvledc Oh well, with supply chain issues and likely war brewing, that means it will eventually become a paperweight. I have strong Love/Hate for Olight.

Neither...get a thrower...lots of good ones out there. convoy makes a low cost option. Thrunite makes a few good ones too, can't go wrong with olight warrior x turbo.

Fenix has a good thrower, the HT18. If you can find one, it won't break the bank and it isn't big and bulky. 1500 lumens, 214k candela!

too few people actually care about it, otherwise I would.

@@maxlvledc What? That's like buying a car without knowing how it performs. Whatever....lol Cheers

They ask me if I want to renew something for next sale..and send me it early

I have the baton 3 pro and absolutely love it. Seen that they were coming out with the Max version and am wanting to get my hands on one

I love my V3 but I hate the greenish tint! Absolutely phenomenal flash light (for me) but that is a definite drawback

hah, good point for those it might concern. I didnt think about that, ive never tried messing with my automatic watches using a magnet, granted they would be on the opposite wrist of my carry side. I do like having a magnetic flashlight on me though. Ive tied a line to mine and used it to grab metal things from the river when out fishing, or screws from behind the toolbench. Glad I swapped away from sensitive/delicate watches for sure!

Surefire is overpriced and no more reliable or bright than Fenix or Olight..need I say more? $224 for the Ultra and it uses 123 batteries ✌️ it isn't even rated waterproof or resistant If this light supports rechargeable type CR123 batteries, that helps a little but 1K lumens for this price is not practical for 99% of us

I agree. I did get mine after the recall, so I didn't deal with the issues, however they should have swapped at least the returned lights for this sensor.

Why...?

@@nunyabizness3882 a small flashlight means a small battery which means a short runtime. I like the compactness of small flashlights and I do have them in some small survival kits but they have a very short runtime. Personally I think that having low lumens with a long runtime is more beneficial than having turbo for a short period of time. In other words I put the runtime as most important. A big flashlight delivers a big runtime.

Absolutely

800 for over 1 hour is super good

@@maxlvledc I remember when I got issued a surefire in the marines back in 2011, I thought 300 lumens was like the surface of the sun!

@@maxlvledc that's pretty damn good 😂

Try the TN12 by Thrunite..it's LIT, pun intended.

@@maxlvledc thanks, man. I'll take a look at it.

@@maxlvledc I should have added, I've had the Warrior Mini 2 for some time now and I'm very happy with it. I just thought I'd try the Max also and now see it was not right for me. I'll stick with the Mini 2.

to me it sounds like your the ignorant one, olight is top line. and the proprietary batteries are so that people don't hurt themselves when they drop in low quality cells that explode.... something you olight haters like to talk about.
