Review on OLIGHT Baton3: Ultra-Compact 1,200 Lumens Rechargeable EDC Flashlight In Christmas Green For Outdoor Adventures And Household Needs by Ickey Case

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not OLight’s best product

I personally think Olight gets far too much positive attention by YouTube influencers. I’ve never been wowed by any of their lights but for some reason I was drawn to this flashlight. Pay attention to the other critical reviews as they are spot on. The button is a rubber membrane that WILL fail. Likely a few days after the warranty expires. The clip is not at all secure. The charger is gimmicky and the battery proprietary. Who wants to carry a proprietary charging cable for their flashlight? The charging case that comes with the premium version helps but also adds bulk to an otherwise very pocketable flashlight and is expensive for what it is. The battery is also proprietary meaning you have one place to go for a replacement but at least they allow user replacement. It’s still a decent flashlight and one I will keep around the house. It makes a poor daily carry flashlight.

Pros
  • The Baton3 is incredibly versatile, with multiple light modes including strobe, high, medium, and low
Cons
  • May not be reliable for long-term use
