What owners report
Olight Warrior X Pro
- ✓62,500 candela — lights a deer-sized target at 50-80 yards with detail
- ✓Enough spill to be usable close in, unlike many pure throwers
- ✓Vibrating low-battery indicator
- ✓Distinctive crenellated bezel makes it easy to identify by feel and sight
- ✓Solidly built and genuinely rugged
- ✗Single tailcap switch — you change grip every time you change mode
- ✗Too large for pocket carry, with no genuinely low mode for close work
- ✗Bezel is Loctited shut, so the emitter can't be replaced
- ✗Proprietary 21700 cell, with spares around $28
- ✗No replacement bezel gaskets available, and the gasket glows visibly in the dark
Olight Baton Ultra
- ✓Over 1,600 lumens with a beam reviewers rate above the Baton 4 Pro's
- ✓Both MCC magnetic charging and a hidden USB-C port in the tailcap
