I think Olight really knocked it out of the park with this new Arkfeld. Can’t wait to pick one up.
I’ve had nothing but good experience with Olight. The Arkfeld series is my EDC light and I absolutely love it.
Mordin you’re alive! Cool to see a Mass Effect respecter here 🫡
@@TXetc Had to comment on this video. Someone else might have gotten it wrong.
I have the Arkfeld Pro and I can't say enough good things about it. Olight simply went and designed way outside the box and it shows. What has really impressed me that I wasn't expecting was the battery life. It simply went on and on without the need for recharging until last night. Recharged in 2 1/2 hrs. from red light on battery life indicator. I use the light almost everyday and it is my EDC. I use the lumens as best suited for the lighting task at hand. I didn't baby it as I wanted to see how it would perform. I could go on and on. From the 4 different lumen settings to the three different light choices to the ergonomic design and the exceptional battery life you cannot go wrong. Olight is setting the standard.
Just picked one up… I own SureFire…more than I need, pocket and round … this Arkfeld ROCKS!
Their packaging, info manual, and charging system beats anything I’ve seen out there. I’d highly recommend!
Great vid thx!
Just got mine today. Very cool product. The flat design is very comfortable. No excuses for not carrying an EDC light everyday.
Huge thanks Sootch! I watch you regularly and am impressed by all that you do to help those of us early on our prepping journey to move forward. I just found that Ebay has a deal with some sellers until 11/11, which gives $24 off of a purchase of the Arcfeld Ultra. I found a seller, offered $90 which they accepted, and with the discount just bought an Ultra for $78 , tax and shipping included.
The flat design looks great for pocket carry without the bulk.
It is
As tjp148 said, it is.
I also find it more comfortable to hold.
I’ve been carrying the original Arkfeld daily since it came out. This seems to fix everything. Can’t wait to get one!
I just got mine. This is a great review and I have to make a review with it for Metal Detecting. I can't wait open it and take it out tonight for a run with the detector. The turtles nesting here are going to be happy with the low light settings on this.
If you put it in lock and press the button 12 times then on the 12th hold it until it flashes, it will change to 2 clicks turbo like all .other olights. 3 clicks for strobe.
Bro I randomly clicked this video and seen this comment and thank you! My pro was setup to where turbo was 3 clicks and strobe was 2 I hated it now I changed it to normal
my man!!! thank yo!
I have one of these in OD green. Awesome light.
Olight makes great stuff
Got this in my cart now! Really love my other arkfeld and have been wanting another.
Have this and the seeker 4 pro in mine lol hard to pass for 169 for both
I’m loving the NW version of this light.
Definitely grabbing this one I've been waiting !
Just received my ultra yesterday as my lens on the pro melted from being on in my pocket good excuse to buy the latest and greatest, but I got a bundle deal from Amazon. That was the ultra along with a pro so I now have 4 0light arcfeld flashlights. The three flashlights in this video are the exact ones that I have. I used the UV light to figure out if my hunting clothes had UV glow that deer will see easier in low light.
Thank you for sharing this product with us ❤
I understand being sponsored etc, and I love your videos...but I support Surefire and Streamlight rather than Chinese companies. The Wedge XT is the best EDC light I have ever carried.
I get it, but I do prefer Olight pistol lights for quick detachment and how they actuate, which I just personally prefer. My Olights have been completely reliable, whereas, for example, Nightstick flashlights are made in Texas but are pretty uniformly terrible (and I say this from personal experience within a large sample size). My Olight Warrior X Pro has been great and I carried that in place of 3 different ones they cycled us through, but did retire it to the nightstand once we went to the Streamlight Strion LED HL, which is more compact, lighter, durable and close enough to as good as the Warrior X Pro. The Strion is more of a hassle to charge, but that's less of a thing than it used to be for me. As small EDC flashlights go, I have had a Streamlight Microstream USB for a good long while and don't plan on changing. I'm certainly happy enough with Streamlight to never pay the premium for a Surefire, just don't see the need.
My various stream lights were all made in china
@@ericmcfarlin4272 Yeah, hard to avoid these days...but I said Chinese company. Olight is a straight up Chinese entity...Streamlight and Surefire are both American companies that do have manufacturing onshore for their higher end stuff.
@@ericmcfarlin4272 Being made in China or having Chinese components is different than being owned by the Chinese.
Everything is made in China though so your virtue signaling falls short 😂😂🤡🤦♂️
I adore my Arkfeld Pro UV - the Ultra is awesome and I bought this as a gift for a young conservationist - shouild last her lifetime if the battery lasts that long.
Hate I missed out on the Scotch version - very cool looking! Thanks as always for the review!
*sootch00* Have my Olight sootch edition & absolutely love it, thank-you sir for taking the time to show us these amazing lights. GOD Bless brother.
Thanks Kevin! I appreciate it my friend~
God bless you and yours!
Right on Kevin. I bought one as well. I also bought the sootch edition fixed blade knife. I love them both
@@mikeyID Missed out on the knife, maybe next time. Peace & Grace.
Hello @sootch00! I received an Olight for Christmas (after sending the link you shared with my mother-in-law)....BEST lights ever made! She went to get me this one, but they were out, and she decided to get me the 2600lm Warrior X 4 USB-C and MCC Rechargeable Tactical Flashlight With Holster. LOVE IT, and will for sure be getting more Olights going forward! Appreciate the recommendations/reviews!!
Happy 2025 my friend!
Awesome little light definitely need one 👍
Pugs for life
They are the best!
Thanks Sootch.
God Bless.
I love my special Sootch Edition Arkfeld !
Where’d you get it? Id like to buy myself an Xmas present lol
@MortemTyrannis look at the next post down underneath this, and sootch00 has a link to it. However, it was a limited edition and I think all of his special ones with his name and a design on it etcetera have sold out. But you'll still be able to get the flashlight itself and probably with his discount.
Love mine feels great
like the out takes at the end
Picked one up in navy blue, very stoked to get it in!
Same here I got the “bad” batch blues couldn’t beat that sale for $60
I just got the regular ultra in a trade. Can't wait for it to arrive! I've heard nothing but really good things. And yea that 50% off the navy blue one is a great deal. Most will be able to deal with the finish issues..esp for that price!
Got one to idc about the ano issues i used a 10 coupon paid 53
Great video @sootch00! 10:38 I love the Arkfeld UV mode. I have 550 paracord with reflective orange string and it makes that really glow in the dark. I put it on my Keys, zippers of my tent or go bag and it really makes them pop. Try it out
I’m still rocking my Streamlight Wedge. I’ve been looking at these Arkfelds for awhile now, so hopefully with the sale the price is right.
I bought a few Arkfeld pro’s big fan
They didn't announce it anywhere I've seen but I emailed Olight directly to clarify. The Arkfeld Ultra has a glass lens.
I've had this for 2 weeks and didn't know about the turbo or strobe setting 🤯
Run times at all illumination levels is essential info before making a purchase decision
You know it’s crazy how much hate olight seems to get. I think I’ll be buying one of these for work, this was a great review. I’ve been using their lights for probably around 6-8 years but I haven’t bought too many because I’ve had no reason to, they hold up very well. My only issue with some of their lights is the magnetic charger on the back that is also the button to turn them on. I’m a heavy equipment mechanic and when grinding and working around metal shavings if you get too many shavings on the magnet, it pulls them in and the rear button will quit working. I’ve since solved this problem by putting a soft rubber cap on the back while at work.
These lights preform just as well or better than other “high end lights” and they don’t come in at near the price as some of them. And in my line of work out in the field in rain or snow, hot or cold, oil, and simply just beating the crap out of them by the nature of my job I give these guys a big thumbs up
That magnet is a super cool addition
Couldn't find the sootch edition. Went went this one (ultra) in lieu of. I really like it, the metal olight used is quite nice. The look and feel of it, I'm very pleased
Thats a really nice flashlight. Cool video. Not the least best part being it wont roll away from you. :)
Best charger ever
love my arkfeld pro, pairs great with my Leatherman arc for my edc
If they stop with their proprietary chargers I’ll buy one. Until then it’s a streamlight wedge XT
I'll keep my pro 🤘
definitely going to try and not submerge it I was worried when I saw it pouring water after your puled it out of the water. I worry about anything with a slide switch like that as is would have tight tolerances and an o ring in to prevent water but I worry about longevity of the water resistance over time of moving the slide. Otherwise love all their other products I have been using their baton series since ive been in the field and been loving it so well see if this becomes my favorite among the ones I have.
I’ve got one that’s better than the Olight Ultra. I have the Olight Sootch Limited Edition 💯
Awesome! Thanks Mikey! 👍👍
1 minute since this dropped. 8 comments. All from ASSBOTS.
Not mine. I think I'm the first real person to comment.l
I removed them... I hate that! lol!
@@sootch00 Brother, I hunt them. And your channel is one of their highest priorities. Props, I guess, that you've arrived to the point that your viewers are a priority target!
No way well I shouldn't be surprised well done good sir👍🙏
Thank You sir👍🇺🇸
Hey sootch. Been watching your vids for a long time. Love the channel
I love it on the ball of my cap
UV light also good for charging glow in the dark materials quicker than a normal light
I ise Uv light to Light up the fishing lures vith uv paint,very useful
Looks great
of course the light you are shillin for is the ultimate. So i'm sure you would confirm.
Baton Turbo now that's worth upgrade
Great Light, I have the Pro..👽👍
Which one throws the longer beam, pro or ultra? Or are they the same in that regard?
I like it, but I prefer my sootch olight pro! Titanium.. and the milling is amazing.
‼️TOO EXPENSIVE FOR EDC‼️
I like the Arkfeld but it needs a momentary for the laser and flashlight.
I bought mine waiting for it hope it’s good nightcore has there version of a flashlight just like this.
Hey sootch 👋. I have had the arkfeld with the blue light option and it’s been a good flashlight . I hardly use the high power option as high is enough for my purposes . There’s the one with the laser pointer too but of no use to me . Also , the baton 3 with the case is a good one . Just my opinion .
Thanks for the review. Does the built in battery have a lifetime warranty?
I bought this same light and my grandma asked to use it to find her teeth one night in a power outage. I let her use it and she freaking fell down the stairs and got all kinds of freaked up. I mean wtf??? She can’t even just walk down some stairs with out just floppin down em?? Idk why she wanted to just fall down the stairs, probably for attention.
This killed me bro thank you
@ no probz big G
Grandmas and pregnant ladies, the two people asked not to topple over, most likely to topple over.
Yep, old ladies are the worst; always extremely selfish like that and always looking for attention….. “Ohhh, my teeth fell out. Ohhh, I fell down some stairs and I broke my hip. Ohhh, the male nurse touches me at night. Ohhh, my husband died 3 years ago and I am so lonely. Ohhh, my daughter in law made me change my will and now she brings me water that tastes funny and there’s always a lot of blood when I use the toilet afterwards…… “
Boo Hoo!!!!! They really need to quit it with the unnecessary drama and attention seeking! If something serious actually happened at some point, no one would listen to them because they would believe that grandma is just up to her old tricks again. It’s a shame that they are allowed to be a burden on society and use the same resources that good people require. I guess that’s what happens when old people get spoiled and become used to the royal treatment.
Laser needs to be stronger, a replaceable battery would be nice but with the shape i can understand why its not.
You can change it back to double click for turbo.
How?
I hate to be "that guy" in the comments, but here's a PSA, please don't play with your dog with a laser pointer, it can cause behavior issues. It happened with my dog before someone told me, so do with this info what you will, heck do your own research, don't take my word for it. Just saying. Oh BTW I have the arkfeld pro... best light ever
I love my Olights but I hate their pocket clips. I've bought multiple clips for older models because I keep bending them and I finally switched to a Nitecore light because I just bent the clip on my Arkfeld UV and they're non replaceable. I'd rather have a beefier clip than the hat clip function. This light looks really cool though.
This one have a much more beefer clip than the Arkfeld PRO, we will see if people can still bend it lol
@@SEBTECHDIY Well that's good to hear.
Time to get yours. I just bought it despite of your experience. Its marvellous thing and they made a perfect product from work to edc versatility. Even in presentation, laser is an awesome option to get attention from the audience
@@Jimanderson124 I actually did buy it after l found out that they put a beefier clip on it. I've had it for about 2 weeks now. I don't think I'll be bending this one on my seat belt but we'll see. So far, so good.
@@logic63 its awesome love the beefy clip they added it was so strong it actually clinched my hats brim. Awesome feature
Hard not to like anything Olight puts out. Gonna have to grab this for myself. Thanks.
I really wish I could program the turbo mode to be double click like my original Arkfeld. or Arkfeld pro. I’m gonna want to use the strobe a fraction as often as the turbo mode
You can put it in lockout mode click button 12 times and on the 12th click hold it until the light flashes unlock it again and turbo is double click
@@robkukla2054 thank you so much for commenting this! Game changer I already bought the night core edc 29 cause this bothered me so much
@@jeffrellek2792 glad I could help I had the same issue until I contacted Olight and they told me how to do it instantly it felt like a new light
Idk I don’t think olight is listening too well…at least not to me lol. I want a version of this light that is as small as possible, doesn’t need to be insanely bright, no stupid uv, only green laser and white light, and under $60. I currently use Milwaukee’s edc light daily as a commercial hvac tech. It’s a great light. Only $50, battery lasts forever, rechargeable, I use it constantly, but I’d really like to have a laser. I have no use for UV though and I’m not paying over $60 for something that could get accidentally dropped down a duct or a wall where it can’t be retrieved.
Huh I really like that
I lost my Olight Arkfeld a couple days ago setting up my tree stand. I purposely carry orange wallet, key holder, and light so they are easier to find. Unfortunately it didn’t help when I lost my Arkfeld in the woods. The trial is pretty wet and I think that’s why I haven’t been able to find it. Guess I’ll have to get the Pro, if I lost the Ultra, I’d be more sick than I am now having just lost my standard Arkfeld.
If somehow you can recover your arkfeld serial number printed ON the light, write to olight support and maybe they'll send a replacement unit. Even without the serial number try reaching out.
I own one of the heavy copper Arkfeld Flashlight/Laser as my daily carry for over a year now, fantastic light. I recommend it to folks all the time, the laser is extremely handy for me as I do custom home construction.
I wish they kept the original selector which had raised bumps on the left and right. When I use the light in my left hand I use the right noth and while in the right hand I use the left.. with notch is in the middle it doesnt feel like its in a natural position
There has not been “a lot of upgrades since the original pro”. There has been a material change, a small textured grip change and different engraving. Incremental change and nothing more.
Glass lens too. I think that's a great upgrade!
Wurkkos with same feature just bought for $37 compare to $99 olight
Are you annoyed this version didn't get the special edition sootch engraving?
What do you think compare to nitecore edc 23?
Can you see the beam of the green laser in the night sky? Like if you wanted to point out a constellation?
Make sure you keep your cat away from Ohio
Just wish it was double click to turbo not strobe. So used to double clicking. Also, I have so many damn olight charging cables I take 10 minutes to find the right one lol.wish they were usb c only
Put your flashlight in lockout mode, then click the button 12 times and on the 12th time hold it until your light flashes. Unlock your flash light again and turbo is double click now
FYI. Your discount code isn’t being accepted.
Thanks for a good video explaining light features.
Jesus bless.
Another nice vídeo Sootch, this is amazing, in my opinion you have the best TH-cam channel about guns, i hope that you are very well prepared, because i think that the SHTF is right now.
Thanks Joao! I wish you the best my friend.
Needing a special charging cord is a hard no for me. USBC only!
I hop the made arkflex ultra that hase the same Features as arkfeld ultra With warm white light
Since it's probably gonna be the only color available, they will need to make differents option to sell us a second one. They talked about a WHITE/RED light version instead of an UV/LASER , it might be the best model to put a NW on it.
Come on Sir; read the manual for the light. You can easily reset the button presses to match your other Arkfeld. Notably, back to double press for turbo then strobe becomes an easy triple press. Muscle memory matters, why waste it?
Who the hell reads manuals haha
@@Seedavis397 Very few I know, but sheesh… he’s the sponsor and just made a literal information and operation video!!!! Ouch.
Strobe should be triple click and Max should be double.
So other than the aesthetics what's different? Just 200 lumens difference? If that's all then I'll just stick with my HD 01
More durable aluminum body, more lumens and a glass lens
After a few early deaths of S1R2 not so much of an Olight fan any more.
Pug life!!!
My biggest qualm is no replaceable battery and no USB-C Charging. Have to always find that cable when I need it. But my Arkfeld is a great light that I do carry often.
Me 2. If it had usb c on it i would get it
I have to agree with you. no replaceable battery. That is the only thing that is keeping me away from getting one.
@@frankievassallo552 yeah! I mean, even if the battery wasn’t replaceable, make it USB of some sort so I can charge with whatever.
Given that the LiPo battery replacement is covered under their limited lifetime warranty, I don't think that's an issue to worry over.
@peterfable mainly USB-c charging
How do you not see the problem with being compensated to do the review and then you give it nothing but glowing positive love?
And What I mean, Is you are being paid, Which you clearly state, Thank you for that. But you are acting like it is a review. It isn't. Its a paid for ad. I ended my contract with Olight for the very reason. They wanted to control the narrative of my reviews. If they are still doing so, I feel it is wrong to promote them
I've been reviewing Olights for 12 years. If you want another opinion, check out Nutnfancy. He loves Olight.
I'd call it more of a Demo than anything else. Give him a break, it doesn't always have to be a torture test.
I guess the question is do you trust that Sootch would lie to you? If so, no reason to watch his channel at all. But I have not found his reviews to be based on lies
I like the reviews. No one is forcing you to buy or watch
OP has a point, but I think if olight put out a trash product, scootch would say so. I've had good luck so far with my olight products.
Is that an anodized finish? I thought they said it was the natural color after it oxidized.
it is the natural color, not anodized
Natural color and bead blasted I believe they said
Right angle light...telescoping handle
Maybe by the 10th version they will make it usb c. I like the arcfield design but will not buy anything that uses proprietary charging systems.
arent green lasers not like super dangerous to eyes?
How comes you have never reviewed a hk p2000?
Wish they would have made it with replaceable battery
Why, when it comes with a lifetime warranty that covers the LiPo battery?
Magnetic charging is a no go, I've had several phones fry from Magnetic charging and it's irritating to have to remember the charger vs just a USB c port
yeah I thought it was kinda cool at first but it's one more thing I have to have when I'm scaling back. Found I'm much happier when I have less stuff. My Olight Warrior X Pro has magnetic charging, but the Olight pistol lights I have just take batteries, and my EDC light is a Microstream USB. Only reason I would replace it for EDC is if they would finally get around to making a USB-C version, which last time I checked they still didn't.
can this one do light and laser at the same time like the pro?
Yes. Double click while using the laser
