For simplicity I prefer the larger Baton 3 Pro (formerly S2R Baton 2), which has such fantastic run times you rarely have to recharge it. I also like the user interface on Olights, which I don't have to think about to remember how to get to all the modes. I also like being a customer with Olight because they constantly have promotions going on where I wind up with some free keychain lights.
Wuben C3 is my EDC, I'm a fire fighter and have put it through a lot and it has never let me down. My favorite flash light and insanely bright for only $30.

I got the x3 owl in the mail right now. It's going to replace my chest mounted sling bag light. I specifically got it for the red light. Red is a lot less harsh on human eyes and I was at an event in the dark where I felt like I was flashbanging people with a bright ass white LED. I'll probably attend an event like that again, so the more NV friendly option is a big selling point.
My only gripe when I bought it was while it's nice it's water resistant, I would have liked a USB-C port for charging. Having to put it in a special case or slowly charge on a wireless charger is somewhat annoying.
Idk I wouldn't carry this for backpacking or whatever, but for my urban EDC where I live, this is pretty good.
I like the Streamlight protac 90x. Its nice cuz u can set it down and have it shine straight up if ur stuck working in drop ceilings or areas with low light and overhead work. I also like the different intensity settings and the fact it can take button top 18650's (not advertised to but it does work)
I got the Baton 3 !!!! It just fits me better for Heavy Duty work !!!! I break lights and tools weekly... Baton is a solid little beast ... wuben just broke first the clip then the head got dirt in the swivel before it broke
Wuben seems pretty great, other than the form factor. The functionality seems to be in place, but it's just bulky, IMO.
No, I would pocket carry the olight (especially with the better clip) vs. the Wuben, but I like the Wuben for inside use. The versatility of the power bank feature and the uniquieness of the Wuben's charging cable make it a good home or HQ choice, whereas, the Olight is better for mobile/recon duty.
I just want to say you might be the best reviewer I’ve watched- awesome job!
You said the Wuben's clip isn't the best, so I'm wondering if one, can attach it EASILY to one's clothes, or a pack strap/molle attachment? If not, it's use for walking, hiking, i.e. mobile use is severely limited.
I do feel like a lot of people in the edc world like to keep the boxes, especially if they are into trading/selling/second hand market for things.
Good info. Olight now has a lifetime warranty. I will be interested to see what kind of warranty the other flashlight has. Also, what is the customer service like.
I have a Baton 3... It's already looking pretty hagard. Power button is pretty much wrecked, I'm on my second pocket clip and it's already breaking, and the battery life is barely enough to get me through a day. Currently eyeballing a Wuben X3 or a Olight Warrior Nano. The warrior nano has that second tail switch and pretty much double the battery capacity. My main worry is I feel I'm already limited by the throw distance of the baton 3 yet the warrior nano has even less throw...
I have the olight/case. The Wuben looks better for inside use vs. outside/mobile use.
Have the molded case/clip for the olight case and light. Also picked up a 3d printed diffuser. Olight has come a long way since I stumbled across them many years ago
I just want to comment on the Wuben pocket clip. I have zero problems with the clip. I use it both clipped to my pocket (one shirts and jackets) as a area light and clipped to ball cap as a directional light. For me its perfectly designed with that maybe 1/4 inch space at the end of the turned up part of the clip to easily slip on anything. Honestly I don't get where people are having problems with the clip.
Things have changed since this video. Both are great lights but Olight has upped the ante. I like the W3 and might get it if I did not already have a plethora of flashlights. With so many lights I don't really need another one with a built-in battery.The wireless feature is cool. It is not as waterproof with a IP65 rating, whereas the Olight is IPX8. My current similar choice would be to get the Baton 4 Premium paired with the right angle NW Perun Mini 2. Its charging case will now act as a powerbank and it will fit the NW Perun Mini 2. Yeah, 2 lights, but they are lightweight and one will always be charged or the batteries could be swapped. Plus the lights can run from the charging case with the lid open. No diffuser lid but that might be because on turbo or high it would be bad to have the lid closed. The only con to my setup is that the NW Perun Mini 2 does give you the red light feature, a really bright one and flashing for emergencies, say by the side of the road, but it does not have a low level red. So an almost perfect pair of lights. The competition is getting us some great lights.
The best EDC Flash Light is! Aurora A28
Hey Marine! I think you would know about Boruit V10, V15, V20 and more. I can get a V20 for 20 dollars or 2 for one for 35, or something. I think you could have a taste for it.
The pocket clip is so it can attach to the bill of a baseball cap. Headlamp or reading light.
I’ve been looking for a good flashlight for my edc kit and with your 20% off code I found it. Good looking out.
I have been looking at the baton 3 for a couple of years now to upgrade from my I3T E0S.
Thank you for spotting such an interesting product. Wuben X3 is really packed with features, but I dont think that they worth to switch from Baton3, if you already have one. Lets see what baton4 and x4 would be able to offer.
All 3 x3 I ordered has charging issues. Stuck at 90% for hours.
@@avgrim7729 I have zero problems with the production model. I have to ask, do you have a pro production model, maybe a Kickstarter model?
I have both of these lights. I was a Kickstarter backer for the Wuben and to be honest I had nothing but trouble with the light. The light itself works great, the case on the other hand is a bust. the first case I got would not charge the light and it was a nightmare to get Wuben to finally replace it. The new case will now charge the light but only if the light is off or at most running at 1 lumen. Anything else and the light draws to much power and the case will stop charging the flashlight. The Olight baton 3 is a better flashlight and case hands down. It’s built better all around and the case charges the flashlight 100% of the time. If you put the flashlight into the case and it’s on it will stay on until the lid is closed then it will turn itself off to protect the light and case from the light melting it. The case for the Olight will also charge the light almost 4 times and is more pocket or pack friendly. The light beam the Olight puts out is better and overall a better light. The clip lets you pocket carry it and like I use it place it on a brim of a hat and use it as a headlamp. Overall the Wuben was my first and most likely last light I get from them. The other part is you can replace the battery on the Olight but need to use their battery you can get from them. I ended up giving it to my son as he liked it and I kept the Olight and since have bought more of the Olights other models. In general they are a better company and make great lights.
Hey man, we have to admit that X3 has received a great response from the market, but due to the complexity of the production process and some internal reasons, WUBEN suffered a very hard time before ago, and the result was that it didn't do a very good job of customer service; any business needs time to grow, and WUBEN has been focusing on innovating and breaking through for almost a year, and the X-series is a good illustration of this; thank you for your support of WUBEN! And please forgive us! Please stay with time to witness WUBEN's growth and expansion!
I've had nothing but positives with the X3, but I have the retail version
Picked up the Baton 4 - the size of it and the durability (metal button) were the reasons. The trinkets that the Wuben offers doesnt really fit with what i need.
for me i have two things that are a must for a main flashlight thats can be used like a head lamp and has eather a red or uv light function so like the olight perun mini 2 or the fenix hm50r have become my most carried the magnet on the olight is great but i just epoxied a magnet to the bottom of the fenix added some glow powder for shit and giggles so not much a differences
Just ordered Wuben X3 with your discount code.
Great review. Couple issues I see. The Wuban form factor seems useless and less functional. You mention this and functionality trumps all with a torch. On the charging case...neat, but what's the point. Unless you are carrying around the case with the light, you're going to bring the light back to the case which means the case may as well be plugged in. The only use case I can see for this is traveling away from power for a period of time. The obvious tradeoff being the added weight and thing you are carrying. I personally would rather carry 2 than 1 with a case (2 is 1, 1 is none).
Wuben, more bang for your buck. The functionality of it with it's flex head and magnetic base was a seller to me, just the fact that it has more is even better.
Speaking of which is the amazon link an affiliate link? Because if it is I'd rather use Amazon.
I can dig it. I just don't like how Olight constantly puts out newer models and neglects the previous models so quickly
The deal killer for me personally with these candy bar-shaped flashlights is they don't have replaceable batteries. So they end up being high-end disposables. The X3 definitely has more functionality though.
You can replace the battery in the olights. You can’t with the Wuben
@@alexulmer7049 Where are you finding batteries for them? I went to Olights web store, and they list nothing for batteries that I could find. Every description I've read identifies it as "a built-in battery".
Like the baton very much and it has seen a lot of pocket time but I have to be honest and say that the awl is better in so many ways...
Why compare to baton 3 and not baton 4 premium
These are both really cool, I hate how whenever I get a flashlight I like some new thing comes out that I want to drop money on
I'm gonna always choose olight because I'm deep in their ecosystem!
I own a red Premium Baton 3 and a simple red one, wich i gave to my brother, with a spare batterie. I have 3 spares too. I dont use it at all, its too small.
I kinda just want the wuben cord because its a cool cord.
Is it just me or is the hat clip on the olight backwards.
I'll drop a bill for the lanyard and view the flashlight as a free gift
Looks like Wuben is 20% off right now too on Amazon
Oh nice
What was your M.O.S.
I can absolutely get behind paying $109 for a flashlight with all those features. What I will never understand is spending $400-500+ on a flashlight…But hey, to each their own I guess 😅
I'd never spend that much on a flashlight, but if I had a job where I needed a serious high performance flashlight, I wouldn't mess around and I'd go straight for the best, such as Surefire, no matter the cost. And then you can take a tax deduction. But for EDC....no way. And I find I don't need the super high lumens at all in EDC. I use the Olight S2R Baton 2 (now called Baton 3 Pro) and never go into turbo mode. My most used modes are moonlight, low, and medium.
U had me at flashlight I got a problem
You look high AF. Me too 😊😅😂🤣👨🍳
lol. I don’t partake but feel free
I really like the Wuben X3… also agree with the clip. It’s pretty tight, but I think for this one it might be good if you want to clip it to a hat. I really like the screen… lots of cool new features on a reasonably priced light!
Olight is the iphone of lights they ve been releasing the same light since day one lol but they live in the past im sorry..
I would personally rather buy an affordably priced power bank with 50,000 mah off Amazon that I can use to charge any device rather than invest in a charging case with 3,000 mah that works for only one device.
If it is really 50,000. Ahh,Maybe for your 1,000,000 lumen lights too? 50,000 mah isn't exactly as portable.
Who wants to carry a brick in there pocket? I respectfully choose olight, small and slimer
I used to like Olight, but I can't stand the Olight community, toxic asf. That and shoddy construction.
I have both. And I no longer carry the Olight. The X3 is, imo, far superior. It's just so much more versatile.
olight. simple. smaller case. Thanks for the excellent information!
theres nothing special about dual fuel flashlights at all
