Thanks for catching that. Unfortunately I only had 72 hours to create 3 videos for this olight sale. Some edits might have gotten mixed up. The pieces are there though. Imagine putting together 3 highly detailed reviews in less than 3 days of receiving the products whilst having a very busy life outside of TH-cam. 🤦🏻♂️😂 I hope people will understand.
My Batons are my favorite flashlights and this new Turbo model looks very nice. However, instead of a 1,000 lumen mode that lasts 2-3 mins, I would prefer a 600-700 lumen mode that doesn't step down. They used to do that years ago & it worked well. I guess they're trying to bank on impressive lumen numbers, but it just doesn't last long enough.
Thanks for the details. I've been an O'fanboy ever since the original S2 bought from Battery Junction, b4 they sold direct. Gained "Black Diamond" status. The recent changes to their marketing kills my enthusiasm. I am still going to selectively buy a few new models that intrigue me, such as the sphere & Arkfeld Ultra, but not this - it's redundant for my collection. Got plenty of others such as the Javalot Mini which is far more useful IMHO. Everyone is welcome to their own choices. Cheers! 🤛👍
Same con as always; 100000000000000000lm for 1 minute… high lm doesn’t impress me nearly as much as longer run time! I’m also a big fan of the warrior series so I don’t need to cycle through to get to half/turbo, do you know if this head works on the Warrior nano or if we might see something to that effect in a later model nano? 😉
Looks a great addition to the product range although I’d be keen to see a comparison between the seeker 4 mini, baton 4 mini and maybe javelot mini? It feels like it should maybe be a warrior mini or javelot mini as it’s for range.. I do want one I just would like to see why it exists kinda thing :)
my only gripe about the belt clip is that its not fixed in terms of rotation, id prefer they had it stay in place like the other baton lights, i removed it for this reason as i was finding it difficult to orient the light in my hand when the clip was off center. GREAT LIGHT though, highly recommended.
I have this light. The button press is so sensitive, it’s turned on in my pocket numerous times today. Anyone else noticed this? I have it in lock out mode, it gets activated while in my pocket.
I have few olights already and the idea of having a thrower is tempting...but is it really that practical? I think warrior mini 2 has the absolute best balance between throw and flood.....I do however have a dark forrest road next to my house which I want to light up from time to time, so maybe this light is actually one to add.
With that throw and that much candelas, this head would be fitted for the Warrior series, wouldn’t it? A Warrior Nano Turbo with 60,000 candelas would have been a no brainer for me. ❤
Lumens is how bright the light is without a reflector and lense. , candela is how intense the beam is once the reflector and lense is added. The candela for the BATON Turbo is higher than the baton 4 even though the light has higher lumens candela/reflector and lense determines how far the light will go. Candela = intensity. It's mostly the way the lense and reflector work together that give it the power. I hope that makes sense and helps answer your question.
Something's wrong with the math here 😁. 60lm-10days?!?!(5:50) probably hours 😁. 300lm- 1h44min.

I really wish they would have included a tail button
Thanks for the review. Exactly what I needed, just bought one based on your review :)

Best flashlight for me is the one I have in my pocket at the time I need it…Reason why I like the Baton 4 and now the Turbo.
great with the seeker switch 💯

I still ordered it but wish it had a tail switch 😢
I was thinking the same thing. Tail switch would have been sweet for this one.
my only gripe about the belt clip is that its not fixed in terms of rotation, id prefer they had it stay in place like the other baton lights, i removed it for this reason as i was finding it difficult to orient the light in my hand when the clip was off center.

Will other 18350 non-Olight batteries work in it?
Can't wait to get my baton turbo in the mail I ordered it last night 🤘
I appreciate the semi standard beam tests on your channel, i can just pull up a different video to get a good idea how beams look on new vs old ones.
Will the head of baton turbo fit in the body of warrior nano?
Unfortunately it will not.

Why does my baton 4 put out more lumens than the baton turbo??
Lumens is how bright the light is without a reflector and lense. , candela is how intense the beam is once the reflector and lense is added. The candela for the BATON Turbo is higher than the baton 4 even though the light has higher lumens candela/reflector and lense determines how far the light will go. Candela = intensity. It's mostly the way the lense and reflector work together that give it the power. I hope that makes sense and helps answer your question.
Does the baton turbo head fit and work on other baton models? Or the warrior mini series models?
nereden alabilirim
If you put rechargeable RCR123 battery in will you have full 1000 lumens?
Is the lens glass or plastic?
This or Javelot long range??
Can this be charged with the magnetic proprietary charging cable used on the Baton 4?
Anybody know the .5 lm runtime on this while using the CR 123A?
im not gonna lie. the adaptor for the cr123A battery is gona go missing. id rather just take the hit on performence and have a native cr123
I wonder if they'll have replacement adapters in the accessories menu on the website 🤔
Alguien sabe si la garantía olight aplica por caídas , mi lámpara de cayó y no volvió a encender ?
No tail switch 😢
Does it fit in the Baton 4 charging case?
No
I would have liked to have seen type c charging
Agreed. Or maybe with a larger battery too.
I want it.
Put this up against fenix tk05r. 1000 lumens 450m throw 18350
This light is fucking ridiculous.
I ordered the green already but thinning of adding a black one.
Nice
Got mine for £14.99 😆
👍🙂
Cons:
Expensive
No stage between 300 an 1000 lumen. Thats really a downer.
😎🤙🏻
Con- Color Temp. Why olight does not give customers a choice in 4500 or 5000k options. which is my preference.
olights are fine for around the house.
What do you use outside of the house?
Slow down
Lay off the caffeine before and during video-editing pls, thx😂 you crazy!
