  • It has been a while since we discussed the reasons for liking the i3T series from Olight. So, have the reasons stood up, or is there less of a case to be made for this flashlight now that time has passed? In my opinion, i3T is still the G.O.A.T. when it comes to the AAA / 10440 category. I share 5 reasons why I think this way in this video.

      Why, yes. Black I3T 2 in my pocket right now, with a 10440. Original I3T, and a Dragon/Phoenix I3T 2 on my flashlight rack in the other room.

      The original has lived on my belt for years. Hard to find a reason for upgrading, to be honest, unless I lose the first.

    I own a lot of different lights… but I agree… it’s the best AAA/10440 light on the market… now the I5T/R definitely needs some upgrades… they are blown away by some other AA/14500 lights… enjoy the channel… keep up the great work!!!

      I agree with you that the i3T 2 is the best AAA/10440 on the market and that Olight needs to upgrade the i5R/T as it has become outclassed by the competition. I am also a big fan of Olight's Diffuse but that is a different type of light.

    I’ve had an i3t for about 6 or 7 years. Had the clip break on my once a few years back but aside from that no issues until recently. The button cap is getting a bit sticky and slow. I’m gonna buy a few more of these and leave em around the place.

    I recently got the i3t 2 eos because it was free (using O coins). There's nothing wrong with the older version, but the new ones are rated for 10440, and that lifetime guarantee is nice. The 10440s are what I usually run in them. I like the simple user interface and dual light power levels. I carry the i3t 2 eos, the Wurkkos TS10, and when going outside, the Wurkkos TD04 is usually added. My keychain also has the Boruit V3. Sometimes I'm carrying more flashlights 🔦 than knives 😂🔪

  • @carlbrickey2102

    I agree! The Olight i3T 2 is the best AAA/10440 flashlight on the market. A great upgrade of an already good flashlight.

    I bought an i3T like 4 years ago during an Christmas sale, wasn't really my top option I was looking at for a new edc light but I quickly found it was what I put in my pocket everyday, usually with a 1.2V NiMH. I've dropped it so many times and it literally has dents in it but always works. Got a i3T 2 when they came out and have carried it everyday since with a 10440. I'd love to see a version with a zoom function.

    @pancakeayaka 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    i3T2 is my favorite AAA/10440 flashlight now. The new pocket clip and high/low setting is a big improvement. I hope Olight would make reflector thrower version.

    @xLTxVEGAx 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    My i3t has been my daily carry with a 10440 for over 2 years now. I have the baton 3 pro but I definitely prefer to have the smaller form factor of the i3t.

    • @PardonMyEnglish
      @PardonMyEnglish  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Solid. Nice to have the option for a larger light if you wish but I’m with you. Realistically I definitely prefer the i3T in most cases.

  • @mhsvz6735
    @mhsvz6735 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You make a compelling argument for the i3T. I have version 1 of the i3T, but have moved on to the Lumintop Tool AA version 3. Both great flashlights though.

    Hey....i am a light collector....i have two i3t and just one i3t 2 in brass....beautiful.....i don't serve it often, cause i have a lot of light différents...but it is a very good and there is not elecricity....this is what will be used !
    Good job for your video and big Kiss to FRANCE ❤😂

  • @sarge27271
    @sarge27271 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I still love mine. Works awesome with a 10440.....If I need more, I have a Baton Pro. Olight makes nice lights. Cheers
    BTW, since you mentioned purchasing power of the USD, I thought I'd ask, Do you have 'Metals'? Specifically Ag? Cause you should.
    It's one of the only ways to protect your purchasing power. Stay Safe.

    Still rock the i3t a lot. I've been using the oclip in the same way i used the i3t in the past. I like the red light for preserving night vision around the house. I've been in a rotation between the i3t, oclip, and baton 3 for a long time now.

  • @pablofranco2692
    @pablofranco2692 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The I3T will always be one of the best 10440/AAA lights on the market for the money. Output and runtimes are great. I have been rocking the Weltool T1 pro tac which is a monster thrower in a AA form factor

    • @PardonMyEnglish
      @PardonMyEnglish  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sweet! I haven’t checked out the Weltool T1 yet but I’ll look into it.

    I love the i3t and after seeing your videos I too use a 10440 cell in mine and it works wonderfully.
    I like it so much I have an i3t plus in bamboo on the way.
    in searching the web no one has done 10440 tests in an i3t plus.
    If you havea video on it, I haven't found it, or any others for thet matter.
    Care to do one of your great 10440 tests in an i3t plus? 3:14 3:16

    • @PardonMyEnglish
      @PardonMyEnglish  2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Nice! The Bamboo i3T Plus looks really nice 👍 I have not tried the i3T Plus yet but I don’t think 10440s will work in it. Basically, when batteries are stacked, the overall voltage gets doubled. I don’t think the light internals would be able to handle the voltage because it would be around 7.4v or so. I personally would not risk trying it but hopefully that info helps.

    • @user-ov4um8uk6u
      @user-ov4um8uk6u 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@PardonMyEnglish That helps a lot. Then I don't think I'll risk it by putting 10440's. Guess I'll find some nice AAA rechargeables instead.
      Thank you so much for the quick reply.
      Really enjoy your channel and the information you provide. Keep up the fun.

      Now the search for a 10880 I guess. See that pineapple light has one, but seem to be a rare find in the wild. The search begins.

  • @t5king850r
    @t5king850r 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I like the i3t.2 especially the brass 2024 model it starts off in high or low but I still have some i3t version 1 in my collection mainly limited ones.

  • @RobX86
    @RobX86 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Personally, I've moved on from the i3T and i5T/R as my main EDC lights because of the horrible green tint. It doesn't seem bad in and on itself, but once you do a side-by-side with other lights/emitters, it becomes really obvious and kinda hard to ignore. In my personal loadouts, the i3Ts have been replaced by the Reylight Pineapple Mini and Streamlight Microstream and the i5R was replaced by the Acebeam Pokelit. I don't see myself going back to the i3t/i5T unless Olight gets the a grip on the tint issue and fixes or changes the emitters.

  • @NorthBorneoLights
    @NorthBorneoLights 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    i3t is probably not only one of the best AAA lights with a tactical switch - I reckon it may even be one of olight's best overall. Especially considering the price, and I'm not even kidding. It's a shame they won't adopt different emitter options because the i3t in particular is a bitch to do an emitter reflow on.
