Olight is doing a "winter sale".. The seeker 4 mini is 50% off and some of my other 'go-to' items are discounted.


Olight Javelot Pro 2 Hunting Kit $253.46 (RRP $389.95) (This is as cheap as I've ever seen it.)

From the website:

The intense beam and ultra-long throw make the Javelot Pro 2 a perfect long-distance flashlight for hunting, search and rescue, or property perimeter checks! Gear up and get outside with this elite upgrade!

  • Mind-blowing performance: Max 2,500 lumens with an extreme 1050-meter beam distance
  • Multiple applications: The perfect body diameter allowing you to comfortable use handheld or mount on your long-range rifle with the optional dual-stage remote switch.
  • Battery pack: Supersized battery with a consecutive 12-day runtime

Olight Seeker 4 Pro $139.96 (RRP: $199.95)

Taken from the website:

  • Higher Performance: Max throw: 260m; max output: 4,600 lumens, 10% higher than the Seeker 3 Pro.
  • Effortless Operation at your Fingertips: The enlarged metal side switch offers improved rotational grip and a much smoother stepless dimming experience.
  • First Laser Microperforation in the Flashlight Industry 1,200 micro holes are created on the metal bezel to display visible indicators with a futuristic and elegant look.
  • The Best Wingman Ever - the Versatile Holster As an industry-leading and innovative holster, this groundbreaking design offers flashlight auto lock/unlock, charging, storage, and carrying options.
  • Dual Charging Options: Type-C charging (with Holster) or MCC3 magnetic charging (MCC3 2A charging).

Olight Marauder Mini 7000 Lumens RGB LED Torch $194.96 (RRP $299.95)

This is something I am definitely not going to buy. This is a stupid bright flashlight. That's about it. It has red/green/blue and that's pretty bright but, from what I've seen, it's heavy and bulky (understandably).

This would be good for camping, caving, doing other things in the dark where you need light (get your mind out of the gutter), but probably not hunting.

If you're going to get something like this, make sure you don't use it to bother people / neighbors / other campers; seriously.

From the website:

  • Large Battery Capacity: Customized 24Wh 32650 rechargeable lithium battery ensures extended runtime. Now compatible with Olight’s MCC3 magnetic charging cable.
  • Uniformly Distributed RGB Colour LEDs: Three RGB color LEDs are uniformly distributed around the converging lens, making it suitable for use during any occasion.
  • Dual-beam with Spot and Flood: An array of LEDs offers two powerful beam choices: a 600-meter max throw from the central LED’s spotlight beam, or a 7,000-lumen max output floodlight beam from the 9 surrounding LEDs.
  • Safest in its Class: A built-in thermal sensor and cooling fins to ensure safety in case of overheating and lens obstruction.

Otacle A1 Hatchet $74.37 (RRP $123.95) (Also the cheapest I've ever seen it)

So I ended up buying this during the last sale. It's SO much better than the crappy Bunnings thing I got.

From the website:

  • Multifunctional: Incorporates a hatchet, a hammer, a pry bar, and a nail puller.
  • Durable Steel: Robust full-tang construction made from tough and durable 50Cr15MoV stainless steel.
  • Comfortable Grip: Ergonomic G10 handle with a non-slip matrix texture ensures an excellent grip.
  • Kydex Sheath: Extremely durable Kydex sheath offers safe storage and transport as well as protection for the blade.
  • Belt Clip: Built-in adjustable belt clip on the sheath allows easy, hands-free transport.

Array 2 Pro High Performance Headlamp $97.96 (RRP $139.95)

I now have two of these (one for me, one for the clone).. well worth it!

From the website:

  • High-Performance LEDs: A maximum output of 1500 lumens. 60° tiltable design for oriented lighting and clear visibility whenever and wherever you need. One-piece seamless aluminum housing offers excellent heat dissipation.
  • 3 Light Sources: floodlight, combined floodlight and spotlight, and red light for multi-scene applications. Large switch button on headlamp top, easy to change light modes and brightness you like.
  • Smart Motion Sensor Function: allow controlling the light more flexibly by waving your hand. IPX4 waterproof rating, withstand heavy rain and other severe weather.
  • Multiple Applications: such as camping, hiking, walking, running and night fishin.

    • It does depend on your membership level. If you are Silver or above you get early access to the sale.

      • sooo its targeted?

        • +1

          This was my stuff-up.. I was logged in when I checked the start date / time.. I've updated the post to start later today. Sorry about that. I didn't realise I was a 'silver' member now..

        • When they have free stuff to give away it does help if you have access to the sale early as the free stuff can run out within the first few minutes of even the early access sale starting. I guess if you can get in before the main sale starts then your stuff will get dispatched faster too. It can take ages for your stuff to get dispatched during a sale.

  • Not after any torches outputting more lumens than our sun, but I appreciate the effort with your descriptions OP.

    • I had a feeling I wrote something stupid… but now I can't find where lol.. Lil' help?

      • No way, it was legit very informative. Especially since you've tried the products. Some bits made me laugh too "get your mind out of the gutter". 🤣

  • Am I reading this correctly, it’s a proprietary charging cable??

    • +2

      Most of these things do use a proprietary magnetic charging cable but some of the newer models are starting to also come with USB-C charging ports.

      There are some great benefits of the magnetic charging style.. but the downside is that it's proprietary… and USB-A to boot..

      Still, for hunting / camping, and the purpose and nature of the intended use, I just find these things are the best value of what's available. The hunting kits get insane throw..

      • Ok, so it’s just a cable with a USB A which I can plug into any Power brick (with usb a) that’s ok I guess.

        Do you know how long the mini will last? And if I leave it on the whole time would it heat up much? It’s for a art project I’m working on

        • You can also get this little adaptor that lets you plug in a USB-C cable. It's a handy little thing you can leave in your bag.

      • I just find these things are the best value of what's available

        Sorry, but you absolutely have not looked very hard in that case. Olight aren't even close to a value option. By all reports quality but a middling brand to me, at best, and I won't support this move to proprietary or non-swappable batteries.

  • +1

    The Otacle A1 Hatchet sounds like a youth crime special

  • +2

    Just a PSA, olight torches use proprietary batteries. So it'll cost a bit for spares.

    • They're actually reasonably-priced so I don't mind it. e.g. a Panasonic NCR18650B is $16.72 while Olight's 18650 is $19.95.

      • There are other places you can get 18650 that would be cheaper than that though.

        • +1

          How cheap do brand-name protected 18650s get? There are cheap 18650s but I don't bother with them any more.

          • -3

            @eug: It's possibly to get like 5 18650s for $20 on aliexpress.

            Care to explain the neg? It's worth buying on aliexpress to avoid the 500% markup.

            • @Caped Baldy: I didn't neg, but I personally avoid cheap lithium cells. I'm sure you've heard a lot about lithium battery fires - they can be caused by both poorly-manufactured cells and poor charging.

              • @eug: That's fair but a bit of research and you can easily find reputable sellers. I've got dozens of flashlights and batteries and haven't issues with batteries exploding. It is an issue for e-bikes and scooters where the in-built charging is poor quality and they pack in the components.

                I'm on the subreddit and there's more issues from people leaving the lights on and burning themselves than actual fires. Avoid the items with outrageous battery life (eg 10000mAh for an 18650) and the ones with fire in the name (eg sureFire).

      • +1

        Olight's 18650(olightstore.com.au) is $19.95.

        And cannot be used in any other product. So no, I don't regard that as reasonable. You're paying more for less functionality, less capacity as well.

        • And cannot be used in any other product.

          I guess you use your torches differently to me. I just leave the battery in my Olight and charge it when it goes low. I repeat until the battery dies in a few years, then I replace it. I don't have a need to use it in other products.

          • @eug: Two is one, one is none. If you don't actually need a light, from time to time, great. If you've ever found yourself in a situation where you've got a flat battery that needs a swap out (side of the road, extended power failure, work, etc).

            Point being is that you can find comparable (or superior) lights at the price that offer the option. In fact, I'd be as bold as to say as 95% of other lights offer the option.

            Your needs may change, so why not get the most for your money now, rather than later?

    • +1

      What's the difference between the Olight battery and a regular 18650?

      • +3

        To enable in-body charging through the magnetic cap, Olight's 18650 adds a small negative terminal ring at the top which connects to the charging circuit in the tailcap.

        You can use a regular button-top 18650 in some Olights, you just can't charge it in the torch. You'd want to test it out first before going on a trip with it though.

    • Just buy normal 18650s as spare though. Easier to throw them all into a charger.

  • FYI OP I have been eyeing off the javelin Pro 2 kit for a while and the 35% discount is very stock standard for almost the past year on every single I like sale.

    I can't speak to the rest of the pricing that you've mentioned, but I have noticed their sale discount percentage has been quite consistent and nothing really out of the ordinary.

    So even if you miss out on this sale of the next one that comes around, you'll probably be able to pick up the same thing again for a similar price.

    • Absolutely correct.
      They changed their direction a bit this year and the sales are fewer but the discounts are basically the same. I've spent a lot on olight gear over a lot of years but am pretty over them now, for these reasons:
      * Offer the same product in varied colours and limited editions to encourage collecting
      * Drip feed the new editions during sales to force people to buy stuff the moment the sale goes live
      * Attract 'whales' by offering customer tiers which encourage insane spending to reach the next tier and unlock benefits
      * One of the tiers allows access to early access to new products (which I fell for) - customers pay to beta test products but it makes you feel like you're in an exclusive club because you agree to an NDA
      * Sales are full of bundles which change in content and price each sale
      * Proprietary charging methods to keep you in the brand
      * Provide only USB cables for charging so that if you have an issue with a torch, customer support can blame whatever power brick you're using (though they are better now they have lifetime warranty)
      * Create an army of superfans who won't tolerate negative criticism of the brand

      Having said all that, they do offer some niche products which are quite good quality. A lot of the 'regular' torches though are eclipsed in quality, brightness etc by other brands. But if you want torch that offers UV and a laser, or a lantern that is also a sub-par bluetooth speaker, you don't have many choices.

  • +1

    Olight have some nice looking products with some horrible choices. I don't support them because of their move to proprietary batteries or integrated ones you cannot swap out.

    Also note the headlamps battery warranty in some regions is an appalling one year (potentially more in Aus, but not because they want to) and it is not designed to be swapped easily….no. Nope.

  • Cashrewards has 12% cashback. Expires in 4 days.

    • sick! I'll update the details.

  • +1

    Marauder Mini is $194.96. They just updated their site, while also removing this price form their eBay store and Amazon.

    I have this, love it. I am on acreage, it's fantastic for lighting up the paddocks and spotting.

    • Thanks for this! I've updated the post

  • The Seeker 4 mini at this price is really tempting, but I suspect the Arkfeld Pro is probably better for both white and UV, as well as battery life - plus it has a laser. Should I wait for that to go on sale or just grab this one?
