Carried this light everyday as a LEO mainly working nights, so it was used frequently. I’ve had it for about 2 years and never had any issues or complaints. Very bright and I prefer the toggle switch to the rotary one on the SureFire X300. However I fired about 200 rounds today at the range and I guess from heat or vibration it finally died. The light would stay bright even when batteries were low unlike the SureFire which dims as batteries age. However my SureFire x300 has seen equal amount of use and is still working fine. Considering the price I’d say it’s worth it and is a good value. However it does not seem to be built as robust and I think that showed compared to the SureFire. If I was going to pick one for go to war itd be the SureFire. For good value bargain use, the olight. Over all a good light just couldn’t hold up to the usage as compared to a SureFire.
Cons:
- Did not stand up to extended usage
Best Used for:
- LEO, Military and Competition
Would recommend: Yes

This was the last piece to my build. It is very compact, easy to mount and is very bright. The strobe feature is especially disorientating. The one and only complaint I have about this product is the ease at which you can accidentally turn it on in a soft case. You will eat through batteries unless you remove the light when not in use. It is an easy quick release and will save you quite a bit of money over time. Something this bright does not use cheap batteries and eats power up. I would highly recommend for anyone with a tactical need; the small size and amazing brightness would serve well in small, tight spaces.
Pros:
- Size, brightness, ease of use, easy on and off.
Cons:
- Easy to turn on when put away.
Best Used for:
- Tactical use
- Tactical purposes
Would recommend: Yes

Olight is my favorite pistol light and optics planet has the lowest prices. Most sites only carry valkyrie. Definitely recommend this especially at this low price. I can't buy anything from my local gunship because optics planet beats all their prices.

I use these on my AR Pistols. Mounted on the 9:00 O'clock position of the front rail is perfect. Easily activated with my thumb. The throw is just right for a pistol. Plenty of throw, but also a nice fat spot. Not a narrow beam at all. Hard to beat for the money. I've owned lots of Olight's and never had a failure.
Best Used for:
- weapon light on AR pistols

Pros:
- bright
- Durrable
- Ease Of Use
- Fit an finish

THE OLIGHT RAIL MOUNTED LIGHT IS VERY EASY AND NICE PRODUCT. IT IS PERFECT FOR PISTOLS AND RIFLE MOUNTS. IF YOU HAVE MLOC OR KEYMOD, YOU WILL NEED THE NECESSARY ATTACHMENTS. THE LIGHT IS BRIGHT AND HAS TWO TYPE OF SETTINGS BUT EXTREMELY EASY TO USE BUT I HAVE NOT USED WITH EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF ROUNDS BEING FIRED

This light is absolutely awesome. It is super bright, And easy to Put on/ take off. I would definitely recommend it and i will be buying more of them. You can lightly press the switch and it shuts off when you let go of the button or you can click it and it stays on. Click both buttons for strobe.

This is a good light with a great battery life and easy to mount. It is BRIGHT! I have it on my 308 and can see targets 200 yards out at night.
I like how small it is; I sometimes forget it is even there.
The only drawback to the light is that the switch is confusing and it seems like I have to do different things to get the light to turn off, and sometimes I get the strobe function by accident.
This is so bright that I would NOT use it on a weapon intended for indoor or short range use.
Best Used for:
- medium to long range shooting
Would recommend: Yes
