A swing and a miss for O-light this time.

by Gadge, from TX, United States Written on December 29, 2014
I'm a big fan of O-light products, and I own at least 4 of their flashlights, including 2 of the full size Intimidator models. I am disappointed in this particular mini-Intimidator product. It was a Merry Christmas to me gift, but it's going back to Optics Planet. Fit and finish are excellent. Ergonomics are poor. The flashlight has no balance, and the textured finish is not very functional compared to the full size models. The grip almost feels slippery compared with the big brothers' that seem to jump into the user's hand and stay there. The battery tubes are mislabeled - polarity is reversed. The polarity markers on the inner body are correct as are the included instructions. If you careful load CR123s following the plastic battery tube markings, the light won't work. Finally, the quality and intensity of the beam were below expectations. There is no parabolic reflector as the light is intended to flood rather than spot. However, the diffuser lens is really cheesy appearing. There are noticeable cold spots where the three LED beams overlap - not the smooth, clean, daylight illumination that we are now addicted to since CREE technology sent pale yellow incandescent torches to obsolescence. I'm still an O-light fan, but this one needs to go back the the drawing board.
