Olight M22 flashlight EdisonBright Manufacturer
Wow just wow!
I received this flashlight last week and couldn't be more impressed with the flashlight, packaging and accessories.
PROS:
1. This flashlight comes in a plastic case with just about anything you could ever want for your flashlight: Batteries, extra glow in the dark tailswitch cover, lanyard (long and silver), case, diffuser and anti-rattle battery tube.
2. The brightness at 950 lumens is just ridiculous and maximum candela is 23,256 with a max light throw of 305 meters or 333.55 yards (that's three football fields).
3. Additional accessories are inexpensive and easy to find, for instance tactical weapon mounts and tactical weapons switches (I plan to use this light on my AR 15)
4. User interface uses a head loosen-tighten to change consecutively between 3 modes of 20, 250 and 950 lumens. One click gets you back to the last mode you had it in. You can also get 950 lumens immediately by double pressing or clicking the tailcap quickly. I wish all flashlights had this ability. And I'll be mounting this on my AR 15 because it's one of the few flashlights that allows you to directly access the strobe function by quickly pressing/clicking the tailcap three times. It does take practice to consistently get to strobe mode, so be ready to practice if you're going to use for home protection or with weapons.
5. The included holster is amazing. The light head goes down in the case where there is a round hole that lets you shine the light while it's still in the holster. Also the tailcap is readily accessible because it pops up through the top. I also like that it has small extra pockets on the sides to carry two 18650 rechargeables or four CR123As.
6. Accepts 18650 Li-ion rechargeables. I use and highly recommend Orbtronic rechargeable batteries--this deal includes a good charger also (18650 Smart Li-ion Charger and Two 3100mAh PROTECTED Orbtronic) I only wish they were Amazon Prime Eligible.
7. This light is small enough for every day carry (EDC) but it packs a whollop...for now it's my favorite among a Fenix PD 32 Ultimate Edition and SureFire E2D Defender Ultra LED flashlight I also own. They are each great in different ways but the Olight's price, versatility, brightness and overall packaging make it a winner.
8. Has a cigar-style grip for use when wielding a pistol.
9. Cigar-style ring and pocket clip are detachable.
10. Anti-scratch type III hard anodizing aluminum body is tough.
11. Stainless steel black or silver crenellated bezel protects the lens, and can be used as an effective defensive tool.
12. I really like the name of the light "Warrior"; childish but I can't help myself.
CONS:
1. Some people do not like the bold checkered texture on the body of the light. Personally, I like the appearance of finer texturing on my other lights better but in handling the M22 Warrior I have not found any problems with this lights texture being slippery or contributing to me dropping it.
2. The head of the light is larger than most EDCs. For some this will be a drawback that may prevent daily carry.
3. Along the same line, size/weight may be a bit much for some EDC needs: (Length)144mm, (Head)Diameter 41mm, (Tube)Diameter 25mm and weight 146g without battery.
4. This light, like many others cannot "tail stand." This means I can't place it on its tail on a horizontal surface so it projects light up.
5. I doubt I'll ever use the included lanyard it's long enough to put around your neck and it's silver (not a tactical color).
In closing, I really love this light and give it my highest recommendation. If you're not a flashlight nut like me and you need just one LED flashlight, this should be the one.
