I bought one yesterday, before seeing this video haha I've been hesitating between UV & Laser for a while, decided to go on the website to see the discounts (didn't know yet about the new one), but then saw a bundle that had the pro, with both UV and Laser, and the i5T EOS included. Didn't think twice, bought it ! You made me discover Olight products a couple of years ago, and for that sir, I thank you a lot ! Cheers from France.

I need a more powerful UV to hunt vampires 🧛‍♀️ 😤

Great review and comparison! Thanks!

I’ve carried the Arkfield since it came out, and it instantly became my all-time favorite non-tactical EDC light. I upgraded to the Arkfield Pro and love it even more.

Haven't purchased any Olight products in a while, but this product caught my eye. Love the muti-functionality of this light. It feel substantial in my hands, build quality is top notch as always. I got the NW version, which only comes in black and I'm okay with that.

Nice review. Thank you

You got me on this one. Instantly purchased. 30% off today wow

Nifty light! Love the UV mode too. I live in the desert Southwest and have been hunting scorpions to reduce the population. They fluoresce bright green under UV. I now know more about scorpions than I ever wanted to. Took out my palm trees this year and haven't seen one since. They don't nest so poison doesn't work well except to reduce their food supply. Hunting turns out to be the most effective way to get rid of them.

Nice video! Just ordered the zombie arkfeld combo with the warrior nano!

I have the tiny Olight iOS 3 keychain flashlight (literally still $10) and it sits next to a very small Victorinox knife on my keychain. The Olight has been beat to death, gone through a couple of washes, still just keeps going and runs on a AA battery. Best $10 I’ve spent and perfect since I hate too much weight in my pockets. This new Olight looks very impressive.

Thats awesome! I got one for my gf since shes terrible with keeping EDC in her pockets so at least this just rings onto keys or something. I am the same with my Baton 3. It has been my daily since I got it 2 years ago to replace the mini Baton 😂 . All in all keep being prepared!!

The 2 way clip is where it’s at for me! Being able to clip it to my pocket or bag is obvious but, the ability to clip it to the bill of my ball cap while I’m using it is KEY! (Especially since I only have one hand)

Good review, thanks for sharing, God bless !

I EDC an Arkfeld with UV…….it is absolutely my favorite light! Carries like a pocket knife. This new pro? *I want one! Great video Don………as usual!

Thanks picked one up.

Great video! This 2nd version looks much better.

Nice detailed elaboration.

Memory mode for the arkfeld pro is a turn off when used w lock out mode. So to turn it on; hold and it goes into moonlight mode. Then continue holding for low med high. Single press to turn off. Memory in high, turn off & on it stays at high. But if the light is in lockout mode I would have to repeat and hold the power button to turn it on starting back at moonlight mode. Then continue holding for low med high. If they would of added a dbl tap from lock out mode to go directly into the last memory mode (high) would of been great. (If you dont lockout your lights, no issue) I lock out all my lights. Thanks for the review

I like the idea of using UV instead of red light. Sometimes red light stands out in the environment with distant city, moon light etc. It may be harder to detect blue light than red one.

Have had an SR2 Baton in my pocket every day since 2016 and looking to finally replace it with an OD Green Arkfeld Pro. Even warrantied it back in 2018 for a water submersion. Worked great for years ever since. Great products.

UV lights are very handy for those who check IDs, like law enforcement and security.

Have the Arkfeld with the UV and I love it.

Hey brother, the new streamlight wedge XT is awesome! If you like the wedge you will love the XT! I love mine so much I'm buying another so I will always have it on me as an edc item. Cool review!

Just bought mine i was waiting for the pro since they released the UV version

Looks like a fine light

Love this light so much

i have the arkfeld and edc it and love it. just bought the seeker 4 pro and also love it and i just ordered the arkfeld pro

Just ordered mine, Olight website was out of the Zombie green but Amazon still has some.

Just ordered one. Cause I need 45 flashlights, Lamps and lanterns. Olight should be sponsoring me.

Can you see the beam from the laser pointer in the dark or just where it terminates?

Love the light, wish it had just a little more throw, but otherwise great

Nice Light If my Streamlight nano over gives up on me after 10 years, I just may have to get one.

Nice little light. A bit expensive maybe, but so is everything I like these days. Used the UV in a hotel room ... I had to change rooms! And my cats love the laser spot :-)

I received my Arkfeld pro Dec 28. I do believe I received the lesser Pro flashlight. I went through the modes as you showed us but I only have 4 modes plus the strobe. 1: 1 lums, 2: 15 lums 3: 100 lums 4: I think is 420 lums. I double tap and it goes down in light power. Why is that ? I triple tap and it goes to strobe. Then when in the one of the upper 3 modes, when I hold it down, it quickly changes from from one light mode power to the next. 15 -100-420. I can stop at any one of them and again if I'm at the highest light mode and double tap to go to 1300 lums it steps down instead. What do u think ? 😢

Just bought one. I wish olight would make one that had a one press to red light option. This looks great though!

Love this light, but the clip is the weak point of this thing. Mine was caught on a seatbelt and stretch, now it hardly has any tension left. The screws seem to be of non standard size, at least on mine. I cannot take the clip off to reshape the thing. May try out the EDC27 if I decide I need a replacement.

I have the original Gen1 Arkfeld and also the Gen1 Titanium Arkfeld. My Arkfeld is in my pocket from the time I wake up to the time I go to bed, I LOVE the light. I use the moonlight every night to make sure I don't trip over a dog in the bedroom lol I use the laser almost daily to point things out to the kids or at work. I just purchased this along with the mini, not sure if I'll use the UV, but at least its there, I got the zombie color, can't wait.

I’ve been carrying this light since it came out and now I also have this version.

I’ve never had it turn on, or maybe never noticed lol. I don’t use the lockout feature. It’s a great light.

@14:11 You say "double click", I have to triple click for the 1300 lumens on mine, double make it do a strobe light feature.

Is the laser powerful enough to have the beam visible or no?

These look great! I do prefer the replaceable rechargeable batteries of the Warrior Nano & Mini 3 (having a spare charged battery to swap out is awesome). But I might have to upgrade my original Arkfeld with the Pro version.

I'm worried about the pocket clip when wearing faces the button towards your leg getting turned on accidentally. Not sure if I dig the lockout mode.

Ordered the Zombie Green within like 60 seconds of the drop. Absolutely cannot wait. Bought the Arkfeld UV like a week before they announced the Pro. Gonna try to convince my wife to let me keep both. 😂

When I double tap mine, it goes to strobe. What am I missing?

Does it have a sensor?

A little off-topic, but at 10:40 you have an M3R Javelot on the Omino. I’ve never heard of that light and it looks exactly like the OG Warrior X. Is that like a pre-release item?

???Is the built in battery lifetime warranty???

I never realized it, but both my gun light and my key light are Olight.

They should make a version with just 2 white LEDs, one floody and one thrower. That would sell like hotcakes. The laser and UV are cool, but I personally don't need them so much.

Sootch00 where is your full book recommendation list?

A double click is turbo for you? For me, it's a triple click and only works above 50% battery. Did they change it mid run?

From a tactical point of view the fiddly top mount button and lack of rear end switch kill it for me, unfortunately. The Surefire is still the best tactical light, but this Olight looks okay as an EDC for urban exec types. The Stiletto is recommended by Christian Craighead, by the way. (look up Obi Wan Nairobi if you don't know who he is)

I got mine and the settings are different. Double click for strobe and triple for turbo. It is my new favorite carry light.

But it’s not flat, it’s just flatER than it is wide. It’s still thicker than a AAA pen light.

I really like Olight fl;ashlights. They are built like tanks. I have a S1Baton and it was dropped in the gravel driveway,I didn't know that at the time and was wondering where I had left it,one day I'm walking down the driveway and I found it. It had been run over multiple times by delivery truck and earth moving equipment giving it an extreme torture test that I hadn't meant to do,I activated the button and no light,my first thought was it had been damaged and became broke,but I then thought to replace the battery and try it and that's all it needed. because of that I'm sold on Olight flashlights from here on out. I have people I know who poo poo on Olight because they've been conditioned to think the other name brands are the cats meow without ever really torture testing them,but as for me I've experienced an accidental torture test and know what quality they have. I am giving serious consideration to making this my new edc light.

One thing I hate about these Arkfeld's is that double sided clip. Reason being that if you EDC them in your front right jeans (pants) pocket, and drive a car, eventually the double sides clip will clip itself to the seat belt without you noticing it. Then when you go to take the belt off, it will bend the clip out away from the light body. This might be less of a big deal if the clips were replaceable, and you could easily remove them, then you could just replace a bent clip, or at the very least take it off and bend it back again. However they are not replaceable, and the screws that hold them in are loctited so hard you will strip the tiny heads waaay before they ever loosen (ask me how I know). Olight confirmed that they are not replaceable, and that I should not have attempted to take it off. At least they were good enough to warranty mine for a new Arkfeld UV.

Greetings from Columbus, GA, neighbor. I would to know run times in the various modes in addition to the varying intensities of white light. In addition, I’d like to know how much parasitic drain there is. Not everyone charges their light on a daily basis, but Murphy’s Law kicks in when you are unexpectedly in a stressful situation: flat tire on the freeway, lost hunter, etc. This info is not readily available on the box or in the instructions. A complete review would involve the reviewer asking these questions from their Olight contacts. Bottom line: can I trust this light to protect my loved ones in unexpected life-threatening situations?

Is the lifetime warranty grandfathered over into their older lights?

Im looking at this light, and i think it's VERY misleading to say, "comes in at 1300L"...yeah, for a whole 4 minutes and the light is useless after. . It's cool to mention it, "also, on turbo it's 1300 for 4 minutes if you actually need it, otherwise it's 450 on regular high mode which is plenty for most folks"

You said the o light magnetic charging is the best system. Icam interested to know why? Proprietary systems to me are the worst, especially in today times. Ol8ghts system is what keeps me from buying one. Now if it had usb c option then i would buy since lots of things use usb c and most people carry a usb c cable in their edc bag. I have a power bank in my sling with a built in usb c cable that can co er my chwrging needs for any device i have with me and also a 6 in 1 cable that can cover me if i should need a different connecfion or someone with me does. If i get stranded for some time i know i can charge my phone, tablet, earbuds, etc all because they use usb c. But with o light you better have their Proprietary cable with you or you are SOL. I feel li,e they do this on purpose to try and sell additional cables. 1 for home, 1 for the car, 1 for your edc bag, etc. They need to get with usb c. Apple finally did

Where is this supposed to fit? Much as I would prefer an unround flashlight, I do not carry one, because there does not currently exist an unround flashlight worth carrying. This particular flashlight is far too compromised to make it a tolerable EDC flashlight. Across the board, it is inferior to what I carry. What particular feature do you think makes this flashligh worth its weight or price? I hope someone makes a good unround flashlight.
