I’ve become a fan of Olight products after reviewing their Olight S2R Baton flashlight last December and more recently the Olight H1R Nova LED flashlight. My favorite feature of both of these flashlights is their magnetic charging base. Of course, I really like the flashlights themselves too. They are made really well, have a bright beam that lasts a long time on a charge, and they have easy to use controls.
Olight asked me to let all of our readers know about their new eBay store, so go take a look at their flashlights and other accessories at stores.ebay.com/olightdirectofficial.

I’m curious as to why you like the magnetic charging base, Julie. It’s just another non-standard connector that you have to carry around. Backward step for O-Light IMHO.
I like it because I don’t have to think about it or look at it to plug it in. I have one plugged into my laptop’s docking station. Since the light lasts so long for me, I don’t need to carry it around. I can see how that would be inconvenient for people who use their lights all the time though. Then a micro USB or Type-c would be the way to go.
Hi Julie, have you ever had to change the batteries? If so, what kind of battery(ies) does it take?
Thanks – Bill
Which flashlight are you asking about?
