We consider these our EDC items.

But do you carry a flashlight?

Im not talking a small pen light, but a truly bright flashlight.

Olight Baton 3

I know what youre thinking … Thats already a lot in my pocket!

I dont have room for a large flashlight, plus the weight alone would get to be too much.

Well, not with Olights newest release, the Baton 3.

Olight flashlight

The Baton 3 is approximately 212 long by 1 in diameter and weighs in at 1.87 oz.

The Baton 3 has five brightness configs and one strobe setting.

The brightness prefs are Turbo, High, Medium, Low and Moonlight.

The Medium setting is 60 lumens, lasting 7.5 hours of continuous run time.

The following two parameters have a run time of just over a day to multiple days.

The Low setting of only 12 lumens lasts 33 hours of continuous use.

The lowest setting of Moonlight is 0.5 lumens having a claimed run time of 20 days.

Being a small flashlight, you wouldnt expect an exceptionally large throw.

However, the Baton 3 is here to surprise you.

That is quite an impressive throw coming from such a small flashlight.

The Baton 3 has another feature I havent personally seen in a flashlight, especially one so small.

The Baton 3 has two timer tweaks that once reached, the light will shut itself off.

The first setting is a long timer setting allowing the desired light brightness to shut of after 9 minutes.

The second setting is a low setting allowing the desired light setting to run for 3 minutes.

These are not automatic parameters; you do have to go through the parameters to select these.

Hands-On

Functionality of the Baton 3 is relatively easy and self-explanatory.

The light will enter the Turbo setting.

If youd like to take a Baton 3 premium edition home, it will run you $99.95.
