As my fishing adventures grow through the FishingMad YouTube channel and TV series, I’m always looking to push the limits and explore new avenues to create refreshing content. Like with all other reviews, we like to measure the color of the beam and other characteristics like CRI and duv.

Once the thermal limiting has stepped the brightness down, the highest modes will become unavailable, so for example after L6 stepped down at 23 minutes, L6 and L7 are not available. Dual-beam with flood and spot:Features a 600-meter round spotlight beam from the central LED and a 7,000 lumens floodlight beam from 9 surrounding LEDs.We just needed something reliable and handy to light up the whole of the garden when taking dogs out last thing at night. A single press will turn the light off again (when unlocked) and the last used mode, except level 7, will be remembered the next time the light is turned on.

All functions and effects of the lamp are controlled through the power switch with rotary function and the power mode switch. The output measurements in this review are based on my homemade integrating spheres, each equipped with an Extech SDL400 Lux Meter.

With the smart and user-friendly control, the light can be adjusted without problems even in the dark, perfect for situations where you can't take your eyes off the object you're illuminating!

CRI is the standard 70 CRI fare, so reds and browns are not rendered as well as >90 CRI flashlights. This often includes nighttime bushwalks, The torch plays a big role in allowing us to navigate safely but more excitingly to use the spotlight to discover wildlife.

On opening, you had to simply remove the protective film from the lens and also unscrew the bottom, and remove the protective plastic from the battery. I can’t see where Olight has many any specific definitions of what the emitters in the Olight Marauder Mini flashlight are. I’ll mention them here again: high sustained output, long runtimes, high capacity battery, flood and throw in 1 flashlight, RGB with real LEDs, and not AUX. I do wish the Mini offered USB-C charging (and possibly a powerbank feature) as the Marauder 2 does. Despite the flashlight's many functions, it is very user-friendly, something that you almost always get out of all Olight flashlights.

Three RGB color LEDs are uniformly distributed around the converging lens, making it suitable for use as a lightsaber when no one is watching. A large circular LED sits in the centre of the head to enable an 600 m spotlight beam, and 6 smaller LEDs circle the edge in pairs to produce the 7000 lumen floodlight beam. As per all high powered flashlights, and as clearly stated in the manual, most of the higher modes will step down in brightness.

And since I reviewed the Olight Marauder 2, its bigger brother with 14,000 lumens, I couldn’t pass this one. or so, the on/off cycle is more than one screen, so it’d just (very incorrectly) look like a flat line. Large Battery Capacity: Customized 24Wh 32650 rechargeable lithium battery ensures extended runtime. Well, if you check out our Olight Marauder 2 review, you will notice that the ‘throw’ beam is rectangular.
