i3T

If you’re a gadget fiend and you love outstanding quality, this is the perfect small torch for you. Smaller than you imagine, fits into the palm of your hand. Two brightness levels, you can spot by pressing the end cap, once for a lume that’s great for close up work, twice for a 200lm spot that lights up the room or has a great long distance reach. I bought to fit in the elasticated pouch of my leatherman charge and fits perfectly. Comes in black also but I went for the anodised sand colour which has a really good feeling. Obviously early days on reliability but impressed so far

Cracking bit of kit VERY well made and packaged. Very bright for a single AAA cell. Being REALLY picky it lacks a beam adjust like a LED Lenser but it appears much more solidly made. Obviously bright is not enough for me so I’ve fitted a 10440 battery (3.7 volt) which even the low setting is pretty bright but on Full Bore it’s ridiculous! Will it last running twice the voltage, who knows? I’ll use it every day at work and will report back if it melts or if it’s still going strong I’ll report on that in a couple Months. Update, as above I’ve been heavily abusing this poor little torch for nearly a year running twice the voltage it was designed for and it’s only just started to develop a slightly dickie on off switch, on off every 66 seconds for 10 hours a day four days a week is quite some going though. For ‘normal’ users out there I’m sure you’d get a life time’s use out of it. I’m going to retire it from her hard life, drop back to a1.5 volt AAA cell and carry around in non work trousers. As for those expecting a full beam light for constant use of more than a few mins under cars etc you need to have read up about battery’s under load and how they perform. These use tiny batteries that just aren’t designed to provide constant high drain use, it’s like any item you need to buy the correct tool for the job ie a larger (poss AAcell) battery or one of Olights rechargeable 3.7 volt torches. Incidentally, one of those is next on my purchase list so watch out for that review. Sadly, my ‘retired’ to non work trousers little baby managed to find a tiny hole in the corner of my Jeans pocket and that was the last I saw of her. So, here we are three years after original purchase I’ve bought another! Buy one for everyone you love they REALLY ARE that Good. A thousand times better than your phone and if in your pocket you’ll using it a least once a day, when you do you’ll wonder how you ever managed without one.

Great bit of kit. I now have 2.. Good to store ready for use and only 1 x AA battery required

This is a very small but bright torch and an excellent quality product. It's easy to slip in your pocket or clip onto the peak of a baseball hat. I keep mine in my photography backpack as it's super easy to hold and use when taking photos at night. I have bought numerous torches over the years, mostly Maglight or LED Lenser but this is my first from Olight and I'm impressed enough to buy others from Olight.

This is an excellent bit of kit. I already own the I5R EOS and it's a brilliant torch, I use it every day. I decided to go for this one aswell, the I3T EOS (slightly smaller with one single AAA) so I could pair it with my Victorinox Climber. It clips and fits exactly on the left hand side of the Victorinox leather case with my knife inside, as seen in the picture. I bought the 'Desert Tan' colour, it looks awesome and it matches the leather Victorinox case, If that's important to you. Simple to use, a high and low option, always starts in low mode and double click for the high 180 lumens. Fantastic torch, looks good, really well made and really bright for its size. The double sided clip on the side is also brilliant.

Great torch. Price always goes down to about £12 around sale times and black Friday. I may buy another
