Arkfeld Pro Rechargeable EDC Flat Flashlight, Black CW

i’ve daily carried this light for a little over 2 years now and it’s seen use almost everyday. i’ve used it mainly for working under cars, night time fishing or walking the dog at night and it excels at every task. I fully charge it twice a month and it lasts me minimum of 2 weeks. the main flood light is bright and reaches pretty far. UV light is useful although i don’t use it very much in my day to day tasks. Where i think this light excels is the Laser. As an automotive technician my favorite feature is being able to toggle the laser and main flood light at the same time as i use it a lot to show customers specific areas underneath theirs cars or their engine bays where problems may occur or have already occurred. my only concern with the light is that the toggle on and off button is very easy to accidentally press. I’ve had scenarios where the light would burn holes in my pockets due to me accidentally turning the light on in my pocket when i sit down. This also in turn melted the lens of my flashlight but it doesn’t affect the performance of the light. overall good light i recommend. very sturdy. i’ve dropped it countless times and it continues to work every single time. good build quality. comfortable in pocket

Amongst the many hats I wear, plumber and mechanic are two of my most worn. I am a flashlight nut, always been. Grew up reading books under the covers and that love of lights has only grown since. I bought this light specifically for doing diagnostic inspections. Anyone who's ever had to search for a teeny, tiny leak knows that light alone isn't always enough to find the source. You poor some water soluble uv dye upstream and switch on the uv and watch as your leak starts to glow. The green laser is also handy for pointing issues out to property owners too. And I love the various amounts of light that this can put out. The low setting is properly low. Perfect for not disturbing your partner or if you don't want to blind yourself. The high reaches out fairly far considering the size of this thing, which is super easy to carry. And if you're walking home alone and get spooked or you want to flag down some help on the side of the road, the double tap strobe is super handy. And let's not forget the vintage desert racing stripes! This is definitely the nicest looking light I own, without a doubt! The battery life is another pro, arguably one of the most important details to consider when you're thinking of adding a piece of kit to your edc. On medium with maybe thirty or so minutes of use, 5 days a week, I find I need to charge it maaaybe once every other week. On high that drastically reduces the runtime, naturally. And the inverse of that is also true with the lowest setting lasting maybe a month. All in all, I am so glad I took a chance on this light/laser/uv combo and would not hesitate to get another in the future

The OLIGHT Arkfeld Pro Rechargeable EDC Flat Flashlight is one of those tools that just feels dialed in from the moment you pick it up. The flat design makes it super easy to carry, and it disappears in a pocket way better than a traditional flashlight. It’s crazy how much functionality they packed in without making it complicated. The white light is very bright, and having the UV and laser modes built in actually turns out to be more useful than you’d expect. Switching between modes is quick and intuitive. Build quality feels premium, and the magnetic charging is convenient so you’re not messing with ports or cables. It’s also tough enough for everyday carry without feeling fragile. Overall, it’s a solid mix of compact, powerful, and practical. Easy 5 stars.

This is the perfect flashlight. It has adjustable light intensities, green laser pointer as well as a UV light. It is rechargeable using a USB-C cable which is supplied. You carry in shirt or pants pocket and tool bag. So far I have three. It comes in handy. The charge lasts a long time.

Purchased this light in Nov of 2024, it’s now about a year and 4 months since I bought this light and I use it nearly every day. It’s a fantastic light that’s rugged, durable, holds a charge for a long time, and is bright enough for realistically any need. The black light is useful for me as someone who works on cars to diagnose leaks with UV fluids. The lasers just cool and fun to play with for me. All in all I have put this thing through its paces; it’s been through the washer and dryer in a pair of pants and came out totally fine. I’ve dropped it dozens of times, even stepped on it, spilled chemicals on it, and it just keeps going. I also find great value in the clip that’s both deep Carry and compatible with hats to wear as a hat light, which I do at work constantly. A couple quirks; the button and selector ring are prone to getting dirt and gunk stuck in the crevices which makes operation difficult. Can be remedied with simple cleaning/degreasing with some alcohol. The light has on a handful of occasions acted strangely, such as suddenly showing that it’s out of battery when it is fully charged, then suddenly going back to normal after pressing and holding the button. The charger also has had some quirks with not wanting to turn red indicating that it’s charging when it is low on battery. Other than that, just realize that if using on the brightest setting (turbo) that the lens and front of the light get HOT and FAST. Do not touch it to your skin, you WILL get burned. Highly have enjoyed this light, however it seems they’ve rolled out a new line called the Arkpro Ultra (which is so needlessly confusing…Arkfeld Pro? ArkPro? Etc.) so perhaps they have fixed some of these issues.

Let’s start: First, the TLDR; it’s fantastic! Well made, hard bodied, magnetic rechargeable base! Oh my! I didn’t carry a flashlight, now it’s part of my everyday gear. Is it worth $100? I’d say no, except I’d buy it again if I lost mine! Yes! Yes it is! The longer: [I wasn’t paid for my review; and I paid for the product with my own money - this wasn’t a promotional review and I’ve received nothing free. I’ve owned and carried my Arkfeld Pro for ~30 days when I wrote this review.] Am I an OLIGHT fan? I wasn’t, but I own 2 of their flashlights and I’m looking at a 3rd now. They are converting me for sure! Do I believe that flashlights are EDC? I didn’t before now. Is $100 too much for a flashlight? I thought so, but I just can’t say that anymore. Do I use EDC gear? I carry a G43 and an OTF knife daily, yes. Also, I now carry an Arkfeld Pro daily… What’s my verdict? Holy cow, I now carry a flashlight daily! This thing is actually fantastic! The flashlight is well made with a solid and hard metal body. The magnetic base is useful for working on a car, sticking to corners with metal bead in the walls, clipping anywhere the clip doesn’t. …and about that clip, wow. Someone put thought into the design of a clip? Yes! Will clip in either orientation thanks to the clip design. Strong clipping that I haven’t been able to make slip either. Have clipped facing down at the very bottom of a thin undershirt when I’ve been up in the middle of the night. Doesn’t let go, and keeps light down and from waking my wife. The light is incredible! Multiple brightness selections, strobe. Oh yeah, that’s only one mode! It has three! It has a laser, and a UV light. The laser is bright and powerful, though daytime use is limited like most lasers. The UV light is incredible as well, and I actually find myself using that more at night to navigate our dark house without waking the wife or kids. Pros: it’s incredible - It’s powerful. The size is perfect for your hand and the square shape makes it oddly nice to grip. Battery life must be ridiculous because I’ve run mine so much and it takes forever to need charging. The charger is a nice magnetic charger with led indicators that are bright and unmistakable: you know when it’s connected and when it’s full! Although it’s not really necessary, because you really can’t connect it wrong! Whoever designed this thing should get an award! Cons: Well, let’s be honest - the price. But! Hear me out… what can you get (that’s quality) for cheap now. For $100, and I thought that was high too until I used it, this is a steal! I can’t think of another con, unless we want to count the size for the sake of loss. But the clip is incredibly strong, and short of leaving it magnetized to something, I can’t see how you’d lose it. Try it. It’s only $100 and it’s so incredibly good! I absolutely love mine, and I can’t see discontinuing carrying the thing. It’s just part of my daily gear now.

Update 2: It’s been more than a year since I purchased this light and it’s never let me down. The paint has yet to wear off despite living in my pocket and the battery lasts for days and days before needing a charge. I have bigger, more powerful and more expensive lights, but when I head to work each morning, this is the light I reach for every time. Update: After three months of use, the Arkfeld Pro has held up. Working in the summer heat leaves me drenched in sweat throughout the day, but the Pro handles moisture from sweaty pockets quite well. Battery life continues to last throughout the week at 4 bars with moderate use. Absolutely recommended! Update: I received this light on 5/10/24 and fully charged it as instructed. As of 5/18–over a week later—the battery is STILL at 4 bars, indicating between 75% and 100% charge! This is astounding battery life for a flashlight I’ve used daily since receiving it. I was initially a little skeptical of the proprietary, non-removable battery, but if this performance continues I’ll have to change my mind. I’ve long been on the quest for the perfect EDC work light, and I may have finally found it. I’m a pipe welder by trade and often work in dark, recessed areas. A flashlight is an absolute must-have for me, and not just for seeing in the dark—inspecting welds, peering inside piping systems and indicating systems and components to coworkers are just some of the things I need a flashlight for. I ordered the Pro after careful research and I’ve been extremely impressed thus far. The laser is extremely useful for directing attention to important areas. The UV light causes foreign contaminants inside of pipes to glow brightly, making them easy to identify and remove. Finally, the flashlight is beyond useful with both a soft moonlight mode—perfect for close up examination—and a blinding turbo mode should I ever need it. It disappears in my pocket and doesn’t dig into my thigh unlike other lights I’ve carried. What remains to be seen is the light’s durability and battery longevity. Updates to come.

I love this thing. It’s exactly what you’d expect from Olight—solid build quality, reliable performance, and a really well-thought-out design. The flat profile makes it super easy to carry in your pocket without feeling bulky, and it sits nicely without rolling around. Output is strong and consistent, and having multiple modes (like white light, UV, and green beam depending on the version) makes it really versatile for everyday use, work, or even inspections. It feels durable in hand—like it can take some abuse—and the battery life has been great so far. Charging is simple and convenient, which is a big plus for an everyday carry light. The only downside I’ve noticed is the finish. The paint does wear down pretty quickly with regular use, especially if you’re carrying it daily. It’s more of a cosmetic issue than anything, but it’s worth noting. Other than that, no complaints at all. If you want a dependable, compact EDC flashlight with premium build quality, this is a great choice.

Buena pero después de 1.5 años dejó de funcionar
