Talk to me about the Olight Mini

[revchuck38]

I'm interested in reviews as well, for nightstand duty on a PX4.

[skandar]

Lon, just a heads up, we are about to add the O-Light mini for the P-07, P-10C, Glock 19, and P-01 as well!

Will this be for the existing mini, or the new PL-2? Any chance you'll be working on one for the VP-9?

skandar, it is the original PL-mini Valkrie. We are going to add a PL-2 Valkrie for Glock 17/19 as well. No plans right now to do one for the VP9, but if we get enough interest and my mold guy can do it, we will add it. Thanks

I picked up a Mini after getying annoyed that all of the reviews were paid. Spent quite some time leving it in snow, throwing it off a second floor deck into the yard, kicking it across parking lots, sticking it on different guns, loaning it to a friend with instructions to ride it hard, baseball batting it across the workshop with a stout screwdriver handle, and it just keeps working.

But that's just my sample of one. The switches are also tightly enough spaced to bind on a Glock trigger guard but fine on everything else the light fits. The beam is a wide spill and lights up a room rather well despite its relatively low output. Does suck outdoors as a result where it won't sufficiently light the embankment across the street to use sights. Oh, the switches aren't copacetic with rifle mounting but it was explicitly not designed for that.

A friend of mine is an Olight dealer and has treated a couple of them in the manner Hi-Point described. They still work.

Now I just need holsters from Tony. Which have already been ordered.

[Lon]

Got these in a couple days ago. Finally got to wear the holster all day. Just as comfy as the one without the light.

[Lon]

Got a new shipment from Tony today.

From a brand point of view, in my household we have six O lights, the first one purchased in 2012. All have seen there fair share of abuse. Apart from a cracked lense, I have had zero issues. my EDC light is an O light .
