Received my oâpen. Declared value was 19.98$. Donât know if itâs a random number or what it would costs without shipping but for me it was at least a safe value.
Really like it. Bright enough, nice feel, good quality what I expect from olight.
I received my Oâpen too.
Great looking light, plenty bright on AAAâs.
It comes in really good looking retail packaging, it would make a good gift.
Thanks for the deal.
Glad to hear things are arriving. In 3 days it will be a month since mine was supposedly shipped and I have not had any other China order take this long. My first GearBest order too.
I am beginning to worry. No update to 17track since 11/14 (14/11 for Europeans) when Netherlands post supposedly shipped it to the destination country. USPS reports âNot Foundâ per 17Track and using the tracking number on the USPS tracking site gives a orange âALERTâ message and a additional message which reads âUSPS Tracking⢠is unavailable for this product for NETHERLANDSâ.
This is the first time I have seen the USPS give this orange alert warning format rather than simply state that the number is not in their system or give tracking information.
Sorry - I got my 2 lights earlier this week (a red and a blue).
My wife âlikedâ (not loved) the red one, which is unusual (she thinks that my fascination with lights is âsillyâ :laughing:⌠she actually is carrying it in her purse now :)âŚ
Rich, if you havenât had any orders take a month before then youâre lucky. 6-8 weeks has been the norm for most(fast tech and EE X6 being notable exceptions). I hope you get it soon though. This is a nice looking light but at ~$30 was just a bit too pricey for me. I am not a collector! Iâm a modder, really!
Ordered on 10/27, received 11/24. Itâs a nice pen light that Iâm quite satisfied with. The switch is a bit stiff but on the plus side, that will reduce the likelihood of accidental pocket activation. Thanks Old-Lumens for putting this GB together.
I have a question. Thereâs mention of some kind of lock out, pointing to the area around the switch. I thought you might be able to twist the end to lock out the button, but that doesnât seem to be the case.
So what is the âlock out functionâ that their talking about? Itâd be nice to have that to prevent the light from coming on accidentally in her purse.
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!
EDIT: I figured out what they meant about the lockout. The threads are anodized, so you can lock out the light by loosening the part of the body that has the button to lock out the light.
red one was in my mailbox weds.
almost seems brighter than my Preons.
If I pd. $40 or $50 for this, I wouldnât be very happy.
But this was a great deal at this price.
it will make a nice dress shirt pocket light.
thanks again Old Lumens for your troubles bringing us this deal.

Got home from work last night to find my blue one in the mail box. Love it! Thanks Old-Lumens for setting this upâŚ. It must be a good one since my better half said to me last night âohhhh, whatâs that?â.
My two arrived in good shape today, a Red and a Blue. All of mine including the original Black one do not have the front section glued to the battery holder tube. Not able to remove bezels though so far. Overall I think that the OâPen is my favorite penlight due to the overall shape which most closely resembles a tail click operated ballpoint pen. The biggest disadvantage has always been the price which is why I was happy to see this sale. For medical use checking eye reactions I suspect that the lowest setting may be on the high side too.
I remember reading somewhere that the very top cap that clamps the pocket clip on could be used to lock out the light. Not on any of mine but the threaded split at the plated ring just below the bottom end of the pocket clip does provide a lockout and the ability to change modes using a twist type user interface rather than the rear switch if desired. Be nice IMO if more lights offered multiple colors of anodized finishes.
