Maybe so, but I don’t review/sell LED lights so that Olight will give me a “freebie”.
I just thought others might not be aware of the opportunity to buy an Olight Ti EDC light. Which are sought after by some.
Oh, and I also think that Olight lantern is “cheap”.
I much prefer my Sofirn LT1, by far.
Update: I edited the thread so that it was less “spammy”, by just providing the item links, and not the Flash Sale link.
thanks, I do think it is cool to hear about a Ti light being available
for me the spammy part was not the sale link, it was the window that popped up asking me to enroll in link sharing to get a $10 discount
anyway… thanks for sharing info
and respect, for offering a direct link
that does not involve refferal or what some call “affiliated” links (people who get a comission for posting a link). thats OK too, if disclosed, I think…
I just watched the OlightWorld video on utoob, and found out the i5T Ti has a clip that does not rotate around like the other i5T’s do. It is milled like the Baton series of lights are. So that it doesn’t allow the clip to rotate.
Wouldn’t that cause the clip to separate easier because it is not allowed to rotate around the light?
I’m not sure if I like that.
I’ll still buy two of them though. One to keep, and one to sell on fleabay, to pay for both of them, eventually.
I’d say they are very different lights!
i5T is 2 modes only, only uses AA alkalines/Ni-MH, forward clicky switch, cool white emitter, much more difficult to mod, eventually more resistant, heavier and longer, and eventually more efficient (not sure of this).
The Tool AA Ti is eventually more versatile, classy, modable/customizable, brighter (on 14500s).
Big difference has to be the AA Tool Ti will never be worth much more if anything over its orig value and it drains the heck out of the 14500 battery with hideous vampire lighted tailcap.
Seems like Olight has the “Sneaker Resale” business model going with the limited edition stuff catering to resellers for the secondary market.
Not knocking it, just saying what is observed.
Like some of the product line but they really need to offer different tints.
well put
yes, I was amazed to find the upsale market for fancy metal olights on ebay
lights which have cool white LEDs, and are difficult or impossible to mod to High CRI
people go where they can make dollars, even if it makes no “sense”
pay hundreds of dollars for a light with low CRI
keep it in a box
and wait to resell it for enough to make a profit after Ebay and Paypal and the Post Office all take a commission…
I call it flipping… no judgement,
just an interesting way of being an entrepreneur in a changing world, without ever leaving the comfort of your home…
Marco Polo had to take a really long trip… now we just spend a few hours clicking… same game, buy low, sell higher
25% off or saving 13$ is ok if you are seriously lusting after this light but the limited edition thing from olight is getting a bit old . Not to mention the never ending inability to mod and tint issues plaguing this companies lights . If they want more sales ..Stop making green tints and add high cri emitters. Make it in the cool colors < then call that a limited edition .
