this light will come with a olight 3400mah battery and the same charging dock
and now, guys you can apply to review this light. but you need a light NITECORE P12 or FENIX PD35 and compare with olight S30R.
and you need to tell me your advantage of review this lights. Pls send PM to me, this monday I will tell you the lucky guy and send out the light with DHL express mail.
2.NITECORE has a new tiny monster light NITECORE TM06 ,and they will be arrival tomorrow, if you want a better price, pls also PM me.
It doesn’t run on less than Li-Ion. Specs say it requires a 14500, which is included with the light.
Am I right to be concerned about the possibility of shorting the battery by the charging contacts on the end of the tail-cap? I don’t think I like that design. I prefer my old S20-L2. And the price is a little on the high side, but then again, it comes with a (hopefully decent) battery and charger. Too bad they didn’t increase output either, just added one more low mode.
Well, what’s wrong with 2600mAh? The flashlight is the feature, not the cell. Probably the only reason they include a cell is because the flashlight is designed around it to some degree, and Li-Ion cells can’t be bought at Wal-Mart and Lowes/Home Depot. In that case, it’s a pretty good deal to get a battery of such capacity, as they really could have gone much lower. I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect them to give you a high-end, high-capacity cell. I’ve seen flashlights at my local electrician supply house with a price tag of over $100 with an included 18650 that was 1500mAh, and no included charger.
For me, the issue with including a 2600mah battery is that they are adding a retail price of like $10 to the flashlight with that battery, but a good 2600mah battery is only worth like $2-3 to me and I’d rather they didn’t include it so I could just spend the $9-10 on a 3400 or 3200 high drain.
I found information (read different sellers on the web):
About S15R “Can be powered by one non-rechargeable AA battery as a last resort in an emergency” I supose that they talk about alkaline (I can supose NiMH perhaps is possible). Other web I can read battery Type: 1XAA/ 1X14500 .
I think that 750mA is enough for a 14500 .
The price is higher than the S15, reason, including a 14500 battery brand and its own charger for it. For me Olight is a premium flashlight (I think it is normal price for a premium flashlight).
Thanks for looking that up! Good news, then for lovers of alkalines. I wonder if they say specifically “non-rechargeable AA battery” if they really mean that a NiMH won’t work. Maybe NiMH voltage is too low but alkaline cells’ voltage is enough?

Is your first purchased to a chinesse seller??. Are you worried because you have not received an item after 21 days…… sorry but you must get accustomed to if you buy Chinese sellers…. is normal, also have been on vacation 10 days ago on
Good 2600mAh cell for $2? Used laptop pull or something? Olight adds quality, branded cell with charging ability. You can’t charge regular battery in SxxR flashlight.
for $10 you get a 2600mah which assuming is a decent korean/japanese. you’d be surprised how many 2600mah cells have a flatter discharge curve than the panasonic 3400mah. and don’t forget that 3400mah cells need to be discharged down to 2.5v in order to get the full 3400mah which isn’t gonna happen on the S20R
and you get the cradle and USB cable, with the charging electronics
I think you might find this is a move toward making these items more mainstream. liIon cells have inherent dangers in that the right cells are requried, the right charger, not simply appropriate to the chemistry, but in reality as per for example, HKJs testing procedures. With appropriate warnings as would be required to make these readily available in western societies, muggles are likely to feel uneasy removing and charging them. By selling a self contained unit, the maker has some control over what is being used, and buyers have a new product. It becomes like a Laptop or mobile phone, plug and play liIon.
I think its just a matter of time before we see these start to appear in mainstream stores.
