Olight warrior X pro stopped working & charging

Thought it was the batteries, replaced the battery with a 3.6 V 500 MAH21700 but still does not work

We’re very glad to have you here, Jayhawk88!

I’m not a first-hand witness but 1lumen has reviewed the light and say: this.

Here comes a little bummer, in my opinion. Olight uses a dedicated battery and charge system.
That means 2 things.
1: you can’t charge the battery in a standard Lithium-Ion battery charger.
2: you can’t replace the Olight 21700 battery with a regular 21700 battery.

I’ve had similar issues with a warrior x pro bundle I bought in May of 2020. It wouldn’t go into turbo then it wouldn’t go above 5 lumens. They sent out a replacement tail cap, had me purchase a new battery and then wanted me to pay to ship the light to them when all that other stuff didn’t work. I haven’t bought an olight since and steer people clear of them when asked.

They know it costs a lot to return a light. But IF you do, don’t comply with the emphatic suggestion to use the cheapest shipping method (without T&T), because then it’s easy to claim the light never arrived in CN.
