OLIGHTI1R 2 Pro Eos 180 Lumens EDC Rechargeable Keychain Flashlight, Powered by Built-in Rechargeable Battery with Type-C USB Cable, Slim Mini Handheld Light for Everyday Carry (Black)

For the past 10 years I have been a huge fan of one of the predecessors of this light, the Olight i1R EOS, which is an incredibly useful and bright keychain light at an amazingly low price. I bought dozens of them and gave them to friends and family for years, and I have at least 10 of them in my own home. I recently purchased this model, the i1R 2 Pro, and it's a great addition to this product line.The Olight i1R 2 Pro improves on the i1R EOS in nearly every way; upgrading from micro USB to USB C charging, increasing peak brightness from 130 Lumens to 180 Lumens, and increasing the built-in battery capacity from 80 mAH to 130 mAH. Another great feature of the i1R 2 Pro is that the LED and lens assembly stays attached to the battery assembly when it is configured for charging, whereas the i1R EOS came apart into two pieces for charging, risking the loss of the LED & lens assembly.The only (small) price to pay for the improved specs is a slightly larger form factor: i1R 16.2mm diameter by 52.2mm length (in off position), compared to the original i1R which was 13.9 diameter by 42.8mm length (in off position). I love the smaller size of the i1R EOS, but the improved specs of the i1R 2 Pro are a worthwhile trade-off for the slightly larger size.On low intensity mode (5 Lumens), the battery is rated to last for 12 hours, and on high power it's rated for 23 minutes. This works just fine for the way I typically use the light, as a minimal "moonlight" for navigating around the house in the dark, and as a (very) bright light for searching for dropped items outside at night or inside cabinets or other dark corners. In my experience the battery does not run down at all if left unused for weeks or months, which is a great feature for leaving one of these in every backpack, first aid kit, car glovebox, key ring, and junk drawer.I have purchased a number of different flashlights fro Olight for myself and as gifts, and I'm impressed with their reliability and consistent performance for all products I have used.I use one (or more) of the i1R series flashlights on a daily basis, and I always have one within reach, making it, by definition, the most useful flashlight I own.

I had a Fenix E02R before, and it would flicker on low mode. This Olight stays on solid when you turn it on, and the bright mode can light up a large room. Unlike the Fenix E02R which uses a micro-USB and is somtimes hard to connect for charging, this light uses a USB-C and recharges easily. I carry it every day and had no problems so far. It has a nice wide beam, good for close up work.

Fantastic little light. It is attached to my work van keys and have saved me a bunch of times when I am in a pinch and need some light. Battery life is great, haven’t charged it in months, charging is quick via USB-C. Build quality is great and I do not see this thing breaking anytime soon.

Flash light lasted 3months before it failed. it seems there’s a contact issue. it comes on once in a while.edit: Previously left a negative review for faulty i1R2, immediately received an email from Olight apologizing for the inconvenience and sent a replacement quickly. I was impressed with their customer service. I have other Olight products that are outstanding and I will continue to purchase their products.

Very good flashlight, only giving it 3 stars instead of five because it is larger and bulkier then the original model which is rated at 150 lumsI ordered the original, which is lighter smaller, and appears a little more durable

Have the mini original USBBut I love this one more, super bright, two light levels and the little charger port on the sideIf you love the original, you’ll love the brighter, newer version here

I own about a dozen Olight flashlights. Every model has more than exceeded my expectations. I will keep on buying this brand. I use this on my keychain.

Use this item every day. It has 2 settings. I only use the low setting but it works perfect. Bright is super bright for the size.
