Thinking about picking up an Olight Seeker 2, or a Warrior X Pro for the the nightstand for general home security and checking the woods-line behind my house incase my dog roams. Anyone have any experience, or thoughts about these. I won't be EDC it, so size, pocket clip, etc., is not critical. I'm not fond of magnetic charging, but the lights look nice.
Thanks, for any comments you may have.

I own the Warrior X Pro. Impeccable light. It takes a proprietary battery, so I wouldn't necessarily trust it as a critical situations light, but for most uses it's excellent. 8 hours at 300 lumens on low is good as is, and the 2250-lumen high mode will set trees on fire.

I don't know anything about the Seeker 2, but IIRC it has an E-switch and parasitic draw. The Warrior X Pro doesn't have any parasitic draw as far as my testing can determine. That's an important thing for me personally.

Aesthetically I like the Warrior X Pro better too.

Thanks so much for taking time to give me your thoughts. I'm leaning towards the Warrior myself and this helps a lot!
 
Warrior X Pro is more of a thrower, very nice neutral beam.
Seeker 2 is flood with some throw.
Yes I have owned both.
If you want something useful beyond 100-150m get the X Pro.
Throw ratings are based on 0.25 lux which is a full moon lighting the ground, you will see SFA without optics at the ranges some of these lights throw.
