Review : OLight S1 HCRI Mini Baton

https://youtu.be/l6mhvAsB6wc

Not my review, but wanted to show my support for such a small channel. Something a bit different, short and to the point. I hope to see more like this:candle:

I wish special editions of HCRI to appear

I couldn't agree more, this was the best part of buying the older S Mini Baton. The gloss black being my personal favourite

Nice review, I'm holding out for now to see if an emitter swap is possible. If this was with Nichia LED then this would be my dream light.... if its anything like the S Mini Baton then it should be possible. OLight still does the best interface in my opinion.

I don't think we will see an emitter swap in this model any time soon. We do appreciate the compliment on our interface though!

We appreciate the input! We are always open to hearing what the customer base wants!

I was hoping for emitter swap too, especially since its XP-G3 so a reflow for 219 would've been simple but seems like a no go. They have a new bezel design that recesses it into the head to save some length, different than the S mini and even harder to get to.

the XP TIR on the new High CRI SMini gave me similar hope, and someone here has cracked one open... maybe we will learn how a Nichia performs in a mod

To the OP and for everyone's future reference- Linking to an off forum review with essentially no other content could be considered shilling or advertising, and has been closed or deleted in the past. Supporting a small youtube channel is admirable, but do it with views, not links, please. I'll let this and your one other stand for now, but please be aware and don't post like this going forward.

Thanks getflashed, very thoughtful of you to post up my review

Also thanks to you scout24 for leaving it online! I was going to post a written review soon, instead I'll PM it to getflashed to make good on this thread :thumbsup:
