OLIGHTWarrior Mini3 Tactical Flashlight, Dual Switches LED Rechargeable Light with MCC3 Charger, 1750 Lumens Powerful EDC Light for Camping, Emergency and Outdoor (Black)

If you are unsure of which model to get, the answer is both (probably) but read on to find out why.The differences between these two flashlights are battery size, overall size, and maximum brightness. Olight uses proprietary batteries in their flashlights. This is to enable their magnetic charging, but means that you can't just swap another battery into it. Generally it's not a problem because these flashlights have plenty of juice to last for many weeks of normal use. If you need extended run times I'd buy a flashlight like the nightcore e4k and some extra 21700 batteries. These can even be used with a ledlenser powerbank so that you always have 165 days worth of moonlight.For normal usage these two olight models are fantastic and have the added advantage over other models of two switches.So you might be wondering which of the two to get. Well here's the deal. The Warrior 3s is going to give you longer run times of up to 55 days. It will give you a brighter light and longer throw. It is longer, heavier, and thicker in the pocket. I currently carry the Nitecore e4k which is also a 21700 powered light and it is noticable but not too troublesome in the winter when I have bigger pants and jackets to carry it in. I like to have a fill size light in winter time because there are more hours of darkness and it's easier to use the controls on a bigger light with gloves on.In summer time when I have shorts and a tshirt I don't carry a full size light. I often carry a baton mini or a rovyvon keychain light like the A3x. These lights are lightweight but they do run out of juice fasted than I like.The Warrior 3 mini has enough juice to last me quite sometime and is small and light enough to work for EDC. My Nitecore is now going into my medpack just in case I need more brightness or extra run times.You might be wondering if the warrior series lights are bright enough. The answer to that is in most situations I believe so. My E4k puts out a max of 4400 lumens, I have never needed to use the light at that level of brightness. Usually 1000 lumens is plenty of light and often I find myself happily using moonlight mode or maybe 100-250 lumens if I am on a walk or on an outdoor chore.Having more lumens would be better for the strobe setting but I have never used a strobe light defensively nor heard tales of anyone successfully averting an attack with a strobe light so I am going to say that it's not worth considering much.What makes olight the winner is their interface. Press and hold the olight sideswitch for moonlight. Click the side switch to turn on at your last setting. Half click the tail switch to enter high and fully click to enter turbo. I will now be carrying a warrior 3 mini every day and a baton 3 as a backup light. I think the Warrior 3s is a good option but the proprietary battery is less than ideal in a large tactical light for me.Is it a perfect light? Well no. I prefer a warmer tone for the light. This is a cooler temperature, peobably around 5,000k. It is not a high CRI emitter ehich means that the light it emits isn't beautiful. I would love to just have an extra battery or be able to throw in 2 cr123as in an emergency. Every light has to make compromises but all of thr compromises this light makes result in an absolutely wonderful lightweight, long lasting, bright edc flashlight.

Wow, this is the best flashlight I have EVER owned. The battery lasts forever, there are so many modes to choose from, and it doesn’t stop there. The light has an extremely durable metal construction. And looks sleek in any place. Turbo mode is like turning on the sun. This light allows you to see from so far away because of how far it throws its beam, rather than flooding it near you. But it’s balanced perfectly because the light also works well for seeing near. On sale this was an absolute steal and I would absolutely buy this light again even at normal price. The light comes with a clip orientation adapter as well so you can carry the light lens up or down depending on your preference. It’s been months since I charged the light and I carry it everyday and use it regularly. The magnetic charger works well and the beam has a nice cool white color of about 6000k. Look no further on your search for a light. This compact light that you can carry in your pocket functions perfectly and there couldn’t be a better product. Read the product description to see all of the cool modes it has and how long the battery can last. I’m so incredibly impressed. The metal switch on the back also feels super nice and intuitive to use.

The Olight Warrior Mini 3 is an outstanding flashlight that delivers in every way. Its compact size makes it perfect for everyday carry, and the performance is incredible for such a small light. With impressive brightness and multiple modes, it’s versatile enough for any situation—whether I’m using it for work, outdoor adventures, or emergencies. The battery life is excellent, lasting a long time even with regular use, which adds to its reliability. Plus, the magnetic charging system is super convenient. For the quality and features you’re getting, this flashlight is an amazing value for the money. Durable, dependable, and worth every penny—highly recommended!

The Warrior Mini 3 is an excellent compact flashlight and fits easily in my jean pockets. The beam pattern is what I prefer, with a bright center and good spill. I use it for inspections, so the balance is needed. I had the Nano, but it was too floody with a much shorter throw. The larger battery is also good for longer use. I thought about getting the Warrior 3S, but it is too big to EDC.

This flashlight is extremely bright with great features. The tail switch and magnetic charging are phenomenal. The only issue I’ve had is I’be had to reset the proximity sensor multiple times. It occasionally will malfunction preventing me from turning on turbo mode until it’s reset, and in order to reset it the flashlight must be connected to the charger and fully charged. There is no way to permanently deactivate the proximity sensor.

This flashlight feels very well built. It has a lot of nice settings that the bigger brother the warrior 3s but at a more compact size. I think this light fits very nicely in your hand or pocket. I really like the variety of intensity settings, specially the very low moonlight mode. I think this is a nice lite to take on night hikes, it's not too heavy and the battery will probably lasts you a few nights using the medium setting.If you are looking for a compact size light with lots of setting this is the one for you.If you a looking for a tiny little light with almost the same features then I recommend you buy the BATON 4 PREMIUM EDITION. That little light is amazing too.

Compact. Very bright on the turbo setting. Normal and low light settings are also pretty optimized. Variable pressure thumb switch can take some getting used to. Make sure you setup the brightness settings before start carrying or you may flash yourself. Mag charger is great and fast. The dual clip is great for your pocket or hat bill for an extra set of hands.
