    I was only looking at the one I got last year when sitting in the car this evening and thinking it was great to have and solidly made. Would recommend these 100%, really handy and sturdy.

    Already have 2, will be ordering another tomorrow night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,120 ✭✭✭justshane


    Definitely take advantage of this offer. I did the last time and one of the best bargains I found on here. Sturdy, serious light from it and a long lasting battery.

    I also 100% endorse this product.

    You don't have to actually share anything. Just click on the email button and wait a few seconds.

    They are great lights though so do spread the word :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,451 ✭✭✭blastman


    Another satisfied customer here...brilliant handy little torch


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 40,346 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gumbo


    I got my first Olight from a BA here.
    Now have about 6!

    Use them for work and find them invaluable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,516 ✭✭✭Wheety


    I'll get my 2nd for my house keys. Will be handy if I drop my car keys (which have an olight on them) :D

    Thanks OP.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 822 ✭✭✭SEORG


    This has gone live early, my shopping basket had the light in there today and I was able to complete the order.

    Received a confirmation text from DPD also.

    I registered a new account to check & both have been processed now. I've never actually purchased anything from their site.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 522 ✭✭✭Alfie1


    I tried with my existing account & it said it would be added to my cart tonight at 8pm.

    I can wait !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,971 ✭✭✭_Whimsical_


    Excellent, I love the one I got last time!
    And you aren't even really spamming your friends by sharing because this is genuinely a good deal.

    FOr new users just log in via incognito mode or a different browser after registering and it will add it to the basket.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,548 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    I'm not on Facebook so will that stop me getting it?

    Any suggestions for a torch from them that is similar to the i1r 2 and doesn't use batteries, their website is not great to navigate. I have the i1r 2 but it only lasts about 30 mins at full brightness, which is great but I use mine walking the dogs late in the woods so something that is a next step up would be ideal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,708 ✭✭✭✭Skerries


    30 minutes is good as I think it is only rated for 15
    another size up would be nice though

    I carry one as back up but it's not good enough as a main torch. I use an older version of an Olight S2 walking our dog for about an hour mostly in darkness. Will do 19 hrs on medium which is bright enough most of the time and 4 on high.

    The newest S2R version is rechargeable. On sale this evening for £39 It's pricey but walking on country roads I want a reliable bright torch with good runtime. You can get cheaper 18650 torches but the cheapest ones need a separate charger. This one on amazon isn't bad for a budget brand. Won't be as well made or finished as the Olight but still ok.

    Personally I'm tempted to upgrade and get one of their 21700 lights. The S2 has very good wide flood beam but doesn't throw very far. Would like a light that is a bit more a combination of both.

    I got this pair of torches on Amazon for dog walking at night.
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07QBNKMPB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
    Seem to last pretty long on one charge.

    Says they're not available, but I know there's very similar specced torches that are.

    How long are your walks? Get another one if it’s 1hr walks 2 more if it’s 1:30 etc :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,394 ✭✭✭SCOOP 64


    So its £5 for delivery?

    Was thinking the same, id say the torch is really only worth €5, no way its worth 20 euro.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,216 ✭✭✭PopTarts


    Anyone not have it added? I actually shared it too!

    Don’t confuse this torch with €5 dealz torches or any over the counter torch from
    Your local shops here. They really are on another level.

    And I know that sounds silly for a torch.

    I use mine checking vertical concrete shafts on building sites. The smallest torch is brighter than most of the builders torches that walk around with me.

    No battery, how do you want to power it?

    Is PayPal the only payment option?

    Ha, just seeing that now. Obviously I meant removable batteries like AA, AAA etc.

    They're just using PayPal as their payment processor. You don't need to log in or create an account. It'll take your credit card details.

    Website seems to be a fit funny. It didn't seem to remember my login details so once I actually logged it was there.

    I can probably justify this to Mrs Crinklewood.....the pizza oven could be a different story


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,394 ✭✭✭SCOOP 64


    That was a quick reply, Thanks for your email and sorry if you had issues with this offer. Please see attached image of the i1r2 now showing in your basket, and it is.

    Trust me, once she tastes the pizzas, all will be forgiven. :D

    Hmmm...nothing added to my basket


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,516 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Mine is due to be delivered today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,175 ✭✭✭✭billyhead


    So what's the verdict on these before I order one. Is it that there handy to keep on the key ring in case of an emergency?

    very handy, I have mine on my keyring and use it in work all the time
    that's why I bought another one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,960 ✭✭✭✭Discodog


    Just to reiterate for the doubters. This is a brilliant little torch & well worth the postage cost.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,516 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Received a black one

    I was sceptical about the quality but I have to say I am well impressed.

    It’s super bright and super handy.

    Thanks again OP
