never say never. perhaps a tip2+? yeah, the clip is probably meant to be attached to the cap only. but even then i'd be wary...

i agree. very impractical this clip. i'd be careful with the magnetic tailcap too. you may need some effort to remove the light from its tailcap, but if it gets snagged to say a branch or something, you can pretty much kiss ur tip2

yups, correct again. and i guess over time, the friction is gonna give your light some pretty neat 'battle scars'

what, you're still on magnetic strips???

more poison...

the one big box it ticked for me is... price
the runtimes are pretty impressive also

perhaps olight should release the seeker2pro without the mounting gimmick to reduce the price (probably not by much, but still a saving nonetheless)?

another consumer-centric review

now die die also must buy

i kena poison until immune already

well personally i have more olights than any other (at last count, 5), and that's more than i have from any other so by default, i guess olight's my fav... and this is a really good performer

wah... this one not poison, this one santau tahap gaban

that's his only olight. he didnt mention what other lights he brought with him

the s1 is a handy edc and for the most part, serves one well generally. its core strength is its portability simply because of its size. it's a good light to have for short walks and such but yeah, not particular high on stamina. pretty much my urban travel companion, this. i've had my manker u12 along for my jungle treks and it has served me well. it has sufficient juice and doesn't take up too much space/weight. but this seeker2 ... it's really something else, innit. quite the looker... and that runtime. not quite something i need... but definitely something i want

customised to enable charging via its proprietary charger, perhaps? it's interesting that other manus are even considering the 21700 seeing as to how that has been pretty much manker's u12's achilles heel in the past. i hardly had a need to swap batteries before so personally, that's not a concern for me... at least not yet

yeah, the tech is pretty amazing considering its thumbsize dimensions. sometimes people don't even realize that you've got anything in your hands... until lumos maxima! the entire area lights up

by the way, do you guys have any issue with the protective cover of the tini getting in the way of charging? i've ripped off the cover to facilitate charging. as the cover goes back on pretty snugly, i doubt that it would affect the ip, would it? just need to be careful not to misplace the cover

wah... this thread not only light poison, but travel poison also

anyway, i wouldn't be too concerned about the tini surviving the splash as much as i would about the spray affecting the olympus om-d e-m5 II lens (it may be splashproof, but that fine salt can still create havoc)

okay, back to lights...

some nifty additions to manker's range (i can already hear the groans from those allergic to the long press ui )

didn't see these at gadgetworld the last time i went there, and it's not in their webstore either. i get my lights locally so no customs issues there.

oops. my bad. i meant the tc01 and tc02

jack of all trades, master of none. totally understand where you are coming from. personally been considering the fenix fd45 for the longest time. not something that i'd recommend you since it exceeds your weight and price requirements (nor the dimensions, i'm sure). but no, i didn't get that. gotto think long and hard which light to pack nowadays. the flood wins most of the time (pretty much a toss between olight s1r baton turbo s and manker u12), but i do occasionally bring the thrunite catapult v6 along during my treks.

yeah... lots of variables to consider. primarily size, stamina, beam pattern and colour.

the olight i1r eos is pretty much my edc and one that i have on me at any given time. not too concerned about the runtime as it would get me to one of my other lights should the need arise. my trusty u12 follows me on my treks (usually paired a keychain light) whilst my traveling edc would be the olight s1r turbo s.

something like this, perhaps?
