Olight S2R Baton II initial review


First thought I had "Oh, you're a good looking little light! And my second thought was "Oh, you have an SST-40 under the hood, you say?".
I'm a pretty big fan of the Luminus SST-40.
Here's the CFW Custom Lights, M1 LEO light I had to test with this same emitter, it's a great emitter! https://ohlakewalker.blogspot.com/2018/02/cwf-custom-flashlights-leo-m1-light.html

The SST is a CREE XML killer. Fact. Although it eludes me as to why more haven't used this led!


So, let's move on to the light a bit more.

Here's what you get:

Box
Light
Lanyard
2 clips (Black&Blue)
Lanyard needle
18650 Battery
Velvet pouch
Charging cable
Manual


Yes, 2 clips!
One in standard black, and one in the Olight blue. A nice touch, and yes, these clips will work on the versions before this.


The Charging system:

This uses the Olight magnetic charging system. I can confirm that I was able to charge the battery in my charger. Unlike the S1R , which was incompatible. It's a nice, and very fast charging system!

There is LED backlighting to the switch to inform you of the battery level.

 Here's the pertinents :)




  
So, let's look at a few pictures, and then a few short videos.





Here's a size comparison with the Olight M2T

 Wall thickness in the head is thin, versus the body.



Modes video, and brief overview. Pardon my voice.


And finally, beamies!


Summary:
Nice! Well done! My only concern is how thin walled parts of the light are. But the light excels in all other areas.
I like that can I charge the battery in my large charger bays.
I like the multiple clips.
Charging system is nice.
SST-40 LED is fantastic!!!!!!

It may be another month or two, but look for a long-term review.

Go see my friends at SkyBen for this light!
