Olight iMini 2 Overview and Thoughts after 1 Month of Everyday Carry


Love this light.  I attach it to all of my carry bags. Instant light when I need it looking for a piece of equipment in my bag at night or in my truck.

Easy, just pull it out of its magnetic case and it comes right on. No buttons to push. When your done, just place it back in the holders magnetic base.

Easy to charge, just remove the clip and protective covering and plug it into any USB port. That easy.

I had one on my daily carry work bag, used it all the time, and it stayed charged for a year, ready to go.

Thought I would share.

Eh, I still keep a Maglite AAA solitaire LED attached to my keys.  I prefer having something non-rechargeable with a common battery that can be replaced easily.  

My EDC pocket flashlight is a clearance 2 AAA hyper tough from walmart (got a few of them).  Great for close work, about 100lm.

What is a diamond level ?   edited

Lol, I had to google this. First I found Minecraft levels then I found o-light diamond levels.

No, I am not a diamond level with o-light and did not know what it meant until you posted this.

I have these Mini 2 o-lights and I have a Baton 4 o-light.  Thats it. I have no other o-lights.

I have a couple of them and they are great. The I1R 2 Pro Eos is another great small light built by O-light.

Interesting, but larger than I want for a key ring.  I try to keep my key ring to a minimum so I've used a Photon then a Photon II since I first saw them at a Sportsman's Warehouse.  I also have them on zippers and pack straps.  I carry a coyote Streamlight MicroStream (hi/lo/off) as my pocket light; it replaced an original AAA Microstream.  The only Olight I have is a PL-Mini 2 Valkyrie I picked up when Amazon had a smoking deal on them.  It's still sitting on my desk.

Just bought two during Prime Days. They were under $12 each.

My uncle is a big Olight fan and gave me a few of these for christmas last year. They are pretty nifty. Im pleasantly surprised I havent lost any of the lights out of the mounts yet.
