This light blew me away, and I am still in shock how far Olight has come in such a short amount of time. A few years ago I bought an olight weapon light and it seemed poorly made, weak, and cheap. Fast forward to the Olight PLX, it’s really well built, the illumination is best in class and it has decent switches.
Olight sent this out for me to test and I am probably going to pick up another one. I like this better than my Holosun PID, my Surefire X300, my TLR 7, and any other light I have tried thus far.
The Highlights:
- The best illumination from any pistol light
- Solid switches that are easy to actuate
- Adjustable solid mounting
- Great build quality
- Rechargeable with USB-C instead of proprietary charger
- 2 – modes, 1 long range, 1 short range
What I would change:
- I would make it duel fuel with rechargeable and 123A power
- Give it option for outside press switches like the Holosun PID
- Remove the long range mode and the switch for it
For the Olight PLX, these can be had for around $100.
That price feels insane to me, and I would take it over my Surefire any day.
If you go to Olight you can use code “PLXOLIGHT” you can get 10% off of their site.
