The Marauder Mini Flashlight: The Perfect Addition to Your Everyday Carry Kit
In the Olight Products, the Marauder Mini EDC flashlight is the best one.But the Marauder mini is special since you can switch between beam and spot lights with one switch. That range of beam patterns is extremely helpful.
The brightest output is a remarkable 7000lm floodlight with a beam throw of 600m. That lets you glow a big area quickly. The highest runtime is 43.5h. It also has a strobe mode which is generally seen in flood lights.
Although flood flashlights are usually bigger, the Marauder Mini is just 5.12 inches long, weighing only 16.3 ounces. So, it is one of the biggest EDC Torch in the Olight store.
The big ergonomic rotary knob is how you switch between 7 brightness levels without the strobe mode.
But that is not all, you also obtain RGB colors up to 4 brightness levels in flood mode. So you don’t have to hesitate about disturbing the night all too much.

Factors to consider before buying an EDC flashlight
Primary objective
Some olight flashlights are designed to cater to special needs. That is why keeping the torch's primary objective in mind is very important. For example, it could be for everyday camping, carry, fishing etc.
Lumen output & beam distance
The balance between the brightness of light and how far away it travels decides the torch performance. But the highest lumen output and the beam distance don’t necessarily mean it is top flashlight. Be sure to know the requirement before buying an EDC torch.
Battery type and life
The longer the battery, the better the torch, it is simple. But you also need to consider how long it takes to charge the battery completely. Further, some batteries are built-in rechargeable, and some can be disposed of. Some batteries are not rechargeable and must be changed after their electrical potential is used.
Durability aspects
A torch build standard is the number one durability aspect. You might see how the body is made from premium aluminum, and that is the best example of reliable build standard. But durability is amazingly extended with IP waterproof rating and impact resistance factors. So, ensure the picked flashlight has all that.
Light modes
Most modern torches have different lighting modes across which the light intensity changes.
