Olight's new rechargeable "S" series of lights is a bold new attempt of bringing tried and true flashlight specs into the modern world of electronics and everyday technology. On paper, the S30R is a solid flashlight: it uses standard 18650 or CR123A cells, puts out a blinding 1000 lumens on Turbo with its XM-L2 emitter, and has unique design features such as a side switch that doubles as a battery indicator and a glow-in-the-dark bezel o-ring. Its real strength, however, lies in its magnetic micro USB charging dock. It charges the S30R through its magnetic tail and can even charge your mobile devices via USB concurrently, allowing you to juice up when outlets are scarce.
