Looks like a great light 71mm long 750 lumens with a rcr123, on board charging via micro usb. Compared to the olight s1 baton thats 61 mm long, only 500lumens on rcr123 and no on board charging. Seems like a great choice for those that missed out on the s1 baton drop.

JimmylsxI have both. The Olight is my edc but the Jetbeam is my preferred for camping, road trips, extended time outdoors. Its usb recharge circuit and increased output makes the extra size worth it so you don't have to carry a separate charger. But edc close to home is the stomping ground of the Olight S1.
I also carry a selection of 18650 lights based around the Solarforce L2 architecture with several different drop-in units. For when you need more brightness or extended battery life.
I like the interface on the Jetbeam. If you want strobe to surprise and blind an intruder, just start rapidly tapping the on/off button like a strobe and strobe you will get.
The Olight is the "big light from a tiny tool" champ. Clips to a baseball cap for a good headlamp, clips to your pocket. So small you don't even feel it there. Since you have to have a charger, I use this one close to home. The bead blasted titanium body is tough with rugged good looks. Somebody took their time building this.
I use them both and really like both of them.
