Miniature Powerhouse Flashlights

The Olight I1R EOS Fits Power in an Incredibly Compact Package

— June 8, 2018 — Tech
The Olight I1R EOS is the perfect example that sometimes the best EDC is the tiniest tool. This flashlight is the smallest to date for Olight -- measuring in at just an inch and a half long -- and despite its size, it manages to pack in a host of innovative features and ease of use. Designed with the “less is more” approach, the Olight I1R EOS is simply turned on with a twist of the body. The first twist will start the flashlight off in its five-lumen mode, while a full turn will allow the light to reach a staggering 130 lumens.

Internally, the Olight I1R EOS uses slightly unconventional components to fit its tiny frame. The LED is a Philips LUXEON TX, which is then paired with TIR optics. This combination provides a wide, smooth beam that is perfect for general close work. The flashlight's battery is lithium-ion and recharged via a microUSB port integrated into the back of the body.
