Olight – S10 Baton Review

I love flashlights. Especially ones that are really bright and come at a great price. A few months ago Kelly from Survival Gear Bags asked if I wanted to test the Olight S10 Baton flashlight out before they carried it. I love getting to test out new gear and of course said to send it.

It has three modes: Hi (180 Lumens for 2.5 hours) Low (50 lumens for 50 hours) and a strobe mode  (up to  6 hours). It is waterproof to 1 meter for thirty minutes.

Gear hack: EDC Pepper Spray + Multitool

Today I have my buddy James from Skillsandgear.com show an awesome EDC hack for your leatherman.

 

Whether you carry a gun everyday or not, it’s a good idea to also carry a less lethal method of protection on your person as well.
