OLIGHT Baldr S 800 Lumens Compact Tactical Rail Mounted Light & Green Beam

There hasn't been anything I don't like about this light, so I'll just give the list of things I liked/noticed: 1) The light laser combo is the only way to go, imo. You can always turn one or the other off if you just want one. 2) The laser has held a really good zero after removal & replacement- I wasn't sure if it would, but it's been solid. 3) Just having the light alone, is something more helpful than I thought it would be- even if you don't want to chance the laser being off-target, the light is very helpful in illuminating both your target focus, AND the background, which is just as important. And it will enhance your iron sights, or your Red/Green dot (if you use one). 4) It's small & lightweight. At the very least, try one before deciding you're ok without it because in low light, it could make all the difference and it's got a small footprint.

**EDIT** they screwed up and sent the blue laser option instead of the green laser option I ordered. Decided to keep it because the blue laser is fine and don't want to deal with the R&R process since I can live with the blue option. Not the product's fault at all, this was all Amazon. The product is fantastic. *EDIT 2** Went out to the range today. It was partly sunny, not overly bright and could not see laser dot even through the MRD sight at 10 yds. It works really good indoors and at night, but not well during the day. I bought this to be used for "go bump in the night" type encounters so not a deal breaker but if you want an easy to see laser during the day, maybe not go blue laser or get a bigger MOA or stronger laser or a combination of the 3. I am not sure if the green laser option is visible since they sent me the blue option by mistake. My FN 502 has a larger MOA red laser on it and I could see that one today for a contrasting opinion. This fits my SF Echelon like a glove. I have the 4.5f and it is just a tad shorter than the slide. I personally am not a fan of the lights that extend past the slide. The blue laser dot is crisp and doesn't pixelate at distance as well as being easy to see. The light is normal flashlight level until you dbl click the activator switch and then it's like the sun comes up when the bright flashlight option is selected. You can easily see the blue laser dot with either flashlight setting. The size is perfect for my preferences aesthetically being the same width as the slide and the activator buttons are ambidextrous and easily activated with my index finger. It is not too heavy but definitely has a quality heft to it where you can tell it is not some cheap plastic light. The price point was fantastic being sale for $90 and the value per dollar is second to none. Olight has been a solid name in illumination options and continues to impress. It mounted extremely easily and the provided hex tool made it easy to zero it in. I just used my Osight SE MRD optic to zero it at 12 yrds. The extra muzzle weight makes recoil even less and the tactical look is secksy. The magnetic charger is easy to use with a light in the end connected magnetically to the light that glows red until full charge, then glows green for fast and easy charging. The quick release option is nice but I would have liked a "screw tight only" option as well. We will see how well it holds zero over time with this mounting system. So far, 10 out of 10. I won't update unless I have more to say.

I bought this light because I had so many problems with almost all my Streamlights and Surefires over the years and I was just wanting to try something else! Honestly didn’t have a lot of hope but I liked that it had a laser and the price so figured I’d try it! Have to say it surprised me in every way and I can’t kill the thing! The light and laser are crazy bright, has great battery life, and 1 of mine is on a Glock 20 which is a 10mm beast for those who don’t know and it has always stayed zeroed! I’ve beat the crap out of 2 of them so far because if it’s going to break I want it to happen in the yard and not when it matters the most and they just want die! The original Streamlight TLR-1 is a great light but every 1 they’ve made since like the TLR-2 is crap! You’re constantly cutting off the laser by accident and that’s only if it’s working at all! If Olight ever disappoints me I promise I’ll be back to complain but until then if I were you I would save a lot of $ and just buy a Olight! Bonus is at $120 even when I do finally kill 1 it’s not going to make me want to cry like when a $300-400 Streamlight dies!

I really like the design and fit of the Baldr S. I now own three of them because the build quality and performance keep delivering. The combo of an 800-lumen white LED plus the adjustable green beam sets this light apart. On the Amazon listing you’ll see the green beam output is less than 5 mW, class 3R.  It mounts via a patented sliding rail mount that adapts to both Picatinny (MIL-STD-1913) and GL style rails. One of the best parts: compatibility with holsters designed specifically for the Baldr S is excellent. I’ve used holsters made for the Baldr S + light combo and the fit is spot-on — no interference, smooth draw, and held lateral and locked in place. The mount is low-profile enough to avoid causing major holster fit issues, and my go-to holsters (particularly those listed for the Baldr S) handle it superbly. Quality feels premium: aluminum alloy body, firm mount screws, no wiggle once locked in. Charging is easy thanks to the magnetic USB cable on the built-in battery. Runtime specs are solid — the lightsheet shows 100 lumens lasting up to ~140 minutes when green beam is off. If you’re looking for a compact rail-mounted weapon light that works seamlessly with compatible holsters and offers strong performance, this is one I’d recommend.

Great Light. It works fine. The problem is even though all the information says it works for a Glock 34 - I can’t get the bulky light inside the Safariland 6360 RDS level 3 Duty Holster which is meant for the Glock 34 MOS with light. This light is too tall = 1.41”. It is at least 0.10” too tall, it will not fit in my level 3 Holster, I am returning it. Ordered the Olight that is 1.24” tall, hope that clears the bottom of the holster.

Bright and holds zero good on laser. Only charged it once and it's been months and still bright as before. Lightweight and range is great. Easy to use just need a custom holster now.

This would be better if the laser was brighter. It can’t always be seen in the daylight. The flashlight is good. I didn’t and will not put it on my primary carry weapon. For a nightstand weapon it’s ok I don’t care for the activation switches they’re design could be a little better easier to use but for the price I guess it’s OK

I want some lights on my guns without breaking the bank and I'm very pleased with this light. Battery is decent and love the rechargeable cable without removing it
