Olight Marauder Mini Desert Terrain Rechargeable Torch - 7000 lumens, 600 m range

This device is a real destroyer of darkness! I have never seen so much light from a single torch before, and on top of that it is versatile – it can illuminate both nearby and distant places.

This torch is an absolute beast! I’ve never seen such a powerful light in a single torch before. It’s very versatile – perfect for illuminating the immediate area as well as for use at long range.

This torch makes a huge impression. The amount of light it generates is truly impressive. It also allows the use of both diffused and focused light, and offers three additional LED colours. It’s an excellent product.

The torch looks very good, is solidly built, and visually attractive. It offers both a wide and focused beam, making it versatile. However, I would prefer if it emitted more light or had smaller dimensions at the expense of the coloured LEDs. A downside is that you need to turn the switch to turn it on – so you can’t turn it on quickly.

Good morning. The product is truly of excellent quality. Its advantages are solid construction, high power, and very easy operation. The torch offers various lighting modes: focused, diffused, and RGB, all in one device. I wanted to buy an additional battery, but unfortunately, it's not currently available from Olight. That's a pity. I can wholeheartedly recommend it.

This is the best torch I’ve ever had. However, it does have a serious flaw – after 10 seconds of being switched off, the button locks, and you have to turn the ring 90 degrees to use it again. When I'm on patrol and have to turn it on and off frequently, this is very inconvenient. In the dark, before I can use it, I have to first turn the knob, which is awkward. In my opinion, it would have been better to use a three-position mode switch. Another downside is that you can't set the light output before switching it on – it just displays the last mode used, which isn't always what I want, since sometimes I prefer minimum or maximum power. Despite these imperfections, I'm very happy with this torch and definitely recommend it.

First I tested the larger Marauder Mini model, which is quite impressive, but for me it was too big. So I chose the smaller version – the combination of 7,000 lumens and a focused beam in such a compact size is impressive. Additionally, the ability to adjust the RGB is a big plus for me, although not everyone will need it. I think this torch will be great for sailing and trips outdoors. I bought an extra battery for it and I plan to get another one. The interface and the way it lights up made me order the Seeker 4 Pro as a pocket torch for the city.

I’ve never had such a great torch before. I use it in many situations: during mountain hikes, search operations or home projects. It’s universal, and the battery lasts a long time. Another advantage is the ability to adjust the width of the light beam. For me, it’s simply perfect and definitely worth the price. I recommend it both privately and professionally :)

Very good flashlight. It has a pleasant weight and feels solid. The colour of the case is nice and the light effectively disperses the darkness. The three additional colours are a nice touch.

The torch is very solidly made, sits well in the hand, and most importantly – emits an extremely strong and stable beam of light. The well-designed lanyard is also very practical; once placed around the wrist, it further protects the torch from falling.

This opinion concerns the black, dark blue and orange versions (I don't know why each is rated separately on the website). The packaging looks very professional, although in my opinion it's an unnecessary amount of disposable materials that end up in the bin. From a marketing point of view, it gives a good premium impression, although I personally do not support this. The torch itself (just like the Marauder 2 and X9R which I own) is made perfectly. The indicator LEDs could be, as in other models, more visible because they are faint – during the day they are practically invisible, at night they are fine (I have 5 such mini torches and it's the same in all of them). It is worth considering whether we prefer a focused beam (in this case the Javelot series is much better than the Marauder, especially since the X9R does not have this function), or a wide beam – for this, the Marauder 2, mini and X9R are ideal, and the spot mode is a nice addition. Next, do we want maximum performance available for a short time, as in supercars, or longer operation – in this case, in practice, you'll use the 2-3 lower brightness levels, which is worth realising. The highest power of Olight is enough for illumination, but not for SAR or tactical tasks (that's why I think my Marauder 2 is more versatile, and the differences in size or weight are minimal). It’s also worth considering the working temperature – this is an important factor, especially in our conditions, where long nights are in winter. It is not a topic to be ignored. Likewise – lumens are not everything, you should also look at light intensity in candelas. The Olight charger is convenient and practical, but charging takes too long. I use an external battery charger, but the included cable is great for topping up in the car – I keep the torch in the glove compartment and it’s always charged, without disturbing other equipment. As for the beam shape: despite criticism of the square beam in the Marauder 2, I think this shape is better than the round one in the mini or X9R – the square beam evenly illuminates the object and does not dazzle with reflections. With a round, strong beam, the light closest to us dazzles the eyes, and the far part is poorly visible. Overall, a very good product and worth recommending if the Marauder 2 doesn’t suit you for other reasons.

Great torch, very handy and produces strong light. I mainly use it underground... is it possible to buy spare batteries separately? I’m having trouble finding them :-(

The product is good, although it has two drawbacks – one concerns the battery, the other is the lack of compatibility of the holster with the molle system. The torch works for a long time, is able to warm your hands, and its light fully matches 7,000 lumens.

I am satisfied with my purchase, I recommend it!

Olight. This is simply equipment that’s worth having if you care about reliability at a reasonable price. I spent a long time considering which torch to add to my collection – I ultimately chose the Marauder Mini. It’s definitely one of the best models, offering sufficient power and a long run time on a single charge. Why did I choose the Marauder Mini over the Marauder II? The main advantage is quick battery replacement – after it runs out, there’s no need to look for a charger. Of course, you do need to buy a spare battery, but thanks to this, you gain an excellent light source that surpasses torches without replaceable batteries. Additionally, the Marauder Mini is more compact and fits better in the hand than version II. 7000 lumens will satisfy even the most demanding users.
