Review Summary
The Olight x6 Marauder is a new breed of rechargeable searchlight/ high output illuminator, which surpasses HID technology because you get the benefit of a whopping 5000 lumen output without the bulk, weight and activation delay that you get with many HID lights. It's not too heavy and not too big. It's a technological triumph.
There are 3 main modes (low, medium & high) and an extremely powerful strobe mode. Ergonomically designed, all modes are controlled with a single button that sits perfectly below your thumb as you grip the very comfortable handle.
The x6 uses 6 Cree XM-L LEDs to generate and throw its 5000 lumens over a massive range of 640 meters, which means it's effective for Search & Rescue applications, lamping/ spotting and perfect for illuminating large areas. The x6 can be fixed to a tripod and used stationary to illuminate a big, wide area - the ability to run off a mains power supply makes it great for such an application where a more permanent lighting sources is required.
The x6 has been designed and engineered to dissipate heat quickly and efficiently using a combination of aluminum, rubber and carbon fiber. Over-heating is not an issue.
In order to keep the hand-held weight down, the x6 uses a separate rechargeable battery pack, which comes with a very sturdy and wide belt clip. The battery pack includes a power indicator, so you'll know when you are low. To recharge, you simply plug in the charger provided.
The x6 also comes with a strong and comfortable shoulder strap and the entire kit is packed into a quality, protective flight case.
