via the magnetic pad on the rear cap.
There is also a positive lock to ensure
that connection won't be broken when
the cable is snagged. To avoid snag-
ging the cable, the two-zip ties are in-
cluded in the box. You can use them to
secure the wire to the handguard.
The Odin rail attachment system is
pretty original one. There is a perma-
nently attached "semi-rail" on the body
called rotate-to-slide which we expect
soon to appear in other Olight flash-
lights in the future as it is pretty simple
and universal. The MIL-STD-1913/Pi-
catinny rail mount requires just sliding
on to the semi-rail and it locks in the
desired position. Just turn the lock for
release.
The mount can be used as a stan-
dard side mount or as an offset mount
for lower profile - you can decide on
which side of the mount you attach the
light as there is a slot on the top and
on the side. The offset setup definite-
ly decreases the risks of snagging or
smashing door frames, etc.
The Odin might be released from
the mount which is still attached to
the gun and the light can be used as a
handheld. It works, but it is not as com-
fortable as the popular handheld flash-
lights due the semi-rail causing slight
discomfort.
