Many years passed, and a sentiment to this an-
gle-head gear remained – the original MX991/U
are in the bpx together with the other reenact-
ment stuff as they, simply, got old. Today they
are large, heavy, powered with the huge D-cell
batteries with short lifetime, and incandescent
bulb, when compared with the modern LEDs,
shines like a large candle. Nevertheless, there is
no denying that a L-shape with a head arranged
perpendicularly to the battery compartment is,
simply, comfortable, especially when you at-
tach the flashlight to the equipment or clothing,
as well as when you hold the flashlight in your
hand, because it does not require an unnatural
bend of the wrist.
Some time ago the Olight offer was expanded with
two flashlights sharing the Fulton DNA. Think about
its micro-version with modern internals. Meet the H1
and the H1R Nova. Generally, the flashlights are the
same, except the fact the H1R is Rechargeable and
can be externally charged (comes with rechargeable
battery). The H1 Nova offers 100 lumens less than the
H1R in the Turbo mode, but it works longer
A few months ago, I received the Olight H1R and today
I can write a few words about it.
