Celebrating 18 Years of Olight: Illuminating Dreams for 20+ Million Users Globally
April 2025 — Olight, a global leader in innovative portable lighting, proudly celebrates its 18th anniversary this April. Over nearly two decades, Olight has redefined high-performance lighting solutions, pioneered cutting-edge materials, and nurtured a vibrant global community of devoted users.
“This 18-year journey has shown us that great products create moments, but great communities create legacies,” said Mavis Xiao, CMO of Olight.
A Legacy of Innovation
From the beginning, Olight’s mission has been clear: Illuminate Your World — not just with light, but with innovation, reliability, and inspiration. As we mark our 18th year, we continue to push the boundaries of what lighting can achieve.
Our breakthrough material, OAL™ aluminum—first introduced in the award-winning Arkfeld Ultra—set a new benchmark for durability, scratch resistance, and strength. Now, this industry-leading material powers our next generation of flagship products, reinforcing our commitment to cutting-edge design and performance.
Building on this tradition of excellence, we proudly introduce three groundbreaking innovations:
l Warrior Ultra – A professional-grade flashlight built with aerospace-level OAL™ aluminum, delivering 2,500-lumen output and mission-critical reliability.
l Oclip Ultra – The ultimate EDC companion, featuring OAL™ construction, smart magnetic charging, adaptive brightness, and a modular design for precision lighting anywhere.
l Sphere C – A multi-mode ambiance light offering 360° soft glow, app-enabled color journeys, and smart scene sync for effortless space transformation.
These innovative products will soon be available in multiple markets, delivering the next level of performance and user experience worldwide.
Additionally, our Ostation X power station marks a major leap in sustainability—offering a reliable, eco-conscious energy solution for users on the move. These innovations underscore our unwavering commitment to meeting the diverse needs of our global fanbase.
My First Olight Campaign
To strengthen community bonds, Olight proudly announces the My First Olight Campaign. Running from March 28 to April 28, 2025, this initiative invites fans to share personal stories about their first Olight product on our Community and Blog platform using the hashtag #My1stOlight.
The campaign celebrates the emotional connection our customers have with our products. Early submissions have already revealed powerful narratives—from a rookie officer whose entire station adopted Olight based on his recommendation, to a loyal customer who has gifted Olight products across three generations. Fans have shared experiences where Olight provided reliable illumination during hurricane blackouts, roadside emergencies, and family camping adventures—proving that when light matters most, Olight delivers.
The first nine award-winning storytellers were announced during Olight’s YouTube livestream on April 12, with the full list of 18 winners to be revealed on April 30, 2025. As a token of appreciation, these inspiring contributors will receive exclusive global limited-edition Oclip18 Zirconium rewards, commemorating their unforgettable Olight moments.
Unmatched Customer Experience
At Olight, customer satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do. Our commitment goes beyond transactions—we build community through innovation and care. The Olight App offers seamless product management and exclusive perks, while our flagship experience store in Las Vegas delivers hands-on service and sets a new benchmark in retail. In Arizona, our 1,000m² warehouse processes 30% of U.S. orders, improving delivery speed by 28%. We also empower fans through the O-Designer Contest, awarding over $20,000 in prizes for fan-designed innovations.
Lighting the Way Through Social Responsibility
We believe no one should be left in darkness. Since our founding, social responsibility has been an integral part of the Olight brand.
We respond with purpose—organizing timely relief efforts during crises such as hurricanes Helene and Milton and the Los Angeles wildfires. With the support of our fans, we donated over $170,000 worth of flashlights and emergency supplies. Our team members personally delivered lighting solutions to first responders and affected communities.
Beyond disaster relief, we maintain long-term partnerships with animal welfare organizations and autism support initiatives. From shelter lighting upgrades to sponsoring interactive adoption events, we aim to create not just impact—but meaningful experiences. Through these hands-on efforts, we bring light, comfort, and connection to people and animals alike.
Looking to the Future
As we move forward, Olight remains committed to innovation and service excellence. In the next phase of our journey, we’re focused on:
l Expanding smart home lighting solutions, such as the Sphere series, to create vibrant, energy-efficient living spaces.
l Advancing EDC and outdoor lighting innovations to better serve adventurers, professionals, and outdoor enthusiasts.
l Growing our global retail presence, including more Olight Experience Stores, to bring hands-on lighting experiences to more users around the world.
We’re excited to evolve and create lighting solutions that integrate seamlessly into everyday life.
