Is it an olight arkfeld clone?
It's the same type of flashlight. Hard to say when something is a clone if the specifications are similar.
They share the same basic features: white light, UV and green laser (both class 3A/3R). Rotary control to select the channel, electronic switch in the middle. In addition the E26 has a tail switch for direct access to turbo. The rotary switch also has a lockout setting.
The Arkfeld Pro has magnetic charging, the E26 comes with a USB-C port. The Luminus SFT-40 in the E26 has a pretty neutral tint and is thus much better than the Arkfeld Pro with its greenish light. Output should be similar.
I like the form factor of these lights, but I worry about the built-in batteries. I don't like the idea that once the battery is done, the light is also.
I notice that the back does come off the arkfeld, but I don't know if you can source a replacement cell...
That's my objection to them. Olight is interesting here in that they offer a lifetime warranty for flashlights purchased in in United States of America, Australia, China, France, or Germany in 2023 or later which explicitly covers built-in batteries. That's surprising given that Li-ion batteries are guaranteed to wear out, but it's pretty unambiguous.
We always miss out on those kinds of warranty in the UK, so best to buy one with replacable batts.
Someone could build a light this shape using two 10880 cells in parallel. Someone should.
