FAQs

How do I check the battery level on my OLight Warrior 3S?

The OLight Warrior 3S features 4-level battery indicators conveniently located around the side switch. These indicators visually display the current battery status.

What type of battery does the OLight Warrior 3S use?

The flashlight is powered by a custom 3.6V 5000mAh 21700 lithium-ion battery, designed for optimal performance and magnetic charging compatibility.

Can I use standard 21700 batteries in the Warrior 3S?

While other 21700 batteries may physically fit, the Warrior 3S is optimized for its custom battery due to specific current requirements and compatibility with the MCC3 magnetic charging system. Using non-custom batteries may affect performance or charging.

Why does my flashlight dim automatically when I get close to an object?

This is a safety feature of the built-in proximity sensor. When the flashlight head is obstructed or too close to a surface on high output modes (High, Turbo, or Strobe), it automatically dims to prevent overheating and potential damage.

What is the maximum runtime for the OLight Warrior 3S?

The maximum runtime for the OLight Warrior 3S is 55 days when operating on its lowest output setting.

Is the remote switch included with the flashlight?

No, the dual-button magnetic remote switch for Weapon Mounted Light (WML) applications is an optional accessory and is sold separately.

How many brightness settings does it have?

The OLight Warrior 3S features 6 different output settings, which can be selected using the side switch for various illumination needs.

Troubleshooting

Flashlight not turning on or output is very low.

Check the battery level using the indicators around the side switch. Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted with the positive end facing the head. If the battery is depleted, charge it using the MCC3 cable.

Brightness dims automatically or unexpectedly.

This is likely the built-in proximity sensor engaging. Ensure there are no obstructions (such as hands, pockets, or surfaces) close to the TIR optic lens. The sensor is designed to protect the flashlight from overheating and prevent accidental glare when on high brightness settings.

Magnetic charging is not working.

Verify that the MCC3 cable is securely connected to a powered USB source. Clean the magnetic contacts on both the cable and the flashlight's tail cap to ensure a good connection. Check for any debris or damage on the contacts.

Side switch feels unresponsive or modes are difficult to change.

Ensure the flashlight is not in lockout mode (if applicable, though not specified for Warrior 3S). Try pressing the switch firmly. If issues persist, ensure battery is charged as low power can sometimes affect switch responsiveness. If heavily soiled, clean around the switch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the most from your OLight Warrior 3S, follow these guidelines for initial setup, understanding its compatibility, and maintaining its performance.

Setup

  1. Initial Charge: Before first use, ensure the included 5000mAh 21700 battery is fully charged. Insert the battery with the positive (+) end towards the head of the flashlight.
  2. Magnetic Charging: Connect the MCC3 USB magnetic charging cable to a powered USB source. Attach the magnetic end of the cable to the tail cap of the flashlight. The indicator on the charging cable will show red while charging and green when fully charged. Expect a full charge to take several hours.
  3. Operation: Press the side switch to turn the flashlight on/off and cycle through brightness modes. Use the dual-stage tail switch for momentary or constant Turbo/Strobe modes for tactical applications.

Compatibility

  • Battery: The Warrior 3S is designed for optimal performance with its custom 3.6V 5000mAh 21700 lithium-ion battery. While other 21700 batteries may fit, performance and safety cannot be guaranteed.
  • Charging: Use only the provided OLight MCC3 USB magnetic charging cable for safe and efficient charging.
  • Remote Switch: The tail cap is specifically designed to be compatible with the optional OLight dual-button magnetic remote switch, expanding its functionality for WML (Weapon Mounted Light) use. This accessory is sold separately.

Care

  • Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the body of the flashlight with a clean, damp cloth. Keep the lens and magnetic charging contacts free of dirt and debris to ensure optimal performance and charging efficiency. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Battery Maintenance: Recharge the battery regularly, even if not fully depleted, to prolong its lifespan. Store the flashlight with a partially charged battery if not in use for extended periods.
  • Storage: Store the flashlight in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight.
  • Thread Lubrication: Occasionally apply a small amount of silicone grease to the tail cap threads and O-rings to maintain water resistance and smooth operation.
