Introduction

Olight’s 15th anniversary sale runs from April 21 at 8:00 AM to April 25 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time, with discounts of up to 40 percent, a prize wheel featuring an X9R in OD green, and a free i15 keychain flashlight in coral blue just for logging in with your username. Three products stand out in this lineup: a limited-edition Warrior Mini 2 in pure copper, a new folding knife called the Ratel, and the i15 anniversary keychain light. Here is what each one offers.

Olight Warrior Mini 2 Copper

The Warrior Mini 2 in copper is a limited run of just 6,000 units, and it is the same flashlight reviewers already know, now wrapped in a pure copper body rather than a copper alloy. It ships vacuum sealed in plastic so the copper arrives pristine, and the contrast between the raw copper body and the black bezel, black pocket clip, and rear split ring clip is striking. Olight includes a silicone lanyard, a magnetic charger, and the tactical ring, which grows on you once you thread it through the key ring.

Specs are unchanged from the standard Warrior Mini 2: a maximum output of 1,750 lumens, 220 meters of throw, an 18650 3,500 mAh 3.6V battery, and the typical dual-switch layout with a tail switch and side switch. A short press turns it on and holding cycles modes, half press gives medium, and a full press jumps to turbo. It also retains the proximity sensor, an update over the original Warrior Mini that helped with accidental pocket activation.

Right now it is on sale for $87.96, down from an MSRP of $109.95. Since it is limited to 6,000 units, once they are gone they are gone, so the sale window matters here.

Weight and Handling: What Copper Changes

Copper is dense, and the numbers show it. With hardware like the pocket clip and tactical ring removed for a fair comparison, the original aluminum Warrior Mini 2 weighs about 116 grams (4.1 ounces), while the copper version comes in at 186 grams (6.6 ounces). That is a significant difference you will feel in the pocket and in the hand.

If you are buying copper, that heft is part of the appeal, and pure copper patinas beautifully over time. Anyone who prefers a lighter daily carrier should stick with the standard versions, but for fans of copper flashlights this may be the most attractive Warrior Mini 2 yet.

Olight Ratel Folding Knife

The Ratel is Olight’s new folding knife, arriving in the usual velcro pouch with a hidden pocket holding a branded coin. It uses a 154CM steel tanto-style blade with a stonewashed finish, blue G10 handles, and a liner lock with black liners that have holes punched out for weight savings, plus two barrel spacers at the tail end.

The flipping action is spot on, consistent with the quality of previous Olight knives. The deep carry pocket clip is reversible and rides all the way to the top, and the jimping on the blade spine runs a little over halfway up and feels effective without being too sharp. Dimensions are as follows: overall length 7.48 inches, blade length 3.20 inches, handle length 4.28 inches, blade thickness 0.12 inches, handle width 1.04 inches, and weight 3.96 ounces.

It is currently on sale for $63.71, down from an MSRP of $74.95, which remains good value given the materials and action. Blue G10 is the only color available right now, which may not suit everyone, but tanto fans have a lot to like here.

Olight i15 Anniversary Keychain Light

The i15 15th anniversary edition is the free gift for logging in during the sale, and it is a genuinely useful little light rather than a throwaway. At first glance it looks nearly identical to the i1R 2 Pro, but there are meaningful differences: the body has exactly 15 grooves, five on top and ten on the bottom, marking the anniversary.

The upgrades are real too. The i15 uses a neutral white LED at 5,000K with a noticeably warmer beam than the i1R 2 Pro, paired with a TIR lens and output raised to 180 lumens, about 20 percent higher than before. It keeps the USB Type-C charging port, and the twist interface is the same, with a half twist for low and a full twist for high. The i1R 2 Pro has long been one of the best keychain flashlights around, and the i15 in coral blue is arguably the better-looking and better-specified version, especially since it is free.

Buying Advice

If the copper Warrior Mini 2 appeals to you, buy it during the sale window: the $87.96 price is the lowest mentioned here, and the 6,000-unit limit means stock will not last. The Ratel is a solid affordable knife at either price, but $63.71 makes it easier to justify. And even if you buy nothing, logging in during the sale gets you the i15 keychain light for free, which is a strong upgrade over its predecessor on its own.

Conclusion

This anniversary lineup covers the everyday carry bases well: a premium limited-edition flashlight, a well-executed budget folder, and a genuinely improved free keychain light. The copper Warrior Mini 2 is the standout for collectors and copper fans, the Ratel is an easy recommendation at its sale price, and the i15 makes participation worthwhile no matter what.
