Olight Oamp Night Tour: A Desk Lamp Built for Flashlight Fans

The Olight Oamp Night Tour turns your compatible flashlight into a charged, adjustable desk lamp, with 256-color accent lighting and a suction-cup base for workshop use.

Introduction

The Olight Oamp Night Tour is an unusual product: a desk lamp that gets its light from a flashlight. Instead of a built-in bulb, a small lamp light sits docked on top of the base, and the whole thing doubles as a charging station for other Olight flashlights. For anyone who already owns Olight lights and spends time at a workbench or desk, it is a genuinely interesting piece of kit. Here is how it works, where it shines, and what to think about before spending money on it.

What the Oamp Night Tour Does

The main lamp is the small flashlight-style unit that sits on top of the base. Press down on it and it lights up with a warm white glow that works well as a desk or task light. Press again to turn it off. Double-pressing, or pushing the light up, switches it into a color cycling mode with 256 colors that continuously shift through the spectrum. It is a fun accent effect, though the warm white mode is the one that does real work.

Dimming is handled with a button: each press takes the light down gradually, and another press brings it back up. The lamp head also moves through a 90-degree range, which helps you angle light exactly where you need it. One caveat: the further you tilt it down, the more the head gets in the way of the docked light.

The base itself has a suction cup on the bottom, so it will attach itself to a smooth surface and stay put while you work. That small detail makes it feel purpose-built for a shop bench rather than just a desk accessory.

Charging and Using Your Other Olight Lights

This is where the Oamp Night Tour earns its place for flashlight fans. Any Olight flashlight can sit on top and charge from the base, as long as the base is plugged in. A switch on the top lets you turn that docked light on and off directly, which is a genuinely handy way to control whichever flashlight you have parked there.

If the base is not plugged in, there is no power at the top dock, so the switch does nothing in that state. The base has its own internal battery, and the docked lamp light has one as well, but the dock-and-charge behavior depends on external power.

The Baton 3 Pairing

Pairing the Oamp Night Tour with a small light like the Olight Baton 3 makes for a tidy setup. The Baton 3 pops onto the top dock, charges there, and can be turned on from the base switch. Because it is a small, capable flashlight in its own right, you can take it off the dock and use it around the shop or wherever you need a handheld light, then drop it back on the base to top it up.

The combination works especially well for close-up tasks. You can run the warm lamp for ambient working light, then call on the docked flashlight for a more intense, focused beam when you need to see fine detail in a specific spot.

Who It Makes Sense For

This is not a lamp for everyone. It makes the most sense for someone who already likes Olight products, has a desk or workshop where a task lamp is genuinely useful, and wants the bonus of being able to charge and control their other Olight flashlights from the same base. If you fit that description, it slots into the setup naturally and adds real day-to-day value.

For everyone else, a conventional desk lamp is probably the simpler and cheaper answer. The Oamp Night Tour’s appeal is tied directly to owning other Olight lights and wanting a hub for them.

Things to Consider Before Buying

The MSRP is $99, which is not trivial for a desk lamp, even one with charging built in. Flash sales do come around, so it is worth watching for a deal or bundling it with another purchase if the option exists. Compared with some fairly expensive workshop lights from other tool brands, the price is not outrageous, but it is a niche purchase either way.

One behavior worth knowing: the shake-to-turn-off feature on the lamp light generally works, but it sometimes needs a firm little shake before it responds. It is a minor quirk rather than a dealbreaker, but it is worth expecting.

Conclusion

The Olight Oamp Night Tour is a clever, well-thought-out accessory for a specific type of buyer: the flashlight enthusiast with a workshop or desk who wants warm task lighting, color accent modes, a tiltable head, a suction-mounted base, and a charging dock for the rest of their Olight collection. At a $99 MSRP it is a considered purchase, so watch for flash sales and think about how many Olight lights you already own. If the answer is more than one, this lamp will likely earn its spot on your bench.
