Olight has released the AkrPro, the newest model of their category-defining Arkfeld “blade style” EDC flashlight. This flashlight looks nearly identical to the Arkfeld Pro, but on closer inspection, the AkPro is slightly longer, and it has more upgrades in store.

On its left side, it now has a USB-C port hidden under a metal flap similar to the OClip. The ArkPro still retains the magnetic charging base, which also allows for a remote pressure switch accessory. When charging, a series of bars around the inside of the rotary control indicates the battery charge.

On its right side, it has a small button that activates the green laser pointer. Replacing the laser setting on the rotary wheel, the ArkPro now offers a FLOOD beam setting, which produces a broad flood pattern differing from the OLight’s “standard/spot” style beam. The UV light now offers a high and low output mode.

The ArkPro is everything you would want in an Arkfeld Pro and more, which makes me wonder why they would still offer the older model. The only thing the ArkPro is missing is an analogue Lock Out setting. Maybe that should be offered in an ArkUltra?
