Olight Oclip Pro S Review (UAE 2026): 600 Lumens, 365 nm UV and RGB in One Clip Light

Updated 26 October 2026 by the Lumens.ae team in Dubai. The price is in AED and checked against our live stock today. Specs and runtimes are Olight's published figures; we haven't run our own runtime tests.

The short answer: the Olight Oclip Pro S is a 53 g clip light with five lights in one body: a 600-lumen white light, a 365 nm UV light, and red, green and blue. It costs AED 199 at Lumens, in orange, and it's the one to buy if you want UV and coloured light in something you can clip to a cap or stick to a car bonnet. If you only need white and red light and want a longer beam, the Olight Oclip Pro at AED 159 is the better buy. Neither is a main torch: the Pro S reaches 80 m, and its 600 lumens last about a minute before it steps down.

What the Oclip Pro S is

The Oclip Pro S is the newer sibling of the Oclip Pro. It keeps the same 57 × 28 × 27 mm aluminium body, the same 53 g weight, the same 580 mAh built-in battery, and the same clip and magnet. What changes is the light. The Oclip Pro has a flood, a spot and a red light. The Pro S drops the spot, has a single 600-lumen white light, and adds a 365 nm UV light and an RGB light that does red, green and blue.

A rotary selector on the body picks white, UV or RGB, and one button does the rest. That makes it a different kind of light: less a small torch, more a pocket tool for checking things, signalling and being seen.

The white light: what 600 lumens means here

600 lumens is a Turbo burst. Olight rates it at 600 lumens for about a minute, then 300 lumens for 50 minutes and 100 lumens for 30 more. High starts at 300 lumens for 10 minutes, then holds 180 lumens for about 95 minutes before it drops to 100. That step-down is normal for a 53 g light with a small battery: there's nowhere for the heat to go.

The levels you'll use most are Medium, 100 lumens for 3.5 hours, and Low, 10 lumens for 27 hours. Medium is plenty for working under a sink, reading a meter in a dark cupboard or walking from the car to the tent. Moonlight, 1 lumen for 144 hours, is the one to leave on in a tent or a child's room.

The beam reaches 80 m. That's enough for a path or a garden, not for scanning a wadi. The Oclip Pro's spot reaches 120 m, so if distance matters more to you than UV, that's the one to get.

The 365 nm UV light

The UV is the reason most people will pick the Pro S over the Oclip Pro. 365 nm is the wavelength to want: it makes fluorescent materials glow hard without washing everything in purple, which is what cheaper 395 nm blacklights do. It starts on Low (300 mW), and a press and hold switches it to High (up to 800 mW).

What it's useful for in the UAE:

• Scorpions at a desert camp. They glow blue-green under 365 nm. Sweep around the tent, the ground sheet and your shoes before you sleep.
• The UV marks on AED notes. The Central Bank's polymer notes have fluorescent features that show up under UV. The light shows you the marks; it doesn't decide whether a note is genuine.
• AC and car leaks. Technicians add fluorescent dye to refrigerant and coolant so leaks glow. With the clip or the magnet, the light stays pointed at the pipe while you work.
• Checking a flat before you move in. Pet urine and old spills on a carpet or mattress glow long after they've stopped being visible. Close the curtains first.

Two limits. It's UVA, not the UVC used for disinfection, so it won't sanitise anything. And at up to 800 mW it's weaker than the two dedicated UV torches we sell: the Acebeam K1 (AED 269) is rated at 1,000 mW and the Olight ArkPro at up to 1,200 mW, and both have a longer white beam and a green laser. For occasional UV checks the Pro S is enough. If UV is part of your job, our UV torch guide compares all three.

Red, green and blue

The RGB light has two levels for each colour. Red gives 40 lumens for 3.5 hours or 4 lumens for 26 hours, green 60 lumens for 2.5 hours or 10 lumens for 26 hours, and blue 15 lumens for 1.3 hours or 3 lumens for 9 hours. It remembers the last colour you used.

• Red keeps your night vision and doesn't dazzle the people around you: at a desert camp, on a boat, or looking at the stars away from the city lights.
• Green is the brightest of the three colours and easy to see from a distance, so it's the one for signalling.
• Blue is the dimmest. Olight pitches it for marking and identification.

There are also three flashing modes: RGB flashing, RGB scrolling and red flashing. Clipped to the back of a cap or a running belt, red flashing works as a rear marker on a night run or ride. For lights on the bike itself, see our Al Qudra night cycling guide.

Clip, hang or magnet

The mounting is the same as the Oclip Pro's, and it's what makes the light useful. The clip is tested to 10,000 open-and-close cycles and grips material up to 14 mm thick: a cap brim, a shirt pocket, a backpack strap or a belt. It hangs from a keyring or a tent loop, and the magnet holds it to a car bonnet, a fridge or a steel shelf so both hands stay free. For bigger magnetic lights, see our work light guide.

Two things from Olight's manual worth knowing. The magnet picks up metal dust, so wipe the clip now and then to keep the grip strong. And the switch is sensitive to strong magnets nearby. Olight also advises people with a pacemaker or ICD to avoid close, prolonged contact with it.

How to use it

• Choose the light: turn the rotary selector to white, UV or RGB.
• On and off: one press. White comes back at the last level you used, except Turbo, Strobe and Beacon.
• Brightness: press and hold. On white it cycles Low, Medium and High; on UV and RGB it switches between Low and High.
• Turbo: double press on white. Double press again to go back.
• Moonlight: press and hold from off.
• Strobe and Beacon: triple press on white. From off you get Strobe; from on, Beacon.
• Change colour: on RGB, double press to go from red to green to blue. Triple press while it's on to run the flashing modes.
• Lock it: from off, press and hold for about 2 seconds until it flashes and turns off. Do the same to unlock. Lock it before it goes in a bag.
• Battery level: turn the selector while the light is off and the indicator shows the charge.

Charging, heat and the UAE summer

It charges by USB-C in about 1.5 hours, through a port with a dust cover; keep the cover closed when you're not charging. While it charges, white is limited to Low and Medium and UV to Low.

The part that matters here: Olight says it won't charge above 50 °C and shouldn't be stored above 60 °C. A dashboard in a parked car can get hotter than that in a UAE summer, so don't leave it on the dashboard or in the glovebox between June and September. Clip it to your bag instead.

The catches

• 600 lumens lasts about a minute. Buy it for 100 to 300 lumens of useful light, not for the burst.
• 80 m is short. It's a close-range light. Carry a proper torch for distance.
• IPX6, not submersible. Rain, sweat and splashes are fine; a swim isn't. Our IP ratings guide explains the difference.
• The battery is built in. No spare cell and no AA fallback: when it's flat, it needs a USB-C cable.
• We stock it in orange only.

Oclip Pro S or Oclip Pro?

Choose the Pro S if you'll use the UV or want green and blue for signalling. Choose the Oclip Pro if you want the longer spot beam, a separate flood for close work, or a colour other than orange; it's also AED 40 cheaper. Our Oclip Pro review covers it in detail.

Who should buy the Oclip Pro S

Buy it if you camp in the desert and want a scorpion check and a red camp light on one clip, you work on cars or AC units and want UV for dye leaks with your hands free, or you run, ride or walk the dog at night and want a flashing marker that's also a usable light.

Skip it if you need a main torch with long reach or steady high output, a light you can take swimming, or the strongest UV. For a pocket torch, see our best EDC flashlight guide; for UV first, the Acebeam K1.

FAQ

How much is the Olight Oclip Pro S in the UAE?
AED 199 at Lumens.ae, in orange, delivered anywhere in the UAE in 1 to 3 days, with cash on delivery.

Is the Oclip Pro S waterproof?
It's IPX6: rain, sweat and splashes from any direction are fine, but don't submerge it.

What's the difference between the Oclip Pro and the Oclip Pro S?
Same body, battery and mounts. The Pro S swaps the Oclip Pro's flood and spot for a single 600-lumen white light and adds 365 nm UV plus green and blue. The Oclip Pro reaches further: 120 m against 80 m.

Can I take it on a plane?
Lithium batteries go in your cabin bag, not checked luggage, and the Oclip Pro S's 580 mAh cell is far below the 100 Wh limit airlines use. Lock it before you pack it. Our guide to flying with a torch covers the rules.

Do you sell the Oclip Ultra?
Not at the moment. The Oclip Pro and the Oclip Pro S are the two Oclips we stock.

The bottom line

The Oclip Pro S is a clip-on second light with things a normal torch doesn't have: real 365 nm UV, red, green and blue, and a magnet, in 53 g. Buy it for close-range work, checks and being seen, not as your only torch. At AED 199 it's the cheapest way to get 365 nm UV from us.
